What do you like best about Gainsight Customer Success?

All of the different dashboards options which allos so many columns of different data to pull in is exceptional. Also being able to filter down any dashboard as you need and the ability to make specific insights per individual is very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gainsight Customer Success?

I dislike how putting downloads a google sheet or excel always creates an additional tab for the filter views, and how I cannot append to a current tab. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gainsight Customer Success solving and how is that benefiting you?

Solving the need of viewing an account's data at an individual location level as well as a whole brand level. It also is so helpful to have the insights call out all of the important data points to quickly have available for a partner calling out of the blue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Gainsight Customer Success?

I have been in Customer Success for so long, that I remember life without a CSP. Back 'in the day' we CSMs would need to 'check out' a sharepoint, update client data and pray it saved.

To have all customer data in one place is key. It speeds up collaboration and customer facing readiness. The reporting is phenomenal. The staff the best part. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gainsight Customer Success?

My biggest 'gripe' is I wish we could send generate surveys for customers with a link I can send in a non-gainsight issued email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gainsight Customer Success solving and how is that benefiting you?

Customer insights available to all internal employees as needed. Having a way to have all this information at our fingertips for internal stakeholders is key. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Gainsight Customer Success?

Gainsight has been the centralized place that my CS teams to operate from for years. It's how we drive consistent execution, report interactions, paint a complete picture of our customers (especially on the high touch side), and track the general health of the customer in as automated a fashion as possible. My team and I live out of it - and use it daily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gainsight Customer Success?

Gainsight can get really busy - with a lot of fields that aren't used. Integrations can be messy and challenging. Also, CSM's will often complain about the toil it creates in their day to day - though they typically understand that it's necessary. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gainsight Customer Success solving and how is that benefiting you?

Tracking and reporting on customer healthinteractions, and driving consistent execution through CTA's/Success Plans/actionable score card measures. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Gainsight product has changed our whole CSM team. We now have thoughtful process with visibility we never had. Our CSMs can be more organized and have more meaningful customer interactions. We have a great relationship with our Gainisght CSM and the support we have received has been tremendous. Really feels like our partner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a lot to onboard. I feel like we have been onboarding for years. We still arent using everything. But it takes time and effort to reinvent how we have done CS for years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Gainsight Customer Success?

I can get a lot of information about one customer on one page. And I can custimize that page however I would like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gainsight Customer Success?

Nothing comes to mind at the moment. I know the dislikes are important to hear to improve your product, but I really don't have anything at the moment. While I have a hard time giving someone a perfect 10, I feel like I should as I have no reason to give a 9. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gainsight Customer Success solving and how is that benefiting you?

There are so many aspects about each account that I need to understand to know if an account is healthy. It can surface this information so it is easily understandable, but it also creates health scores based on some of this data. These health scores or at risk CTAs help guide next steps.

What do you like best about Gainsight Customer Success?

Gainsight is my favorite tool I use as a CSM for managing customer relationships. I love the data-driven approach to maintaining customer health scores, the integration with Gong.AI that generates customer meeting notes, and the ease of use and integration with SFDC. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gainsight Customer Success?

It would be nice to have pre-populated templates based on the meeting type when logging activities on the C360 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gainsight Customer Success solving and how is that benefiting you?

Gainsight CS is the single source of truth for our organization. We use it to consolidate customer meeting notes, create success and risk plans, and share information out with the rest of our GTM org. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Gainsight Customer Success?

I absolutely love the ability to easily add notes to my meetings with the calendar widget, which syncs to my calendar and documents the meeting details and attendees. I also love that Gainsight integrates with our most strategic tools such as Slack, Salesforce, Domo, and Gong. This keeps our team and Sales aligned, our data aligned, and ability to easily access call recordings in the account timeline. Transitions between CSMs are so much easier too! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gainsight Customer Success?

Most of my feedback is internal on things I want adjusted, but the fact it is so customizable is great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gainsight Customer Success solving and how is that benefiting you?

CS naturally has turnover, and it really helps bring a new CSM onto an account quickly. This also helps me quickly get a gauge on the health of an account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Gainsight allows for our organization to automate customer success workflows to create internal and external efficiences, drive desired outcomes and track towards critial program KPIs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gainsight Customer Success?

It's hard to mention a downside, but for our specific use case we must leverage Gainsight/Salesforce integration in which the sync of data takes a day for most of our operations. Not a limitation on Gainsight, but our specific use case. I wish it was our source of truth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gainsight Customer Success solving and how is that benefiting you?

Gainsight helps us automated critical customer lifecycle events and allows us to standardize how CSMs engage with customer to align with brand messaging.
