Highspot vs. Walnut

Great for delivering insight on which personas are engaging with the material shared. If I've had multiple meetings with personas, but they have not engaged with my proposal, I'm now able to understand the priority of our partnership and how it ranks within their other initiatives.

Great for SaaS companies looking to demo their products. We use it on sales calls and send it afterward. It can also be used before booking demos to show to potential customers, or by customer success to create a self-guided tour of a product. The customization options are great, as is the ease of creating demos.

• Outlook Plug-In is very easy to use and allows users to easily access Highspot content
• Highspot provides instant feedback when an email is opened and data about the length of time the reader spent in the document.
• Overall ease of use. Highspot is very easy to use and navigation is very intuitive.

• The search function can cause some issues if the platform is not set up correctly.
• It can be hard to build pitches - I wish it was a little easier to maneuver
• It seems like the tracking does not always work for pitch views.

• Some of the UX around the demo creation is still a bit janky. For example, your work does not save automatically - you need to be constantly saving it or all your work will be lost.
• The organization of all of the demos is improving, but things still get lost.
• Ideally it would be easier to replace certain attributes in bulk.

I love Highspot, it saves me a ton of time every single day. I like how my correspondence looks professional and I know what I'm sending is accurate and company approved. I'm able to add it to an email template in seconds and choose multiple brochures if it fits the information the student wants or requested. I can also customize templates to make them company specific when appropriate

I use Highspot every day. It is basically my go-to spot to find anything I need to know about the product, like pricing and internal processes. It also helps me provide value-added emails to my prospects with extreme ease. Without Highspot I would not have the current success that I have right now in sales.

I have not needed any customer support until now, I guess this is because they work on a proactive maintenance of the platform. We have an internal team working with Highspot so if I need help I go to my internal team not directly to Highspot. I have never heard any complaints.

From an investment perspective, Highspot was very reasonable in price for both the main platform and the LMS. The ease of use and management seemed to be a lot less than some of the others we looked at. If we had a more robust solution, I could see where there could be value in what the others offered, but for what we needed Highspot checked all the boxes.

Previously we created clickable demos in InDesign and XD. While clickable, they were nowhere near as realistic as Walnut, they lacked analytics, couldn't be customized, and they needed a designer to keep them updated. With Walnut, we can also add or remove features in a demo depending on what the customers' needs are.

Incentivized

• Highspot has created more efficiency within our Sales team as reps no longer have to "hunt" for up-to-date collateral
• Highspot helps us understand what collateral gets deals in pipeline
• Highspot aids in new employees getting ramped easier and faster with one location to review training content

Incentivized

• Previously, our demos were often out of date. This led to less satisfied customers buying things that weren't quite what we had. Customers now have a better idea of what to expect.
