Lead business Analyst in Professional Services at LeadSquared (1001-5000 employees employees)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We used Rocketlane to manage project timelines, milestones, timesheets, and status updates for internal and external stakeholders. Business problems addressed by Rocketlane are giving complete transparency and visibility for the teams to manage the project timelines and delivery. I would say it is more of a project management tool. Scope: Plan resource utilization from the project timelines and keep external and internal stakeholders aligned regarding the project timelines, tasks, and status updates. Also, to fill the timesheet.

Pros

The project timelines and tasks feature is nice.
Status updates can be published, which can be seen by external stakeholders/clients even though they are not on Rocketlane or they have not taken Rocketlane subscriptions.
Timesheets can be easily tracked through which resource utilization can be planned.

Cons

Because of too many features, load time has become a little slow.
Sometimes, the feature was not saved. Forex, we wrote something in the task description that was not saved, so the auto-save functionality should be there.
If it can be integrated into Google Meet or Zoom and log the time from the calendar, we don’t have to fill timesheets and create tasks manually.

Return on Investment

Lesser onboarding and implementation time (Reduced from 3 months to 2.4 months.
Increased resource utilization.
10-15% lesser escalations.

Renee Ramig

Director of Customer Relationships in Customer Service at Vidigami (51-200 employees employees)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We require annual onboarding from all of our almost 400 customers. Rocketlane is used to manage this onboarding process. It allows the customer to have step-by-step instructions with links to pdfs and videos on what they need to do. But it also gives us visibility into where each of our customers are in the onboarding process. Customers can send messages from within Rocketlane which show up in notifications and can also be sent via email to ensure we are fully supporting our customers.

Pros

Gives visibility into where in the process each customer is.
Allows for different processes created for different customers.
Creates a portal for customers to see and interact with the entire process.

Cons

It would be helpful if Rocketlane had a more robust Knowledge base and customer support portal.

Return on Investment

Being able to support each customer with visibility into where each is in the process.
Better communication with customers related to onboarding.
Took a bit of time to figure out how to best set up for our company and learn how to use it.
