"IC accountability and ease of use"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Catalyst?

as a rep it was easy to be able to get a quick snapshot of the tasks i had to complete that day, and you actually felt accomplished seeing that number drop to zero.

As a manager I can now see who on my team needs reminders or not getting tasks done on a daily basis. making accountability + follow up easier to look into Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Catalyst?

we have a large team, and the dashboard does not show me everyone all at once without their names bleeding together - would love if i didn't have to scroll thru or edit my page magnification in order to see my entire team Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great platform to operationalize customer success without intensive effort"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Catalyst?

As a small team, we were looking for a customer success platform that could help us stay organized without a lengthy or complicated setup process. Catalyst delivered exactly what we needed. The onboarding was quick and painless; we were able to get everything up and running in a very short timeframe.

The interface is intuitive and user-friendly, so our team felt comfortable using it right away—no steep learning curve. Catalyst’s features have helped us centralize customer data, streamline our workflows, and proactively manage customer health.

Their playbooks and workflows are good features to have as well - we have been able to automate a lot of signals out of the platform using that functionality.

Overall, I would highly recommend Catalyst to other small teams looking to level up their customer success function quickly and with minimal hassle. It’s made a noticeable difference in how we manage customer health and grow our customer relationships. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Catalyst?

While setup is quick, some advanced features may require extra time and technical know-how to fully configure. Not a lot of feedback from the platform on when the data sources break or why - need to contact their support for it.

Limited customization in certain dashboards or reports can be frustrating if you want deeper insights tailored exactly to your team’s workflow. Especially if you are used to SFDC reports.

Some of the fields once you set those up can't be edited (especially calculated fields) and you basically have to start from scratch if you need to do any major edits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Catalyst: Helpful for Prioritization, but Lacks Workflow Integration"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Catalyst?

Catalyst has been a useful tool for surfacing key accounts that need attention, especially when it comes to users on our free platform. It gives a clear view into which customers are at risk or require follow-up, which helps me prioritize my outreach and tailor my engagement more effectively. The interface is intuitive, and it’s great for surfacing high-level insights that guide my day-to-day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Catalyst?

One major limitation is that Catalyst doesn’t integrate with Outreach. Without that integration, I can’t sequence contacts directly from the platform, which adds an extra step to my workflow and slows me down. Another challenge is that it doesn’t effectively organize accounts with multiple tasks—it can be hard to track and manage follow-ups when several action items are associated with the same account.

"Catalyst - Fantastic Customer Success Tool"
4/5
What do you like best about Catalyst?

The configurable dashboards that allow me to create the snapshot view of all the relevant pieces of information that I need ahead of meetings, specific being able to drill down on any data point which allows me to quickly to create a comparison of clients.

This way i get to use the solution nearly every day, to pull either information on a specific client or pull insights for the team Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Catalyst?

It takes a little bit of time to get the dashboard fully tweaked to your liking, but this is more a user input issue on my behalf rather than a fault of catalyst Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good experience for an account overview but not good for having no way to for storing documentations"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Catalyst?

It is so user-friendly and doesn't need any training to start working on it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Catalyst?

No attachment functionality is there and this is crucial and ruins the entire experience as you will need to work on it for some stuff and on other systems just to find the docs. I stopped using Catalyst in first week except for Pulse updates. It doesn't make any sense for me to waste my time between Salesforce and Catalyst when I can do everything on Salesforce including attachments which I need on daily basis.

"Set up Salesforce/Catalyst Integration"
3/5
What do you like best about Catalyst?

Catalyst looks like it will be a useful tool to measure and analyze our client health. Overall implementation was pretty easy, but had some issues with record syncing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Catalyst?

When setting up the integration between Salesforce and Catalyst, I was very disappointed with the filtering (only AND, no OR) that is allowed for pulling in/syncing records from Salesforce into Catalyst. There is no ability for custom filter logic, like combining AND and OR logic. This was a very limited feature that forced us to have to make custom fields in order to accommodate a tool that decision makers were told, was a functionality when syncing Salesforce with Catalyst.
