    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.

    Spiky sales coaching powered by AI. The difference between sales coaching and sales training is that coaching is all about improving what is already going on in your sales operations, so the results come faster for two reasons: a) Personalized recommendations to each member of the team based on analysis of their current sales meetings and performance. b) The recommendations and suggestions can be prioritized for implementation based on results. Sales training is about general best practices and skills that need to be acquired and practiced by your team for a certain time before you can see the results. It's more general, less effective, and less immediate. Spiky is sales coaching on steroids.

    Pros
    Bigtincan
    • I love how easy creating a Brainshark and their formal learning is to use. Upload an animated Power Point, record audio, add music, or use videos etc.
    • Their formal learning also keeps track of people in classes, allows us to invite people to a curricula, send notifications when classes are added, and update on the fly without having to resubmit all new classes.
    • I also love that people in classes can run their own transcript and see where they are in a program, and if graded how they scored.

    Cons
    Bigtincan
    • Brainshark has addressed a number of feature enhancements over the past two years...it really performs at a high level on a consistent basis...
    • Ocassionally we run into a large video file >500mb that we have to address directly with support but it does not happen very often...

    • I don't particularly appreciate that it's only available in English.
    • We do also operate with customers in South America, where all conversations are carried in Spanish, so presently, we can only enjoy the competitive advantages in half of our sales operations.
    • This kind of breakthrough technology should be available globally.

    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.

    There are a lot of sites that allow you to host/share content in the loud. What won for me was their tracking, analytics, and reporting. At the time there was nobody even close to Brainshark and I have not seen anything since that would make me want to switch. I look forward to many years working with them.

    Spiky.ai has a unique approach for layering in sentiment/emotional analysis, which makes it much easier to review calls with the context. For example, sales reps and managers can capture how customers react to demos, new product features, different talk tracks, answers to questions or objections etc. This would be super hard to analyze (and very subjective) and do without Spiky's assistance on calls. There is so much data from video calls that are not captured by traditional tools like Gong and Spiky is adding super powers that help everyone better understand what is working or isn't working.

    Return on Investment
    Bigtincan
    • Client satisfaction - we send out summaries of our big webcasts/conference calls via Brainshark. We've received lots of replies stating they love the format because they can consume the information on their own time.
    • Time to market - before Brainshark, it took several days, if not weeks to work with a design team to get professional-looking summaries available. Now, we have the process down to a day or two.
