Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Our organization implemented Spekit in 2024, and it has become an incredibly valuable resource in my day-to-day sales work. I use it frequently for quick searches across organizational information, data sheets, and internal resources, saving time and keeping everything easily accessible. Any team or organization that adopts Spekit will see meaningful value.

Pros

  • Information Lookup
  • Quick Search
  • Ease of Use

Likelihood to Recommend

Only positive things to say about the solution. It has been an incredible resource for our teams and thinking back to when we didnt have it, I would spend so much time looking things up manually in a share drive and share point. Now I can just lean on Spekit to find what I need in real time which is huge when needed during calls.

Just-in Time Learning Done Right

Rating: 10 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

At Cardinal Group (real estate/property management), we utilize Spekit to deliver just-in-time learning, primarily to our teams of onsite operators. We roll out a lot of new processes and technology, so having a dynamic and contextualized tool like Spekit has been a huge asset for us. Most of our content provides step-action guidance for various tasks throughout the property management systems we utilize.

Pros

  • Addressing feature requests
  • Enabling rapid authoring, even for first-time users
  • Displaying actionable data analytics to inform our content maintenance strategy

Cons

  • Frequent version updates broke the force-install provisioning we attempted in Chrome (but haven't revisited recently)

Likelihood to Recommend

Spekit excels at delivering contextualized guidance to users, especially those new to systems/processes. It aggregates information in one location to improve searchability, especially when leveraging the AI Sidekick functionality. They're rolling out some new features related to content creation and organization that we're looking into leveraging for new hire onboarding.

How Spekit Transformed Our Knowledge Management and Productivity

Rating: 10 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We launched Spekit over three years ago as a just-in-time resource for our sales team. Before Spekit, our information was scattered across multiple platforms, making it difficult for reps to find what they needed quickly. Spekit allowed us to consolidate everything into a single, easy-to-access source of truth.

Today, our team goes to Spekit first for answers. The feedback loop is excellent—when updates or new content are needed, we can make changes quickly and keep information accurate and relevant. This has saved us thousands of dollars every month in productivity. Reps can find answers on their own, and managers aren’t constantly pulled away from other priorities to answer repetitive questions.

Spekit has truly transformed how we enable our team and maintain knowledge. It’s an indispensable tool for driving efficiency and empowering our sales organization.

Pros

  • Consolidate scattered information
  • Organize playbooks into bite sized pieces
  • Answer questions in real time, no waiting for answers

Cons

  • Need to be able to schedule spotlights
  • Would love to be able to save speks as drafts if they aren't quite ready to publish

Likelihood to Recommend

Spekit is wonderful for companies that have a lot of resources or information that lives in different places. Also, for those that have a lot of processes.

It is a great onboarding tool to get quick answers for those that are new to a company. It empowers them to find answers on their own quickly and easily.

It may be less appropriate for very small businesses that don't use computers very often in their work flow.

Spekit is easy to use and the best option

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Use it as a place to find and store information and training materials. When I started working here I had all of my onboarding in Spekit and now I use spekit to find resources when I have questions. It is easy to use and was very helpful both when I was brand new and still to this day.

Pros

  • Training
  • Storage
  • Reference

Cons

  • Could be a little easier to navigate

Likelihood to Recommend

I do not know of another software or service that does all the same things Spekit does for us. So if I were asked I’d sure recommend what I know and like. I think Spekit is great at what it does. Can’t imagine what else id recommend to someone asking.

Stellar Tool for Customer Facing Teams to Find Content

Rating: 9 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We implemented Spekit in a Sales Organization use-case. We needed Speks/ Spekit accessible in Salesforce to guide sales representatives through the stage gates and key fields in our new Sales Process. Our team has also included key Marketing materials within Spekit to have reps find what they need when they need it. This has now expanded to our Marketing and Renewal Management group due to the success of the implementation.

Pros

  • Customer Feedback- I have a voice!
  • Stellar Implementation Support
  • Great Customer Communication
  • Accessibility of CSM/ Account Team

Cons

  • Click Through Analytics
  • SharePoint Integration (very new)
  • Dashboards -although improvement consistently

Likelihood to Recommend

I would recommend Spekit for use cases for any customer facing group or even internal support team. This tool is useful if have several disparate systems and need a reference Chrome Extension that can follow you wherever you are in your workflow. If you are trying to solve the problem "content lives in too many places", this is the tool for your organization.

Best option out there for "just-in-time learning!"

Rating: 9 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Spekit is the just-in-time learning platform for our Sales & Customer Success team. When our customer-facing team members need information in the blink of an eye, they turn to Spekit. Spekit not only has a instance for our organization, our teams also utilize both their browser extension and embedded links - particularly in Salesforce - for quick reminders, hints, and tooltips in order to save precious time when preparing for and on calls with customers.

Pros

  • Embedded links on multiple webpages but especially Salesforce
  • Browser extension that doesn't take up too much real estate
  • Creating Speks has gotten even easier with improved formatting options and AI assistance
  • Our Spekit CSM is exellent to work with

Cons

  • Could use a Confluence importer tool to make migrating pages easier

Likelihood to Recommend

Spekit is extremely well-suited for customer-facing teams who truly have a business need for "just-in-time learning." While we all benefit from the concept of just-in-time learning, organizational representatives who must perform to a high standard in front of external-facing stakeholders particularly benefit from having quick access to processes, definitions, answers, contacts, and more in a tool that is easy to navigate.

Spekit may not, however, be well suited for cash-strapped organizations that already have a content management tool like Confluence or Sharepoint and can't afford to meet their customer-facing teams in the middle. While Confluence and Sharepoint serve very important needs, they don't do a particularly good job of making content easy to find in a pinch. Spekit does.

Spekit - another search tool but it works

Rating: 2 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We have so many "documents" in G Drive, Confluence, the website, and other places. It's ridiculous and truly hard for any new person to join the organization. Where should we go to find XYZ stuff? Who knows! And search really doesn't do any of this justice.

Spekit is just a good search tool across many systems. It solves a problem that shouldn't be a problem, but clearly it is. This takes rapidly growing orgs who do not structure their internal systems in a sufficient way - to search across it all! Lovely.

Pros

  • Search! They will look across all the different verticals to help you find all of those documents.
  • One place for all docs, it's really good at finding all the content and explaining what tools mean for new people.

Cons

  • Honestly, there are a lot of tools that do the same thing - there are lots of search tools for orgs that use too many tools to host content.
  • I truly despise all the little helpers when I download the extension. Its the worst, stop cluttering my chrome.

Likelihood to Recommend

Good situation: when you have way too many tools hosting content, Spekit is great at bringing everything together so I don't need to remember where things are hosted. I just need to know ish how to search.

Bad: I feel like it still doesn't help people discover content nearly as much. The nice thing about a confluence or other systems like that is that there are resources right in front of you, VS having to know what to search for. Also, I hate the extension, stop cluttering up Gmail.

Spekit is great for in-solution training!

Rating: 8 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are using Spekit across our entire organization. We start using Spekit to aide the adoption and training of FinancialForce, which is our new ERP system we adopted in 2020. Spekit has been great for answering those quick questions team members have and providing in-solution guidance when people are trying to navigate the functionality of a complex system like FinancialForce.

Pros

  • Simple and easy to use
  • Ability to use it for simple things and also complex things
  • It's embedded directly in Salesforce and FinancialForce

Cons

  • I get logged out a lot and I don't know how that happens
  • Some of the toggles get in the way when I'm scrolling or on certain screens

Likelihood to Recommend

Spekit has been great for answering those quick questions team members have and providing in-solution guidance when people are trying to navigate the functionality of a complex system like FinancialForce. What I also like about Spekit is that it's great for very simple tasks like tracking time and providing guidance on how to do so, but also complex tasks like building a project plan.

Eases the burden of change management

Rating: 10 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Spekit is embedded in our internal enterprise platform and is used across the entire entire organization. Spekit helps with ongoing training and helpful reminders of system processes, nomenclature, and best practices. It aims to solve the ongoing business problem of keeping employees up to date when new system features are released over time.

Pros

  • In-app speks (similar to tool tips) that link to more detailed instructions when necessary
  • Robust topic library
  • Ability to share speks with colleagues

Cons

  • The speks sometimes get in the way or are difficult to close out

Likelihood to Recommend

If undergoing a major internal application or software overhaul, Spekit is a great way to ease the burden of change management.

Spekit makes my life easier!

Rating: 10 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

My company rolled out Spekit as a tool to help train the organization on our new ERP software. Before the ERP, we had numerous platforms used in different ways depending on the teams utilizing them. Our company is made up of roughly 150 people across three offices, so individual training wasn't an option. The rollout of the ERP was also scheduled during COVID, so all training and communication was handled virtually. Luckily the Operations team managing the implementation of the new software utilized Spekit as a training guide to better educate individuals on the ins and outs of the new tool.

Pros

  • Centralized hub of information.
  • Updated design makes me feel like I'm using a tool from this century.
  • Easy search functionality: I can easily find the topic I'm looking for using a few keywords.

Cons

  • I experienced some bugs with the Chrome extension.

Likelihood to Recommend

Spekit is a great tool for mid-sized and large companies, especially when all employees can't be in the same room at all times. It's a great resource for Operations teams to communicate to their organization without the hassle of creating decks and scheduling training sessions.
