Overall Satisfaction with Chatter

We use Chatter for technical questions and capabilities of our software. It is a space where Sales Reps can post questions to understand functionality. This could be asking about ERP integrations, SSO capabilities, etc. The main departments that use Chatter are Sales Reps, Support individuals, and Solutions Consultants. It is a great way to have questions answered and a search so the same questions isn't brought up all the time.
  • Easy to see answers to questions.
  • Does a great job of allowing users to add links or PowerPoints to highlight answers.
  • Able to break down barriers of having reps across the nation.
  • It is not always easy to Search for former Topics.
  • This is more how we use it but Groups should be easier to navigate.
  • Notifications.
  • Biggest ROI has been helping manage or technical solutions consultants time by consolidating questions.
  • On the down side it can be frustrating to wait a few days for an answers.
  • Provides clear direction of where to start for help.
Because Chatter is tied into our CRM I feel it is easier to use. Teams is better for instant answers and chats. Chatter is better for a data storage of ideas and answers. While they both have there advantages It is hard to say which is more valuable on their own.
If I ever came to a situation where i needed help they do a very good job of getting back to us quickly to explain our error or why we are not seeing something. The support is quick to help provide groups or teams if you seek. Fortunately it is user friendly so I rarely need support

Do you think Chatter (discontinued) delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Chatter (discontinued)'s feature set?

Yes

Did Chatter (discontinued) live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Chatter (discontinued) go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Chatter (discontinued) again?

Yes

If you have many people in the same organization that will have similar questions it is great for providing direction of where to find answers. I don't feel this is the best place if you are wanting instant messages and many comments on one question. This is generally best used to pose a questions and have one or two best practice answers from your org.
