Consensus Reviews & Product Details

I like how easy it is to create and edit things in Consensus and how you can share them out while tracking all the stats. I enjoy the live links feature because it makes it really easy to put the URL anywhere and it embeds well into other websites. You can just pop in the Consensus URL for an iframe, and it works pretty well. When you send it to someone, they just click the link, and it opens without needing to sign in, verify, or deal with popups, which is nice. The initial setup was also easy, and our CSM was very helpful with the learning curve, so I felt supported in learning how to use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the naming conventions and how the folders are created is a little confusing. Sometimes things exist in multiple places, or it's a little difficult to find things that have been created, especially if you use the Chrome extension tools. I think if there was just a pop up or a prompt for every time you create something, it asks you to name it yourself. Like, it doesn't auto name it for you. As well as move it to the desired folder you want it in. Would be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Consensus makes it really easy to share relevant demos with my customers or prospects at the right time. It also helps me educate customers and get them excited about what’s coming up before our call, so our conversations are more productive and fruitful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes it’s frustrating to attach demo videos to an account. It’s also difficult to send general demo videos, as opposed to using Loom. On top of that, the UI was updated with no communication to users, which was very frustrating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It gives you the option to give some demo material to people who aren't so serious in their buyer journey, just to keep them nurtured. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not particularly a dislike about consensus itself but I just always find that sending people video content can be low impact because it's often unlikely that people watch videos on their own time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that it’s a great way for me to showcase my product and get really useful insights that, in turn, help me tailor my live demo. The statistics are the best part. they help customers see what’s most important and what’s least important. I also just learned about the Outlook plugin, and I’m excited to try it. The user interface is really friendly and i would say that the platform is as fast as I want it to be Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’m not sure I’ve noticed any huge downsides yet. One complaint I did have was that when I used the platform directly without the Outlook plugin, I had to add the email address and manually adjust a few things. With Outlook and Consensus, though, it works perfectly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really appreciate the ease of use with Consensus. I love being able to make a couple of clicks and quickly send something to a customer in minutes or even while I'm talking to them. It's so simple to load up and send content right after a call. Even if someone isn't that tech-savvy, especially clients receiving the videos, they are able to watch and navigate them with ease. The reports I get when clients have watched the videos, or more importantly, when they haven't, are incredibly helpful because it lets me follow up to keep the sales process moving. The time-saving aspect is huge for me, as it used to take forever to find and send videos from different folders or websites. With Consensus, I can easily find what I need, save time, and even create personalized live videos for clients, which makes my communication more engaging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One issue I have with Consensus is that it doesn't stay connected to our CRM. It would be a lot easier if I could easily populate the person into Consensus. Even though it takes just two seconds to put the information in, it would be a lot nicer to have this feature working seamlessly. This might be an internal problem, though.

Consensus has been most helpful for educating my customers without requiring much lift from my technical team. It has helped shift discovery into the demonstration phase. Customers can learn more on their own time by viewing Consensus, and it allows them to come to the table with specific questions and a general awareness of the solutions I can provide in the later stages of the sales process.

One downside of Consensus is that customers have to commit to clicking in and viewing the material, or to scheduling an overview with their rep. Sometimes it’s simply easier to grab their attention in person. I balance both approaches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use, intuitive UI, and easy to tailor for each customer. I can quickly create demo boards, attach relevant demos, and record a short intro video for the customer. It’s saved me a lot of time by helping customers self-educate during early evaluations, so I can avoid unnecessary demos and focus my time on better-fit opportunities.

Content organization could be better though I do like how there are tags available to search Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Consensus to record once and share many videos to potential or existing customers at my company Cyncly. I love how it saves time and effort, allowing me to organize and share content easily, both internally and externally. The ability to create a library of content that can be reused makes my sales time more effective. Consensus is designed to work seamlessly, providing great screen capture capabilities, and allowing me to add keywords to make searches easy. I appreciate the clean interface and how it offers flexibility in sharing contents on the cloud or locally. The perpetual library is one of the best features, as it can be modified as products evolve. It's efficient to use demo boards, which allows me to take snippets and rearrange them without redoing whole blocks of information. Tracking views and shares is another great feature.

Some of the steps are confusing. Understanding the differences between demo boards and regular files for sharing has taken me a long time, and I'm still learning about those. I think clearer instructions about how to assemble things or understanding what certain aspects of the platform are would be helpful. The setup was easy, but I had difficulty with the flow of creating and sharing things properly. I had to learn it myself, as I didn't have anyone explain it to me, so maybe more instructional videos about the process would be beneficial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

None come to mind! Keep up the great work! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Makes it easy to get the right demo clips in-front of prospects without needing to do a live call everytime - especially useful for prospects who are at the beginning of their buying journey and just testing the market Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Content library can get messy, and creating a demoboard for each prospect can take time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
