Overall Satisfaction with Gainsight CS

I am an Admin for our Gainsight CS instance, so I use a wide variety of Gainsight CS's features to solve a wide array of issues, from generating customer health scores to sending 1 to many issues. The product is able to handle nearly all of the varied tasks we throw at it and provide our CS teams with a central tool that provides for their needs.

Pros

  • The support for 1:many emails is itself a positive, and in general, so is the Journey Orchestrator tool, especially more recently, as over the last year or so there have been a number of improvements.
  • Providing a log of customer interactions.
  • Reporting.

Cons

  • The email template editor itself though, which is a tool within journey orchestrator, is required to support the use of 1:many emails. While great improvements have been made in the move to current version of the editor, there are still times where work is lost, or the behavior in preview does not align with what is actually output to inbox (such as extra whitespace being added following a token in an email’s subject line), which can be frustrating.
  • Improved support for multi-select pick-lists thought the tool.
  • Success Snapshots are still more clunky than helpful in some cases.
  • Providing visibility into customer interactions
  • Managing customer health scores
  • 1:many outreaches
Gainsight CS has a richer feature base.

The tool is largely helpful, and great when you have a specific vision for what you'd like to implement, but in some cases, there are minor gaps in functionality that can be frustrating. Thankfully the team is generally receptive to feedback.
