What do you like best about Thena?

Thena helped to streamline and document our customer support over slack, which has helped us in several ways:

- Thena can provide exact reporting on how much value-add we provide to our customers;

- With Thena we can track long-running tickets by grouping requests together;

- Thena has 'kanban-ified' our support, which has brought a sense of agile into our team cadence.

The team releases new features fast to boot! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thena?

The integrations are understandably involved. For email integration, we needed to get our Cyber guy to open up some domain settings. But this is simply the cost of doing business with any email-related work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Thena solving and how is that benefiting you?

The issue of long-running tickets is the most immediate need that Thena has solved. By imposing the Open/Waiting on Customer/Waiting on Us/Completed (or some configurable permutation) onto our support, we have easy visibility into what fire needs to be put out first.

We are hoping to use Thena's new notification feature to help our team members support our customers in a timely manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Thena?

Thena has always been useful for making it possible to juggle customer requests, and their snappy new web interface is transforming how our support team works. In one view, we can see and respond to both the customer conversation and internal slack threads seamlessly, automatically organize requests by important customer details synced from other systems like Salesforce, and get automatic updates when feature requests or bug fixes are shipped to production. Two quotes I'd like to share to sum up our experience:

- From our support team: "New Thena web interface is _smooth_"

- From our customers: "...really love your system of following up with all requests" Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thena?

It's difficult to pick any substantial dislikes since the Thena team really listens to our feedback and ships improvements almost as fast as we can share it =)

One area I'm excited for Thena to solve next is some automated system for internal reminders/deadlines to make longstanding followups with customers a breeze. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Conversational Support

As an early stage startup, we love the chance to gather key insights from our customers, and Thena allows us to spend more time engaging and listening to customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Thena?

What I appreciate most about Thena is its ability to integrate Slack support into our existing ticketing system without disrupting our established technical support workflows. This integration has allowed us to unlock an additional support channel we could offer to our customers and provide an enhanced customer support experience. The bi-directional integration between Slack and our ticketing system enables our customers to receive timely assistance without leaving Slack, while our technical support team can provide this support while working within existing processes.

Additionally, working with the Thena team has been great and I have really enjoyed partnering with them. They are not only responsive and helpful but also committed to understanding our needs and how they can continue to build a better product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thena?

I do not dislike anything in particular. However this space is quite new so there is a lot of opportunity to build out additional features and robustness to Thena that would make it even more useful for us. The Thena team has been very receptive to feedback and always keeps me updated on progress, which I appreciate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Thena solving and how is that benefiting you?

Thena addresses the challenge of managing Slack customer support at scale, especially as our customer base grows. While customers prefer Slack for its convenience and familiarity, it is not scalable for our technical support team to join every single shared customer Slack channel and to manage requests across all these channels. Thena bridges this gap by allowing us to meet customers where they are while ensuring our technical support team is able to still work efficiently within existing support workflows. This therefore benefits us because Thena allows us to offer an additional support channel without compromising productivity, ultimately enhancing customer satisfaction and upleveling how we provide customer support at scale.

What do you like best about Thena?

Using Thena allows me and my team to talk to our customers from one place, no matter how the customer is contacting us. That means we can answer emails in slack, respond to inquiries from our web portal in Slack, and of course, address issues sent via Slack, in Slack. Thena's triage system means we never miss a notification, and can keep track of who is answering what and when. And beyond the daily use, we can now go back to the Thena analytics, and combine that data with other customer communications, to truly understand the health of all accounts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thena?

The CRM integration tools could be a little easier to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Thena solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a new post-sales leader at UpdateAI, I'm responsible for the entire customer experience. And while my title is Head of Customer Success, at our stage, Customer Success means success + experience + support + user research. I became THE person who talks to customers, and I wanted to do that through Slack as much as possible. I'm a big believer in Slack as the 'single pane of glass' and I wanted to make use of that. I evaluated other Slack-forward tools, and Thena was by far, the best of the bunch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Thena?

Thena makes it easy for us to manage customer support across hundreds of shared Slack Connect channels. Thena keeps track of customer support requests over Slack and allows utilize Slack like a helpdesk with intuitive tools for triaging, assigning, and collaborating on customer support requests. It even helps us flag requests that are higher priority, making it easier for our team to respond to the most urgent customer requests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thena?

Nothing, Thena solve the exact problem we need, is easy to setup and use, and at a good price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Thena solving and how is that benefiting you?

For years, we've used Slack Connect for nearly all of our customer support. Managing hundreds of shared Slack channels quickly became a nightmare, and without a reliable solution we almost completely abandoned Slack as a support channel.

Then we started using Thena. Thena quickly turned the chaos of Slack support into a highly organized system that we can track customer support requests and deliver lightning fast responses. We've since been able to scale Slack support to dozens more customers with the confidence that nothing will fall through the cracks, making our customers happier and life easier and less stressful for our support team.

What do you like best about Thena?

We use Thena to organize all of our customer interactions and mass communications in Slack.

Managing customers in Slack would be impossible without a tool like Thena. It allows us to keep our customer interactions conversational while driving ticket resolution on a customer issue or question in an efficient way behind the scenes.

Using Thena's marketing automation, we are able to communicate via slack with all or a portion of our customer base. This has allowed us to segment and target customers for new features and add-ons.

Thena's Kanban and ticket management tools are easy to understand, configure, and customize. It fits our process perfectly.

Customer Service at Thena is impeccable. They are responsive and thorough, going the extra mile to talk through a resolution.

Because of our great experience thus far, we have expanded our use of Thena to pre-sales prospects and internal help desk use too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thena?

What do you like best about Thena?

We have a lot of shared Slack channels with our customers, and Thena allows us to actually stay on top of all the messages, ensuring that we don't forget to reply to anything, and we're always replying in a timely manner. I love the reminders they automaticallly send if I haven't responded or closed a message within a certain amount of time. It also makes it incredibly easy to create support tickets from Slack - it's one of my favorite features - it saves a ton of time and provides customers with am amazing experience. We love Thena! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thena?

Honestly not much, it's still a new product so there are feature requests here and there, but the entire Thena team is super open to feedback and we feel like we have a great partnership with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Thena solving and how is that benefiting you?

We lose conversations with customers in Slack, which negatively impacts our relationships with customers - Thena helps us manage those, which ultimately leads to a better customer experience, better retention, faster support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Thena?

Thena immediately turned Slack for us from a liability into an asset. Before Thena, we were struggling in managing our customers in Slack, and we were actually going to move away from it entirely. It just did not scale as we grew. Thena makes it easy to support customers in Slack without the headache. We are BIG fans.

Onboarding was super easy, as was implementation. Their customer support / success team is great. We use their product hundreds of times a day, and it never fails us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thena?

Honestly not much. We submit feature requests here and there - and their team is always on top of it. We love Thena. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Thena solving and how is that benefiting you?

Scaling Slack channels to customers was functionally impossible before Thena. We couldn't manage or keep up with threads. "Saved" only gets you so far - and we were missing customer requests and threads. It got so tough that we were going to ditch Slack customer / connect channel entirely. Then we learned about Thena and quickly realized that their product could help us scale Slack for our customers. We believe Slack provides the best customer experience in terms of meeting our customers where they work - Thena makes it possible.

Thena is great at identifying when requests come in, summarizing them, grouping them, and then integrating with other tools like Zendesk or Jira to ensure we have a single location to manage requests. The reporting / analytics is top-notch; it is out-of-the-box useful and powerful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Thena?

When dealing with Slack external channels alongside your internal channels, it is really easy to have conversations and follow-ups fall through the cracks. I have been able to feel more assured that I can attend to conversations when the ball is in my court by using Thena. It's been enjoyable to augment my daily triage process with this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thena?

It took a little bit of a mental-shift for switching my flow onto Thena, but this is unlike to the onboarding experience of any other productivity tool. The value I've gotten has defintely outweighed the small learning curve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Thena solving and how is that benefiting you?

I can feel confident that I'm quickly triaging issues and reassuing customers via our slack channels. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
