"After discussing with Gainsight, their initial renewal quote had already honored our previous pricing, removed the uplift, and were offering economies of scale on the additional licenses."
Company with 201-1000 employeesA while ago
"We needed to keep our spend with Gainsight flat, however, we also needed to add more users and records on top of this. Gainsight imposes a uplift upon renewals. We were able to get this waived, on top of getting 1 user and 500 records added at no cost by referencing ChurnZero, and that they have been reaching out to us for quite some time, and that we would have to consider them if the flat renewal with additional SKUs couldn't be met. Gainsight agreed to this in exchange for early signature by end of month (renewal wasn't due until 2 months after that) to avoid any competitive evaluation."
Company with 201-1000 employeesA while ago
"We use the tool for employee learning use case, and this year we felt development was lacking for us and used this to push back on the imposed renewal uplift. The biggest miss is that we are unable to set deadlines / due dates for courses and that there is no built-in gamification. Additionally, we are only able to sync a single portal to SFDC for reporting purposes and find the native reporting interface to be clunky as far as the UX goes. Outside of this, the overall experience working in the tool prioritizes an external facing with an employee-focused onboarding/training platform being secondary."
