Gainsight CS is always my first pick for a CSM tool - it's user friendly and intuitive; plus the tools like Success Plans and Health Score config really set it apart

Gainsight CS is beautiful and much more user friendly HOWEVER it does take more time to set up to have the desired impact than a software like ChurnZero.

More customization with Gainsight CS, but Churn zero did have a great UI and easier to use. Would recommend CZ if you're a smaller company with no technical admin.

It is the most flexible CS platform in terms of how to manipulate and use your data.

Gainsight CS is a little more polished and has a wider range of capabilities. However, Planhat did appear to be very easy to use. The biggest difference was PlanHats admin capabilities and how simple it was to configure. Planhat was also considerably less expensive.

Gainsight CS is more user friendly than ChurnZero on the CSM side and the UI in general is more up-to-date and easier to glean insight. ChurnZero just looks outdated.
