I would recommend this to teams who have multiple people who can work together in getting the necessary source codes input, the guides built, and the parameters identified. I would also recommend this product to anyone who is primarily concerned about price. Compared to competitors, the price vs the feature set was by far the best out of the 6 companies I demoed with. If one person is trying to get this set up and it isn't part of their full-time job, it will take a while because there is a pretty big learning curve as to what order to do things. Further, once the basics are set up, it does take a fair amount of time and testing to build the walk-throughs, especially if you want to use advanced logic

WalkMe is a great tool to support digital transformation efforts at an organization--it can reduce the training/learning time for both the users and the creators. It can also support onboarding, change management, data integrity, and creating a seamless connection between platforms and many others. It's not a tool for simple, intuitive platforms that do not change frequently.

Read full review
  • No more communicating via email - conditional shoutouts to relay a message
  • Automating processes to increase productivity and reduce frustration
  • Fabulous analytics
  • Training at the point of need - no more searching for the relevant training elsewhere
  • Adding a link to automatically start any WalkMe solution from anywhere using 'Permalinks' is great!

Cons
  • The initial setup process isn't as transparently intuitive as it was sold
  • It's a fairly large barrier to entry for one person to get the guides set up
  • We weren't instructed how to 'turn off' the URL hits until we had our parameters segmented so the first two months we hit our limits before anything was even launched on our end. That made testing hard.

  • I would like to see some way to manage versions of the help from release to release, as currently the only way to see/roll a help item back to a time in the past is to revert to that time.
  • We had run into some issues with duplicating images in the Assets Library, but that has just been fixed!

Usability

WalkMe has done a great job of making their tool easy to use. However because it is a Firefox plugin it causes me to need another browser and sacrifice the left 2 - 3 inches of my display, when working on a laptop this makes it a bit painful. Also when publishing you can organize your list of walk-thrus, the window size is small and limited to the constraints of the WalkMe tool.

The WalkMe Support Team was phenomenal. My support rep made a genuine effort to ensure my success with using the WalkMe Software. She was kind, patient, and very knowledgeable on the software. If there was a question she did not know the answer too, she would find the answer and get back to me as soon as possible

Alternatives Considered
By far the best price for the available features. They had a really easy demo scheduling process (and had availability to demo within a day or two where some of the other products were a week+ to schedule). You can build unlimited guides and if you don't hit your user limit because you failed to identify target parameters at the start, that is a huge selling point ;)

I couldn't successfully implement this product for trial and found support help was delayed. In comparison, despite also being based in another country, WalkMe's support was quick to help with queries and always eager to address the issue and go above and beyond to make sure I had the information I needed.

Return on Investment
  • We lost two months due to running out of 'hits' before we were able to target the right fields. This was partly our fault for not having enough time to dedicate to it, but it would have been helpful to have a 'pause' button or be told to look out for this scenario.
  • We canceled our account after 4 or 5 months because I, as the sole user on our team, didn't have nearly enough time to build out the guides the way we had envisioned. It wasn't quite as easy to understand as I'd hoped. It was doable, but a slow process and I got too busy with other pressing issues with my company.
  • It would have been a good ROI for the available features and price if I'd had a solid amount of time to really build it out and understand it better. The training options could have been a lot more user-friendly to help bridge that knowledge gap.

  • 79% of our customers using a walk-thru agree that it has made it easy to handle their issue.
  • WalkMe has helped us lower costs associated with phone and ticket based support. Using WalkMe to promote self help over ticket creation has reduced our ticket contacts by 50%.
  • Many on our development team are leery of WalkMe. It is allowing someone outside of their department access to modify the user experience. However our leadership teams have been onboard with it.
