Overall Satisfaction with Khoros Communities

We use Khoros Communities in the wider context of our digital customer help. It allows us to deflect calls into our customer contact centers. It allows our customers a place to discuss our great products and help each other out. We also make use of the space to run product trials.
  • Has all the features and discussion styles you could need including standard discussions, knowledgebase, reviews, gamification, Ideation.
  • Easy to use analytics built in with downloadable reports.
  • Great success services to help make sure you get the most out of the features.
  • Need to be quicker at reacting to customer suggestions for product improvements.
  • Slight lack of focus on the community part of their product range in the last year or so
  • Would benefit from a more transparent roadmap with dates!
  • Increase in call deflection
  • Increase in customer closeness
  • Better products through customer trials
We've looked at many platform providers as an alternative in recent times and have recently re-signed with Khoros. InSided, Vanilla, Salesforce, CMNTY, etc.
The Khoros solution is probably better suited to a larger enterprise due to the huge number of features and discussion styles - a smaller operation may find costs prohibitive. Particularly useful if you have a social media management need as well as they also cater for this in their product range.
