Overall Satisfaction with Gainsight CS

Our organization is still new to customer success and Gainsight CS, and I would say we are slowly getting into the walk phase of our journey. The reason we got Gainsight CS is because we did not have a platform for our CSMs to use and manage the post-sale process. The business problems that we are trying to solve include managing/logging customer interactions all in one place, ability to transfer accounts to new owners with no gap in where the previous CSM left off, and ability to PUSH actions to the CSMs instead of them manually identifying the next steps. These actions include when volumes drop/increase, enterprise-wide initiatives, such as product sunsets, and more journeys for smaller customers.

Pros

  • Love the ability to create and push Call to Actions
  • Timeline Activities

Cons

  • Inability to mass create Timeline Activities
  • Discrepancies in where configurations live
  • Inability to sync Timeline Activities to Salesforce as both Events and Tasks
  • Managing post-sale relationships with customers
  • Email automation
  • Surveys
I think the UI is fairly user friendly and customizable for different roles.

Do you think Gainsight CS delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Gainsight CS's feature set?

Yes

Did Gainsight CS live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Gainsight CS go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Gainsight CS again?

Yes

If we were able to get all of our data sources connected to Gainsight CS, it would be well suited for pushing Call to Actions to CSMs for a variety of scenarios. Since we are not a SaaS company, CTAs can be pushed to our CSMs when volume anomalies are detected or if revenue drops or increases significantly. Another scenario where we have found great value is pushing CTAs to CSMs when accounts have been identified that has a product that needs to be sunset and the customer needs to implement the replacement product. Where it is less appropriate would be managing or creating opportunities or other more sales focused responsibilities.
