Overall Satisfaction with Gainsight CS

We use Gainsight CS as our main post sales CRM. We use it to track customer metrics, activities, and help our CSMs prioritize outreach. I love that Gainsight CS mixes product data and Salesforce data into one spot, so the CSMs can use it for customer 360s. We use dashboards to help our leadership get valuable insights on customer data as well as CSM performance.

Pros

  • Product connectors
  • Timeline
  • Playbooks

Cons

  • Easier to use, CSMs get overwhelmed with features
  • Consistency across features (for admins)
  • Ability to log in as users
  • Mass editing for records
  • Very complex system, so it’s been hard for us to get the value
  • Reps don’t adopt it how they should
  • Customer data is inaccurate from SFDC and that causes issues in Gainsight CS as well
Could be more user friendly for people who are just starting.
It’s emailing tool isn’t as robust as outreach.
