"Richard Kingston is a god send!"

4/5

What do you dislike about Qstream?

I think there should be more question types. I feel this is currently limited. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hey there, we think so too! And even better that you are seeing improvements in sales capabilities. Thanks for the suggestion on question types which the product team will be happy to get input on. If you have specific question types in mind let Richard know so we can capture your needs in detail.

"Optimizing Learning"

3/5

What do you like best about Qstream?

How information is spaced out in the just the right intervals for optimizing learning gains. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Qstream?

Information can't be uploaded into the system. All questions still take manual input. Others have automated this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Qstream:

Be clear of what you want to use it for. All the analytics are not always necessary and depend on what an employer's needs are. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Mitigating the forgetting curve. Increased test scores, retention and reinforcement of learning concepts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Increase Engagement"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Qstream?

The increased engagement and ability to provide coaching remotely has helped to reinforce messaging and provides managers a platform to coach their teams remotely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Qstream?

It is difficult to hold managers accountable to coaching their teams, and there have been a number of technical issues with using the iPhone app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Meredith Odgers of Qstream

Thanks for taking the time to give your feedback. Enabling managers with insights on knowledge gaps and surfacing coaching recommendations can really accelerate employee performance. You can see coaching recommendations clicked/actioned to get an indication of which managers are acting on this intel - I suggest to contact your client services manager to show you this data and also to see if they can help you with the mobile app.

"Features and benefits"

2.5/5

What do you like best about Qstream?

The dashboard which able to capture the progress of the team performance and the coaching tool that can directly link to the specific individual . This help the manager to coach the individual in specific area to improve on. The Dashboard is good to measure and identify the individual that has weakness in which area. This also enable us to distinguish whether this is a general issue across the team or a rare case specific to that individual. This can tell us if the content or training method need to be improved in order to improve the learning and knowledge of the sales team.

The user tagging is very good to have a deep dive analysis to understand more on the user behaviour and team performance so that we can identify the top performer vs those that have gap that required more support to help them to improve further. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Qstream?

I still not sure on how the campaign being set up and it is a little confusing when I tried to get a deep dive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Qstream:

To map out your requirement in order to have this truly help to achieve the goal.

Incorporate gamification and internal challenge for prizes in order to increase the engagement from users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We are trying to focus in the following:

1. Retain the knowledge after the training

2. To capture what's working and what's not working so that we can improve the training content, material, technique and method in the future Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A great tool for learning"

4/5

What do you like best about Qstream?

I like the delivery schedule settings and reporting the best. I like how an admin can adjust the frequency and the rules for repetition. The reporting is very useful. It helps provide a glance at engagement and progress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Qstream?

I wish there was a way to change the delivery schedule settings after a Qstream launches. Once you launch a Qstream, your participants are stuck with the settings you've set. It would be nice to be able to increase the number of questions being delivered after a certain time period to allow slackers to catch up and finish with the cohort.

"Directed Learning that is FUN and ENGAGING!"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Qstream?

Easy to use, quick and a fun element. Also, ability to change the themes of Qstreams periodically. We launch next week, but like that it will be an additional training element to reinforce key items. We will also make it competitive which the groups will respond favorably to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Qstream?

Not all the way sure yet, maybe ability to do video answers back? We launch for the first time next week. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We are merging two business units together, so we are building 1 group. We want the groups to learn about one another. We will also use Qstream to reinforce training from Global Commercial (Sales) Meeting as well as other learning initiatives. It gives another platform for adult learning, "microburst" training.

We launch Qstream next week as the first week. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great tool to ensure reps know what they should know"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Qstream?

Easy for users to adopt. The teams really like it, especially the competitive aspect of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Qstream?

Video coaching is still immature. You can't have multiple reviewers, you can't customize the areas for feedback and you can't make a user redo it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
