Consensus improves the software buying process with interactive demos on demand. A digital product experience, it aims to delight buyers and deliver detailed intent data back to revenue teams, to shorten cycle times, increase close rates, and drive resource efficiency.
Brainshark is very user-friendly and it’s very easy to create learning content, even a beginner could walk through it fairly easily. They also have a great support team and help site that can pretty much answer any question with video tutorials.
I would greatly recommend Consensus to a colleague or organization that has a sales team and focuses a lot of time on hosting demos. This would bring a seamless experience to that team and open up the doors to utilize resources in areas that bring in more revenue. Thanks again
The ability to tailor demos and demoboards to show various functionality of the product.
We appreciate the features Consensus has to customize demos in various forms.
The customer service and post-sales trainings the Consensus team has held for our company have been extremely beneficial. I personally appreciated learning how demos are better received when they're not 'perfect'
It is not always the SME that wants to narrate so an easier way to invite guest narrators would make the creation process less painful.
More detailed description of report types. Depending on what output I am in search of, I find myself having select each option until I find what I need.
An option to insert a slide instead of just adding and having to move it up by repeatedly pressing the up arrow.
Our customers (internal employees) have expressed desired for online learning and we have received positive feedback on the Brainshark modules used in eLearning and communications. We are also increasing usage at the project level as the word spreads about the benefits of using Brainshark.
Consensus has been a valuable and vital sales tool at every stage of our sales cycle. In the very early stages of prospect education, you can send videos to get them familiar and up to speed with our product without a solution consultant's involvement. It is also a very powerful tool at the later stages of the sales cycle, with the ability to tailor demos and intro videos and record exec alignment itro videos, which we have had great success with
BrainShark is great for those with beginner and intermediate level software skills. It doesn't take a programming genius to get up and running with this application.
Firstly, the ability to sort, organize, and classify the demo libraries is a real advantage for managing read and write permissions for our users who are in different divisions across various countries. Then, the easy creation of demoboards is a plus, and it has become even better since we can now associate tours with them
I'm always able to access Brainshark, whether it is to upload, record, share, download, or view presentations. Whenever I do need to contact someone at Brainshark, there is always someone there. I have never had a problem accessing a presentation and any updates to presentations are viewable immediately.
We've found a few glitches and needed some branding updated. Each time we've called, they were super responsive and cared about my issue as much as I did! They've even helped me (and another vendor) figure out how to have this other outside software integrate with theirs to achieve an even greater presentation. I'm super impressed with their Customer Service people.
The training is easy to use. You can take as little or as much as you need. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. There is a variety of training you can take. There are mini lessons, courses, and webinars. The folks at Brainshark truly want to help you have the best presentation possible.
Most systems we looked at only housed training you already had or bought... or you could buy their training, but they did not offer a way to build your own training AND keep it updated and house it in a logical way. I what we use in Brainshark as two parts (and we don't use it all - such as the Coaching module) one for creation and second for delivery... and delivery offers two parts. One off's... links that we can add to newsletters, websites etc, and then their Rapid Learning Portal for more formalized learning. Brainshark gives me what I need to create AND deliver trainings, webinars and even holiday wishes. Plus they are big enough to offer service and tech help to the field... I don't have to do it all myself... as well as a Customer Success Manager for quarterly updates, help and training, monthly reporting on usage, training webinars and an whole knowledge base and author and administrator training online. If you only have a person or hand full of people creating your training... it is easy to use and get lots of content out to the world!
None. Consensus has been my first exposure to long-form demo/content delivered besides using zoom to record a demo and then sharing a link with my prospect. Consensus has changed the game in regards to how I engage with prospects from a product perspective
Since we implement how Brainshark is used we have found several areas where it has a significant impact...the first is the ability for any three step distributor to build a supplier / manufacturer content library that can be utilized by their B2B sales group
Brainshark's survey and question tools are an excellent way to solicit feedback from both internal and external audiences...
Brainshark is a cost effective way for retailers and wholesalers to manage store and field level operations...
