Considered Both Products
ChurnZero
Chose ChurnZero
ChurnZero has better brand visibility and recognition among its competitors and that was one primary reason we selected ChurnZero. In addition, our leadership's affinity towards the platform (based on their past experiences) ensured we go with ChurnZero. While we were testing …
Chose ChurnZero
ChurnZero seemed a little more geared towards our customer base and goals. Their onboarding was thorough and included (Gainsight's was not). Cost/Budget also came into the picture as well!
Chose ChurnZero
ChurnZero was the perfect mix of tools and features at the right price. It has scaled as we've scaled and the new features they roll out are always industry firsts.
Chose ChurnZero
Gainsight is a great software, and a good alternative to ChurnZero. However for us, ChurnZero had made a number of key changes to their product suite that helped us decide for it over Gainsight. For instance the integrated AI text generator, the new round robin, enhanced note …
Chose ChurnZero
During our assessment it was obvious that Churnzero offered more features that aligned with our business goals.
Chose ChurnZero
We've used several products such as HubSpot, Asana, and Chameleon. ChurnZero gave us all of the features we were looking for including product usage, health scores, automations, journeys, in app walk-throughs and in app announcements. We were able to replace several platforms …
Chose ChurnZero
HubSport is quickly turning into a secondary platform for us. HubSpot functions much more as a task-oriented, call-as-much-as-possible, Sales system. Churn Zero far outpaces HS with its AI to summarize the account, and its ability to bring in outside data from Pendo, ZenDesk, …
Chose ChurnZero
We actually use both. We do not focus our usage of ChurnZero on the in-app functionality (that is something we do with Pendo) but we do find clearer usage data for a lot of elements with ChurnZero.
Chose ChurnZero
I prefer that ChurnZero has the health scores and is easier to use.
Chose ChurnZero
Strikedeck was way to difficult to use and required way to many steps to do one thing. ChurnZero is a game changer with that. When logging a activity, it is literally the same page for everything, no jumping back and forth or having to start a different tab.
Chose ChurnZero
Gainsight CS - you need a team to manage this tool; not intuitive to use, and you're not able to be as agile once configured

GUIDEcx - One of my favorites in the space, and so easy to set up, configure, customize, and scale. Able to connect onboarding milestones to SFDC cases, …
Chose ChurnZero
ChurnZero's segmenting and health score abilities were unmatched, as it allows for customization for almost every feature.
Chose ChurnZero
While Gainsight CS and PX are owned by the same parent company, they couldn't be more different on a fundamental level. PX is a nuts and bolts usage data platform which reports on many of the same datapoints as ChurnZero, but beyond that, PX has very little in terms of team …
Chose ChurnZero
We selected ChurnZero based on price and having the functionality we needed for right now. Gainsight had more features, but at a much higher cost and these features weren't necessarily items we needed to get ourselves up and running now.
Chose ChurnZero
I haven't used any other products like ChurnZero
WalkMe
Chose WalkMe
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 …
Chose WalkMe
It's all about analytics and WalkMe has everything you ever needed and more!
Chose WalkMe
My understanding is that WalkMe was selected based on its capability to support our requirements for our enterprise software. We wanted a product that allows us to provide help at the point of need, provide as little or as much help to guide the user to successfully use the …
Chose WalkMe
WalkMe was much better in terms of features, implementation, and analytics. It's a market leader in the Digital Adoption space so it made sense to begin our digital adoption journey with this tool. The sales team also spent a lot of time with us in understanding our …
Chose WalkMe
Pendo didn't have react native support at the time or it would have been the solution of choice. Much better tool.
Chose WalkMe
WalkMe is an outstanding platform and its technical support is so calm and professional. Always listen to the queries well and respond out with the alternative or solution to increase a good experience of the user. The best feature of WalkMe which I like the most is the …
Chose WalkMe
WalkMe is by far more customizable and fully features compared to its competitors. This does mean it takes longer to learn all the features, however, it also means you can customize the tours to a greater degree. Most of the competitor products are between a third to half the …
Chose WalkMe
I have realized WalkMe is a great product with a lot of features and so far is the best product adoption and user onboarding tool compared to its alternatives. WalkMe is specialized in the field of product tours and walkthroughs hence making it the pioneer in the user …
Chose WalkMe
Our organization reviewed several products before selecting WalkMe as the primary tutorial platform. We chose WalkMe because our primary business tutorial need is for Salesforce. WalkMe offers an incredibly easy-to-use and understandable walk-through and integrates incredibly …
Chose WalkMe
A predecessor had originally chosen WalkMe and I decided to continue using them out of convenience, but when things didn't get better, we looked around and found alternative tools to be better.
Chose WalkMe
Our company chose to transition to our own proprietary knowledgebase system.
Chose WalkMe

Ability to make it easy for the users to use our popular products by using product-specific launchers and smart tips.

We are watching the analytics for these and they seem to work!

Chose WalkMe
Our firm rated WalkMe as best in class compared to alternatives. In addition to functionality, WalkMe university and professional services set us up to own the product and continuously improve.
Chose WalkMe
The only other personalization/on-boarding tool we have tried is Evergage. We are actually running them at the same time, each has their own strengths and weaknesses. Evergage's ability to personalize the message and be more dynamic in their campaigns is far better than those …

Likelihood to Recommend
If you are a SaaS business with a high volume of customers, having ChurnZero is a must. If you have a subscription based business and a customer success or account management function in your company, I would highly recommend ChurnZero.

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.

Pros
  • Plays: Allows you to bulk send emails out to clients based on easy to make segments. Also, allows us to track success of a play. Previously, we had to work with our marketing team to send out any emails and it was an extremely bulky process that took far too long for the payout.
  • Segments: Better than any other CRM reporting functionality. Allows us to more accurately look at portions of our clients based on different factors that are extremely easy to use.
  • Health Scores: The customization allows us to really play around with different health scores as we figure out what good health across clients and services really look like.
  • Transparency: Allows me as a manager to see a much better comprehensive look at my team's performance.

  • 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
  • More clarity around our usage (event) data - it can be difficult to understand all the terminology ChurnZero uses
  • Add more functionality for use cases of Operations teams - currently focused mainly on CSM usage
  • Ability to set defaults when viewing dashboards and command center - currently all choices reset
Read full review
  • 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!

Our team is very happy with the product after evaluating multiple vendors, including Gainsight, Totango and Planhat. We like the additional functionality that CZ offers on its enterprise version. We were strongly considering other products if the price was right and functionality worked, but the change management would have been too heavy and taken too long. The ChurnZero team has been a good partner to rely on and allowed us to free up our time and resources to focus on more pressing matters

Usability
ChurnZero makes my work life a complete game changer. I say it all the time ChurnZero is a one stop shop for data! I don't fumble through numerous different programs, try to remember different passwords, I literally login to CZ and it is right there in front of me

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.

I recently had the opportunity to interact with ChurnZero's customer support team, and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed. Their responsiveness and willingness to solve problems are exemplary. From the moment I reached out, their team displayed a level of professionalism and dedication that truly stood out.

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

Online Training
The training and onboarding have been very helpful. Since I was not a part of the team when ChurnZero was implemented, it was important to get brought up to speed as quickly as possible and our CSM has been incredibly receptive in that regard.

I implemented CZ in 4 months. When I look back, this is not a long time where I needed to get to know CZ by myself (as I did not have knowledge of it at all..) study the Academy, playing around in the test environment and setting up in live environment.

We've used several products such as HubSpot, Asana, and Chameleon. ChurnZero gave us all of the features we were looking for including product usage, health scores, automations, journeys, in app walk-throughs and in app announcements. We were able to replace several platforms with ChurnZero and ended up with more functionality.

Return on Investment
  • Already allowing us to do some data-clean up and better identify struggling accounts
  • Gives us the tools to re-teach our team on being proactive, not reactive
  • We can more easily identify accounts that are positioned well for cross sell
  • Over time, we hope to see higher renewal retention
Read full review
  • 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.
