Chose Khoros Service
In my opinion, Khoros Marketing is superior to Khoros Care in every way except queue management. Sprinklr, Hootsuite, and Social Studio are all similar products in terms of responding to users, but they are not as flexible with labeling.

Mattersight BA is a better tool because it is more comprehensive and truly aligned with the business needs.

DISC was more of just breaking people into categories. BA goes beyond that and gives you more insight and brings a little humor with it. I taught DISC for 5 years and never seen a class retain the information as much as I have seen them retain the information from BA.

I haven't used any products similar to this. I have taken other test such as the Meyers Briggs & DISC and like that Mattersight focuses more on the "why" we have the preferences we do vs. just what we prefer.

Mattersight gives a lot more information as to customer personality. There is also heat mapping in the analyzed calls which direct you to specific events or behaviors that need coaching.

The fact is, there is nothing like mattersight anywhere in the market. It's a complete package. It provides call recording, screen capturing, call analysis and continued training and improvement. However the thing that sets it apart most is really the Behavioral Model which has …

This is the closest product that I have found that matches with Mattersight. The painting portion of Mattersight is its strongest feature. However Calbrio allows for the listening of third party portions of calls.

Chose Mattersight Behavioral Analytics (discontinued)
Verint will allow us to record and retrieve calls, however there is not an analysis or coaching component to it. The analysis must be completed by the auditor or supervisor.

While there are many products on the market for speech analytics, Mattersight does a very good job of driving improvements in agent performance through very targeting coaching.

We have used Qfiniti for our recording of calls in the last 7 years. Qfiniti has been a disappointment due to the space and PCI.
Chose Mattersight Behavioral Analytics (discontinued)
The fact that Mattersight's recording technology records in stereo and allows the linguistic technology to separate out the customer from the agent is a major positive for Mattersight. The technology is superior to other call recording technology we used (Calabrio) but is also …

If you need a content management system that allows you to add a wide variety of label categorization and have multiple users logged in at the same time, Khoros Care is suitable. However, I cannot say that it's the best system to use. There are other systems that have the same or similar features without as many issues.

IF it is cruicial in your organization to have the internal conversations recorded, this is NOT the product for you. If you do not need that, the savings in time by the software analyzing calls in a way where you can search for specific incidents is fantastic. The training on personality types and how to work with each one is also a great tool for any organization. I can say if it weren't for the rep to rep recording piece, I would give this product a 9.

Pros
  • Manages and pulls in posts from communities, Facebook, and Twitter so we can address them in one place as opposed to logging into each site natively.
  • Khoros Care has great analytics. I like the customizable dashboards; we use them for weekly reports to upper management.
  • Khoros Care helps our social media manager manage and monitor our teams.
Read full review
  • Easy-to-use portal that helps users locate and review pertinent coaching opportunities.
  • UI that is tailored to the company and displays key points within a call. This eliminates the need to listen to the entire call when looking for something specific (caller distress, rep empathy, etc.).
  • Solid training that explains the Mattersight model and how to interact with different personality profiles.

Cons
  • I would like to be able to see deleted comments/tweets so we can look into the issues.
  • I would like to be able to better customize dashboards for our exact metrics. Some things previously available in Spredfast are no longer available in Care.

  • Reporting and functionality isn't always consistent. This could be due to compatibility issues with the functionality of the software our company utilizes and what their system is recognizing.
  • Help the our team come up with more specific actions we can take to improve our performance.
  • Although we have had the same liaison for the past year or more, we have had 3-4 changes of account managers over the 8 years we have been using the system. I think we currently have the best person for the relationship.

Simply, there isn't anything on the market that is quite as personable as Khoros Care. After using a few different client messaging systems, this program gave the closest feel to in-person interaction that we could get during the COVID-19 epidemic and is an important part of our agency still to this day in 2023.

The ability to auto tag, manually tag, make notes, and "snooze" posts is extremely helpful. The efficiency of the work flow for agents is also a huge plus. It keeps agents moving quickly and prioritizing responses for the cases that need it most.

The pages load very quickly. The reports are nice. I wish I could understand a little more about what is on the reports and what all the sections mean, but once you remove the information that is not needed the reports are easy to filter through and read. I do wish that we would get Outlook notification for comments and monitors.

Khoros Support has always very responsive and helpful when it comes to getting my issue/inquiry addressed. Their ticket portal is great for tracking any open tickets and they can be updated via the portal or by responding to the email thread.

Mattersight gives great support. Every time I reach out to them I get a response within the hour, even if it is just to tell me that they will check into the issue. The staff always stays in contact and even after changes have been made or answers given they follow back up with you and make sure everything is going smoothly. The Mattersight team never makes you feel like you are burden and it feels that with every contact they grow a little more as well.

This was a great class. We learned so much about the program and our team through the on-site training provided by Mattersight. The trainers were very professional and playful at the same time. They really brought the training to life. The trainers were great at answering all questions and making sure we could train our staff in the same professional, yet fun, manner.

It was really nice to start slowly and train leadership and then slowly start implanting of BA to the staff. This helped with coaching and helped with new staff as they hit the floor. We found that this helped the staff relate and share stories to help with team dynamic. Great system.

The fact is, there is nothing like mattersight anywhere in the market. It's a complete package. It provides call recording, screen capturing, call analysis and continued training and improvement. However the thing that sets it apart most is really the Behavioral Model which has been developed.

Of course as the company grows owing to its growing customer base, they need to think of out-of-the-box solutions to offer its clients and customer satisfaction is one of them. Retention is very much needed in competitive environment like today and hence it becomes imperative for companies to find different ways to reach their client basis and fix their issues

Return on Investment
  • We have seen a positive shift of customers from reaching out to the Call Centre to the Social Care Team.
  • Monthly and Annual Reporting to keep track of performance and stats related to the team has been much easier to highlight areas for improvement (month2month and anually)
  • CSAT/NPS Survey results have increased via Khoros Care in comparison to the Call Centre.

  • We believe we improved our customer service with our employees working with our customers and adapting to their styles.
  • We improved our manager's efficiency selecting calls to monitor and conducting impactful coaching sessions.
  • We had challenges determining a true ROI as we found it difficult/impossible to fully isolate Mattersight's impact to our bottom line. It was hard to attribute our lead conversion applications and revenue directly to Mattersight with several other external factors in play.
