The relationship building with the entire team at LMI from Sales, to the Account Manager to our Customer Relationship manager and their product Bold360 was excellent. They were always willing to listen to different ideas and try to make them work for us

If you need a content management system that allows you to add a wide variety of label categorization and have multiple users logged in at the same time, Khoros Care is suitable. However, I cannot say that it's the best system to use. There are other systems that have the same or similar features without as many issues.

Pros
  • We’ve built our environment to scale globally and currently leveraging the platform in U.S., LATAM, BRAZIL, APAC, and EMEA.
  • Email integration with Outlook has helped channel emails to agents by skill set.
  • The knowledgebase has shared global articles, which are auto-translated to our fans who engage our brands based on their questions.
  • I want to add kudos to the support received from our Customer Success Manager and Technical Account Manager.

  • Manages and pulls in posts from communities, Facebook, and Twitter so we can address them in one place as opposed to logging into each site natively.
  • Khoros Care has great analytics. I like the customizable dashboards; we use them for weekly reports to upper management.
  • Khoros Care helps our social media manager manage and monitor our teams.

Cons
  • Reporting capabilities. I think the dashboard and reporting tool could contain more details in terms of what data is visible and available to the user/administrator.
  • Native mobile applications to provide added support.
  • Improving the beta testing program to use new features before understanding whether the update can be pushed out without causing issues with the end-user.

  • I would like to be able to see deleted comments/tweets so we can look into the issues.
  • I would like to be able to better customize dashboards for our exact metrics. Some things previously available in Spredfast are no longer available in Care.

Simply, there isn't anything on the market that is quite as personable as Khoros Care. After using a few different client messaging systems, this program gave the closest feel to in-person interaction that we could get during the COVID-19 epidemic and is an important part of our agency still to this day in 2023.

Usability
Day-to-day use of Bold360 AI (chatbot) use (reviewing new questions, adding new responses, tagging, etc.) is fairly simple, but utilizing more advanced features and custom channeling, etc. typically require escalation to developers and may require additional costs if you want help to implement

The ability to auto tag, manually tag, make notes, and "snooze" posts is extremely helpful. The efficiency of the work flow for agents is also a huge plus. It keeps agents moving quickly and prioritizing responses for the cases that need it most.

Support Rating
The Bold360 team has been supportive throughout the process. My reason for providing the 8 rating is due to the training curriculum. I believe Bold should work closely with the client to determine what training would best support the customer's needs.

Khoros Support has always very responsive and helpful when it comes to getting my issue/inquiry addressed. Their ticket portal is great for tracking any open tickets and they can be updated via the portal or by responding to the email thread. Support reps are always extremely knowledgeable and care about getting you taken care of

Implementing the platform was not a big hassle for our client, it was seamless and easy we just had to follow a few steps and it was done. Just scaling was a bit of an issue but it got resolved with time and a bit of effort at both ends

Alternatives Considered
Each is unique in [its] own way but we wanted something powerful and easy for the people performing day-to-day tasks within it. We didn't want to always have to rely on IT to not only develop but also maintain the solution and therefore adding an unnecessary dependency on the opportunity the platform can provide to its users. We also wanted a native live chat platform within it, rather [than] further customization to integrate with another solution provider.

Retention is very much needed in competitive environment like today and hence it becomes imperative for companies to find different ways to reach their client basis and fix their issues
