Khoros Care review
- Real time ticketing, so if someone updates something, a refresh is not required.
- Allows for creation of queue's to separate unnecessary volume.
- Real time reporting to help supervisors manage agents to ensure work is being done.
- Search function does not search within profiles, which would be helpful when trying to find a specific customer conversation. Unless the info you are searching for was provided in the chat of the conversation, it wont find anything listed in the profile section.
- Manage tab is not exactly user friendly.
- Being asked to always provide a .har file when the issue we're reporting is not something a .har file can capture very easily, and it causes us more work when we don't have the time as it is.
- It allows multiple teams to work together across multiple channels.
- Tracking conversations and measuring volume and sentiment.
- Analytics.
- The legacy Spredfast tool used to have a "translate" functionality that was really useful.
- Integration with the Khoros Marketing tool for the teams that handle both aspects.
Tell it like it is!
- Receiving inbound communications
- Agent reporting
- Response publishing
- Inbound communication routing - Keywords and regex rules only go so far. Routing by priority would be helpful.
- Support - The support team is not always helpful and it often takes more than one phrasing of the question before they understand the ask.
- Sales Team - When support is requested in annual reviews we are met with up-sell pitches rather than help.
- Account management - We love our account manager, and he is helpful in escalating support issues but would love for more strategy support from him.
Khoros cares about the customer's experience
- Automatic prioritization
- Auto tagging for issues
- Our account managers are always very helpful in providing insights and best practices
- I would like to be able to see deleted comments/tweets so we can look into the issues.
- I would like to be able to better customize dashboards for our exact metrics. Some things previously available in Spredfast are no longer available in Care.
Good solution - needs to evolve.
- Case handling of social media posts - Khoros is able to gather social media posts across the web and bring them into a support CRM system that treats those posts as cases and allows us to handle them in a way that is appropriate for support.
- Collaboration - social media cases are handled with easy collaboration across teams of all sizes.
- Simplicity of user interface - Managing many social media posts can be a challenge, but Khoros's solution allows you to address these posts easily by simplifying the UI and bringing only the necessary information for the agent so that they aren't overwhelmed with too much information.
- Khoros as a company has changed over the last several years, but more so in the last year, where we have seen our company's needs being met with a lessor priority over newer clients that pay a higher price for the same solution (due to us getting involved early on and being existing Khoros Community customer at the time, we were locked into a lower rate). This was seen as the service level and service engagement has slowly been fading away. Our Customer Success Manager was re-assigned, and we were told that the CSM role was being eliminated, but it turned out that the elimination was specific to our company. It was clear that Khoros valued getting more money out of our company than maintaining a relationship when for the first time in our 5 years using the solution, a 6% y/y increase in cost clause was discretely added to our contract during renegotiations.
- Khoros solicits "ideas" from their customers on the community. If the idea doesn't get any traction from the community, it is archived. If it does get traction and a lot of community members want the idea to happen, then it simply moves over and sits in a queue perpetually. There are many great ideas that are there that will help grow the Social Media Customer Care needs, from the experts who lead in the industry (because they're evolving quicker than Khoros can catch up), but Khoros doesn't execute on the vast majority of the ones that have community support.
- Khoros has been focusing on the Social Marketing space in the last couple years, and it makes sense. However, the development of Social Marketing functionality has slowed the development of Social Media Care functionality to where you'll see in the release notes that most new features are geared towards marketing, with not much for care.
- Whenever new functionality is released for Social Media Care, Khoros will require additional payment for said features (which is weird for a SaaS company) - this causes us to have to be in constant budget asks internally and constant contract renegotiations because Khoros doesn't consider the features worth the investment that has already been given to them by our company.
Must-Have if you have Khoros Communities
- Manages and pulls in posts from communities, Facebook, and Twitter so we can address them in one place as opposed to logging into each site natively.
- Khoros Care has great analytics. I like the customizable dashboards; we use them for weekly reports to upper management.
- Khoros Care helps our social media manager manage and monitor our teams.
- Not sure if it's because of our SSO, but it's annoying to have to log into our community again when I click on a community username within Khoros Care. I'd like to go straight to their community profile without this extra step.
- We don't use the TKB, so it would be nice if we could remove that as an option in the right panel. I always have to click on the Templates tab because by default "KB" is shown. I'd rather have Templates showing instead.
Khoros Care - Great for Care!
- Multi Platform Integration - It is fantastic to be available to our customers throughout the digital world.
- Representative Workflow - The platform allows for a customizable workflow that you can utilize to meet your demand, while not overloading your employees.
- Customer profile - The tool allows you to build a profile for each customer. As long as you identify a primary account to each contact, you can build a comprehensive profile which includes contact history and linking to multiple digital channels.
- Support - Sometimes items can be seen as "minor nuisances" and not handled in a timely fashion. However, those "minor nuisances" often cause disruptions in workflow and slow down our internal company efficiency.
Khoros Care helps get your comments out there fast!
- Showcase conversations in a visually easy to understand way.
- Allow sorting through conversations.
- Allow for better grouping of conversations with the same user.
- Better sorting through of power users/people who comment multiple times. Would be nice to have an icon next to their name that says "replied 1x" or something like that.
Best social care tool in the business!
- Route and prioritize incoming volume
- Analytics
- Seemless integration of multiple channels
- More Analytics!
- Tools for managers are a little bit lacking
