User Testimonials
Gainsight PXUserIQ
Likelihood to Recommend
It’s a robust tool that allows you to easily map and track key features and actions within your products. It also allows for in app communications to help guide the user through the path you want them to follow. The ability to connect with Gainsight CS also allows you to leverage that data to drive actions for the account team, incorporate it in health scoring, and use it to trigger digital programs. You do need a well thought out strategy for management of the platform, the data and how you will use it.

User IQ is appropriate particularly for unlocking insights into information about the customer without any problems, like mentioned previously the health dashboard is particularly liked within the business. On the visual side, It is also strong as it is fairly simple to use. Perhaps one less suitable is to actually present this data informal settings, as the output isn't suited for this.

Pros
  • Mapping your product is easier with PX than with Google Analytics (mapping your product makes usage data appear as hits on mapped URLs, buttons, etc)
  • PX is good at showing simple messaging popups to customers.
  • PX Badge functionality—a persistent hover- and click-enabled popup launcher, positioned on select pages and attached to select elements—works well as a self-serve resource for users. It can be unobtrusive yet right there when needed.
  • PX modal content is fully editable HTML with plenty of flexibility.
  • Audience filters are really powerful. You can target users by many built-in and dev-configurable attributes, like device-type (which helped me work with mobile web users), browser, account, parts of the application visited/used in the last day, and many more.

  • Customer service is excellent.
  • Once you get the hang out using the walkthroughs, they are really beneficial.
  • Running reports of users on surveys!

Cons
  • Generate reports based on predefined segments is not possible. This is essential for us for creating an onboarding workflow.
  • On-screen guides randomly lose their mapping and need re-calibration. This might be due to our application responsive technology.
  • Missing customization on certain engagements - Creating a delay is not possible for all types which is needed.

  • Adding Heat mapping/Scroll tracking/Live user session viewing - I think this could give me further options for segmentation and give me higher visibility of where customers may be facing difficulties when creating further in-app messaging.

Usability
It is a good product, but like with every product, there is room for improvement or even just things I, as a user, would prefer, such as the ability to click on a company and have it go to Salesforce instead of Insight. It can also be difficult to find certain reports.

This rating is given as to a certain degree it is useful - as in the customer health dashboard and providing a very fast service which is easy to use for our users. However, as mentioned prior, the exportation of this data into presentable information (presentation style) is not really possible without doing yourself via screenshots and interpreting the data.

Support Rating
I have not had to contact support frequently but when I have I used the chat and my questions were answered immediately. I've also used their knowledge center, help documentation and training videos which are all very thorough. The support we've received from our Customer Success Manager has been helpful as well.

Customer service and support is one of the biggest strengths for UserIQ, whenever there has been any issues or confusion, the help service is very effective and friendly to support us and get to a conclusion within no time, hence why the ranking given is extremely high for this factor. I would not say any improvement is needed in terms of this aspect of the company.

Alternatives Considered
I have used and evaluated a few similar products to Gainsight PX, including Appcues, WalkMe, and Pendo. I found that Gainsight PX was the most comprehensive and user-friendly platform, offering features such as customizable onboarding flows, product usage tracking, and automated customer success workflows.

Return on Investment
  • Customer Sentiment. Customers have been excited when we can show them data around usage and where we can improve.
  • Deciding to remove features. We have used PX to identify features that have little to no usage which allows us to get rid of unnecessary process and maintenance.
  • Identifying areas of improvement. We are able to find areas of our product that we need to focus on improving where previously we would have missed or had a tough time justifying spending time and resources.

  • We've been able to identify clients who are missing value in our product based on health scores and usage.
  • Expensive product for the value it's delivering to the Product Team but may make it back in ease of use over Google Analytics and other competitors.
  • Often have spent resources trying to troubleshoot when something breaks. Would prefer a little more stability although some of that may be user error.

ScreenShots

Gainsight PX Screenshots

Screenshot of Access all of your key metrics in one place.Screenshot of PX Dashboards offer an interactive way of viewing data. By default, Gainsight provides you with the Gainsight PX Dashboard, but you can create separate Dashboards for each user, based on their requirements. 

For example, you can create a Dashboard, set it to private and grant access only to the top-level executives who are interested in viewing the performance of company KPIs. You can create a Dashboard for a Product Manager and include widgets which show key metrics for the product they own.Screenshot of Gainsight PX connects directly to your CRM and other customer data sources, letting you leverage custom events with no limits on what you can explore – all without using any query language.

Track specific events and compare any number of different cohorts and behaviors to learn more about a specific behavior or validate a specific hypothesis. You can use the group by functionality to aggregate results based on specific fields, and you can analyze custom event properties based on the property values. This may come handy when you want to measure the event properties such as video play counts or monetary values you're passing to Gainsight PX via custom events.Screenshot of Product Mapper® is an easy to use way of describing your product features with a simple "point, click and describe."   Each mapped feature can be viewed hierarchically within your Product Feature Tree®.   

Features can be organized in any way that makes sense for your particular application.  For example, you can organize by modules and features or you can nest sub-modules under modules and add features at any level.Screenshot of You can use existing templates while setting up Guide engagements. You can even save the newly created/modified template and use the saved template in the future in order to save time. Once you select the template, you can modify your template–no coding required, but it's there if you want it.Screenshot of Present targeted and timely in-app surveys so you can get more relevant feedback from the right people to better understand their needs and wants, and easily see the results in real-time.
