    Likelihood to Recommend
    Influitive
    We have seen success with information sharing. Giving customers another way to access our resources has been a huge help for them. While we see good engagement numbers there are still some limitations to getting our advocates to complete the 'harder' challenges, like a testimonial or reference

    If you want to capture your customer's voice with ease and have a path to break the reels down into actionable insights for prospects that attach to their biggest questions, fears, and doubts, then this is what you are looking for. This is for those prospects that will not be "bothered" with marketing fluff or marketing speak. These are the types of buyers who want to drill into the heart of what they are trying to solve as a business and see and hear from personas and businesses which look like them.

    Cons
    Influitive
    • The Admin view is not as intuitive as the user view and the functionality just isn't as great. I wish it had almost the same layout/interface as how the customer sees it so I didn't have to constantly enter Preview mode.
    • I wish there were more included integrations in the regular Influitive package.

    • Speed of the platform for users. This could be because we have a LOT of content, but it can at times be a pain point that we work to address together with the SlapFive team.
    • Ease of search function could get better. I have trouble doing searches and sometimes get time-out issues.
    • Having a "user portal" so we know when there might be bugs being worked on or a service issue that is being worked on without having to email someone each time. More for self-service and tracking.

    Likelihood to Renew
    Influitive
    Depending on the cost and new features to be added, our company might be motivated to renew the use of Influitive. However, a lot depends on the year to come and the enhancements that can better our experience and add more gamification to the platform. Adding elements that can woo our target audience.

    Usability
    Influitive
    Overall, Influitive is very easy to use for customers. There's a bit of a learning curve for new admins, but that's only because Influitive isn't always intuitive. The UI is confusing in certain places. I expect something to be in one place, and I find it somewhere else entirely. This is the only reason my usability rank isn't higher

    Reliability and Availability
    Influitive
    Yes, always available and extremely quick. The availability is 10 on 10 for sure. We also have situations where their team might not be working or on a holiday, but if we have an event, they are available and ensure smooth running. That is the beauty of having Influitive take care of you.

    Performance
    Influitive
    Influitive AdvocateHub interacts with Blackbaud Champions and is an on-time response system. What I mean by that is once data is entered in Influitive AdvocateHub, it is updated in real time and I can access a computer and the data is there immediately. Sometimes the rewards do not show up right away and I am under the assumption that the delay is caused by an influx of traffic.

    Support Rating
    Influitive
    If a problem can be easily addressed, Influitive Support is all over it! They're fast and always easy to work with. Some of the larger, or more unique problems, can get a little lost. I'd love to see a bit more follow-up on these more important issues, instead of me needing to reach out to find the status of a previously submitted issue. Overall, everyone at Influitive is kind and wants to help!

    I was taught and made to show all features that could help me learn more about the platform and this was great hands-on training for me. I picked up things faster than others and did have time to create challenges and make changes while someone was around to supervise and help.

    The training was extensive and gave me the knowledge/ skills that I needed in order to implement my advocacy program using Influitive's Advocate Hub. I also meet on a regular basis with my Customer Success Manager. My Success Manager helps give me ideas for my program and helps me ensure that it's successful. Influitive is really invested in my success. They act more like a partner than a vendor

    I think some of the key insights I can put forward are all aligned to simply being organized. Make sure you have a well thoughts out plan where you have taken all factors into account. Prioritize the list of deliverables, and make sure you have all the right people alighed to assist internally & externally. If you have a well organized plan you will be set up for success.

    Vanilla is great for forums, but they don't have the gamification/challenges piece that is so important toward building advocacy. I've found a similar circumstance with Salesforce communities--good if you're looking primarily for crowdsourced tech support and QA, but nothing "sticky" for really building a thriving community, or the advocacy piece

    I'd say it's a bit simpler than RO Innovation, but also much more affordable, especially considering their video capture capabilities which RO Innovation does not have.

    • We have raised our portfolio even higher where we dominate our market when it comes to having the best relationship with our customers across everything we do. Website, peer-to-peer review sites, customer stories, customer references, and MORE. I believe it's because we BELIEVE in the same ETHOS as SlapFive, and we LIVE to make HEROS every day of our customers and infuse the sound of our customer's voices in everything we do.
    • Product Marketing DEPTH of customer's voice is beyond what anyone else in software technology businesses has done. It's typical that product goes and "does product" all day long, and customer marketing does its own separate work, and never the tween shall meet. Not so at Acumatica. Nothing leaves our Product Marketing teams desk without customer voice connected now. The ease of SlapFive Customer Marketing Software's platform and our broad adoption make this possible.
