• It's an excellent tool for collaboration. The UX is friendly and intuitive and our team loves the internal chat.
• The workflow is seamless and provides easy-to-use features for the team and leaders to do what they need to do.
• The integrated knowledge base is easy to manage, search and use.

• Bringing back the option to see not only who is responding to a customers post, but actually seeing the response as they are typing it out. That was a neat feature to have.
• It will timeout, which is a bit annoying sometimes but not a huge deal.

Sparkcentral has never given us a good reason to consider any other option. Aside from all the positive points I mentioned in previous areas of this review, something else that has really impressed us is their customer service (makes sense, they're a customer service company after all!). Any time we have a question or concern, we send them an email and we get a response almost instantly.

The system meets all my expectations.

Incredible customer service team that replies back very quickly, follows up on the reported issue till it's resolved in a very timely manner.

Sparkcentral is in an excellent place - they are the only true stand-alone social media customer care platform. We also provide support through Oracle RightNow (Chat/email), but the social add-on for that appeared to be weak. Hootsuite works fine for small teams of low volume customer care, but for a dedicated social care platform, we could not find anything else worth considering

• Providing customers the option to contact us via social media cuts costs for the company by lowering call in numbers and creating a more efficient way of assisting customers where they are.
• Currently there is not an option to separate outside of business hours reporting for response time and within business hours. This can cause a pain point when reporting to other departments as it calculates a higher response time than the accurate one due to outside business hours.
