What do you dislike about Gainsight Customer Communities?

"Good tool, not great"
2.5/5
What do you like best about Gainsight Customer Communities?

The platform is easy to configure and simple to use - Our customers can easily interact with one another and they enjoy the UX. It's very easy for us to gather product feedback and triage ideas with the product team through the ProductBoard integration. I appreciated the detailed onboarding checklist through Asana, that made our implementation process very simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gainsight Customer Communities?

We've had a very disappointing experience with the Digital Hub support team on numerous occasions. Lack of consistent communication, extreme delays in requestsed changes, and no solid resources to help with community activation. Not to mention much of their help center documentation is out of date and not helpful at all. I've found that many of the analytics dashboards are frequently buggy and don't show consistent data.

"Gets the job done"
3/5
What do you like best about Gainsight Customer Communities?

It's great for the community builder that is looking to mimic other popular communities i.e. Zapier, Insided, Gong, Monday.com, etc. This is designed to be a user community first and foremost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gainsight Customer Communities?

I didn't learn that this was a user community first and I'm trying to build a community of practice and for that it's really hard to use - it's not matching my use case too well, but we're locked in so we're making the most of it.

Creating events for your community is cumbersome and really only works if you don't plan on hosting a lot of events. You can't do recurring events or duplicate them which is a huge pain point for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Melanie G of Gainsight Customer Communities

Hey Elan - we really appreciate this feedback! While we agree that our product is definitely geared towards the use case of user communities, we do have customers using it for thought leadership. Our experts would be happy to help you brainstorm ways to more effectively use our solution.

You'll be happy to know that our Events module is the next big area we're looking to enhance - things like scheduling, drafting, duplicating, and filtering (on the viewer side) will all be touched on + a lot more in the coming weeks.

Please check your inbox for a message from your CSM - if there are other suggestions or points of feedback you'd be able to give us, we're all ears! Happy to give you more info about upcoming features releasing this quarter.

"A tailored, easy-to-use community platform for B2B businesses"
4/5
What do you like best about Gainsight Customer Communities?

The platform is easy to use and the feature set is tailored to B2B businesses. inSided provides their own community as well, so it's easy to suggest new features or get help through their forums. The Support and Product teams are also amazing to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gainsight Customer Communities?

Some of the features are not fully fleshed out like you would expect. I think this is a result of inSided being a younger company and having to prioritize a lot of work as it grows. For example, some community modules have robust subscription and notification features, or features to filter or customize the page, while other community modules lack these same notification and filtering options. However, inSided does respond to idea submissions, and they are making steady improvements across the board with each passing quarter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Customizable, Easy to learn, Customer Centric"
5/5
What do you like best about Gainsight Customer Communities?

The platform is very user friendly; using the control backend to post/manage content and set up the user flow is easy. The support from the InSided team is also excellent. Support works fast to fix any problems you have, and their onboarding sessions ensure you are equipped to launch successfully.

I really enjoy the different features of the platform and they speak to everything our customers are most interested in; exploring discussion boards to find meaningful conversations, connecting with our own experts, or staying up to date on new products we release. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gainsight Customer Communities?

In regards to the tool itself, there's not anything that I feel is missing.

One small thing more on the control backend is that once a post is live you are unable to change the post date. So while you are building out your community (and before inviting any users) it may be smart to wait until the very last week to make your post uploads. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Katherine Schulte of Gainsight Customer Communities

Thanks for your review, Nina! We're really happy to hear you find inSided so user friendly.
