  • A wealth of OOTB functionality, keeping customization light if preferred.
  • Insightful analytics built into the platform.
  • Automation rules that can be written to update permissions and send emails. (Lots of capability to tap into here.)
  • You can control permissions down to the content level.
  • Accessing user view widgets for personalization.
  • Blogs can be saved in draft state for editing and can be set to publish at a future date. I schedule out 3-4 weeks of content at a time!
Cons
  • Because of the detailed permission structure it can take some time to assign permissions to new groups. I believe Telligent is working on permission inheritance for a future release.
  • Cannot edit tags without editing content.
  • Would like to be able to report on content by keyword. Results such as how many pieces of content contain a specific keyword, when they were created and by whom. Tag cloud is available but would like a report to share with our business units.
  • Verint does not market this hidden gem.

  • Customization/flexibility - The platform can be truly made "yours." How far to take this can depend on what skillsets or budget you have available for customizations, but customers have an opportunity to provide an unparalleled experience for members. Almost every aspect of the site experience can be configured which seems to be a unique offering.
  • Customer service - They have a very active community filled with fellow community managers and developers who are eager to support one another. The Verint staff is extremely engaged, always offering to help, accessible and transparent when sharing insights, and generally pleasant and supportive! The ideas for improvements that I've received from the Verint team or fellow customers have been invaluable.
  • Affordable - In our vendor selection process, Verint came in among the lowest in price AND highest in value.
  • Flexible hosting environment - Choose if you want them to host and manage the back end, or if you want to host yourself. Not having to worry about server maintenance is a huge weight off the customer's shoulders, and you don't have to decide whether to sacrifice hosting for flexibility.
  • Integrations - The platform API is robust and well-documented, so you can integrate the site in any way you want into your existing systems if you have the proper knowledge.
  • Edit - After doing some roadmap planning with my team for the next year, I'm extra excited about this flexibility. We've planned out some really interesting and impactful updates for our community members that would likely not be possible (or as easy) on other platforms.
  • Transparent roadmap and ideation process - The Verint team really listens to their customers and implements improvements to the platform based on customer input. They readily share what's coming soon and keep realistic expectations on what will (or won't) be done and when.
  • Edit - The most recent roadmap updates seem to have a well-planned schedule over the next year or so and are looking to benefit new and existing customers. Not all of the new functionality is relevant to me specifically, but I'm excited about the updates and how they'll impact me as an administrator and my community members.
Cons
  • More flexible reporting - There are a lot of reporting options, but the inability to create your own custom reports is a challenge. I know this is a pain point for other customers and the Verint team is working on better ways to improve this. This can also be worked around by pulling data from the APIs or exporting to Excel and manipulating it in other ways which are not ideal, but worthwhile if the needs arise.
  • Upgrade process - This can be cumbersome and daunting, even on a site hosted by Vertint. There is still a lot of responsibilty placed on the customer/site admins, but upgrades aren't forced either as the customer gets to choose when to perform the upgrade.
  • Exporting - individiuaul content details are difficult to export from the system (e.g. a list of forum posts or ideas)

Community easing pain points.

Cons
  • Sunsetting items, if an item is sunset have a list of where that item is interlinked throughout the community.

  • Excellent documentation for site administrators and community managers
  • Good APIs and 3rd-party integration support
  • Excellent tech support and customization through professional services group
  • Robust algorithms help connect users with related content and useful push notifications
  • Top-notch reporting capabilities make it easy to gain insights into value provided by interactions within the community
  • SaaS and on-premises configurations available
  • Automations, leaderboards, ideation, and role-based permissions offer efficiency and flexibility
  • Product has proven track record
Cons
  • Built-in themes are limited and require licensed 3rd party plug-ins or web developer to design more engaging user experiences than what is available out-of-the-box.
  • Most worrisome: Community seems to be Verint's forgotten product despite being solid and dependable. Engage conference features less and less content each year for this product. Little to no promotion, tutorials or how-to videos make this appear to be a less important focus for the company compared to their other products, which many users don't particularly need.
  • There's a reason the Community product was at the top of Gartner's list more than a decade ago. Your team was a leader in this category. Even though the enterprise community software segment has changed in the ensuing years, building sustainable communities is now more difficult than ever. Those of us responsible for building communities need your voice and leadership more than ever.
  • Please be vocal champions of "community of practice methodology" and what you know better than most of your competitors: The best practices of building and sustaining communities of practice.
