Overall Satisfaction with Totango
Used by the sales team to follow customer's journey (on boarding, usage, renewal cycle).
Used to automate messages to the customer during this timeline.
Used to automate messages to the customer during this timeline.
- 360 view of the customer.
- Nice UI.
- Good for strategic thinking of the accounts.
- Good for automated messages.
- Not made to manage your pipe of renewals effectively.
- Not suitable for task management (can be overwhelming because of lack of automation to automatically delete tasks based on criteria).
- Not good to send emails directly within Totango.
- Email assignment to each account not intuitive (would need an integration with Gmail).
- Lack of value compared to Salesforce.
- This will help identifying quiet customers that are not happy or not using the solution.
- If the CSM and Sales Team are the same, it will add another tool to maintain for the sales team (loss of time).
- Outreach
As a sales rep, I found more value with Outreach (sending email from the tool, creating a sequence for myself, easier task management, a better view of the level of engagement at an account level) because the tool was more useful to me as a sales rep, I was naturally logging in the tool every day. I don't think Totango has more features than Outreach.
