User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend
New agents are given Balto and are able to take calls successfully from day one. They take incoming calls and Balto listens to both sides of the conversation and when things are said it will prompt the agent to move forward in different ways. It also will prompt if agents are speaking too much or if the agent isn't listening and asking the same question it will prompt them.

It's well-suited for sales and customer service processes where the intent is both to sell the product and give customer or technical service post-sale. It is best to search for calls with different phrases. However, as far as I am concerned, it is less suitable for processes that are not defined. Like sales inbound, where we may not know the conversation direction.

Cons
  • If we jump over a bullet point it sometimes does not go back to an unlight question when we do.
  • If we get a transfer from a fellow agent it doesn't show the correct verbiage to use.
  • It takes a little too long to go from OB verbiage to IB verbiage.

  • When there is maintenance done in the backend our total numbers disappear so would be great to not impact production environment when doing improvements on the backend
  • I think Clari can train more the champions at customer to drive utilisation rates in your customers

Usability

Clari is very good when it comes to usability as I'm accessing it on daily basis as long as I'm on my Notebook, it helps a lot having visibility on my business status and progress on achievement. I can estimate my weekly, monthly, and yearly opportunities closure and revenue. I have some saved views which are so useful to get what I want to see.

Clari is very willing to jump in and build out use cases. They will work to do anything for you. That said, their follow up is not great. We have had to reach out for follow up several times on a project, which is still not complete. I wish they taught us how to complete what we want, rather than doing it in house for us

Gainsight was clunky. We had a dashboard for CS renewals but it was difficult to update. If you typed something and didn't save, and you started updating another opportunity's notes, your previous notes would not save. With Clari it auto saves
