Chose Scratchpad
Scratchpad's pipeline views allow for better forecasting. This saves me time using multiple tools and views to get a better pulse of where I am at and where I need to be. I selected Scratchpad as it was recommended to me by a colleague, and once he showed me how he was using …
It doesn't. Scratchpad is more agile and much easier to use as a seller managing a large patch with lots of opportunities. SAP is robust but is far more complicated and involves a lot more inputs to get the same outputs that you can get with Scratchpad in half the time and …
I can't think of another tool similar to Scratchpad. The only other sales productivity tool that I've used in the past is Mixmax which is also an excellent tool. Mixmax has more features embedded in Gmail with the ability to view and edit Salesforce fields like Scratchpad, but …
Scratchpad is just a much more enjoyable way of interacting with Salesforce for the features it currently supports. It's not an alternative to Salesforce, it's an alternative UX for certain daily activities in SF, and it's great at that.
Before finding Scratchpad, logging account movements and mapping were done over OneNote (account management), Excel (pricing), and Word (call notes). Now I can get rid of the OneNote and Word aspects as they both sit on Scratchpad that links directly back to SF. This has helped …
I prefer the usage and benefit of Scratchpad over Coda, and easier & faster to use than Salesforce. I feel Coda has very little benefit (basically google page), but Scratchpad helps me stay organized for opportunities & discovery notes which is crucial. I highly suggest …
Scratchpad customizations stay within the margins of rules set by our organization. We didn't do a deep dive of Dooly and can mainly speak to the quality and effectiveness within Scratchpad. Currently, my entire team of 10 reps is using it, and we all have found usefulness. …
Before Scratchpad, I made all updates through Salesforce. Reports don't load super quickly and can be tough to change. Scratchpad makes this much easier.
I haven't ever used anything else other than your typical pen and paper or notes section on my Mac. I wouldn't have any info on how they stack up compared to the competition. I would venture to say they are the only ones trying to change sales reps' lives. It's just what they …
I selected Scratchpad because the depth of integration within Salesforce is very useful; I don't have to use a separate application than what I'm already using, Scratchpad is imbued within my Chrome and SFDC instances. Their free capabilities don't block you from viewing notes …
We selected Spekit because of its superior customer service and ability to handle our use case to have our Salesforce Stage Gates fully populated. The ability to have a definition "on-page" for Salesforce fields was critical for us.
Spekit may not be as robust as Confluence or organized as SharePoint, but its use of embedded tooltips (Speks) and browser extension put it in the S Tier for "just-in-time learning" platforms - particularly for customer-facing teams.
Spekit is fine, I just feel like it doesn't have the world's best upfront organizational tool. I like Atlassian Confluence due to the ability to have pages and have an organized thought. That does take significantly more effort to keep it organized and up to date which everyone …
I have over 250 accounts in my name, and it can be difficult to prioritize and find notes on past conversations my colleagues may have had. Scratchpad makes it super easy to reference past notes and add new ones to organize my book of business and make the best use of my time.
Good situation: when you have way too many tools hosting content, Spekit is great at bringing everything together so I don't need to remember where things are hosted. I just need to know ish how to search. Bad: I feel like it still doesn't help people discover content nearly as much. The nice thing about a Confluence or other systems like that is that there are resources right in front of you, VS having to know what to search for. Also, I hate the extension, stop cluttering up Gmail.
As an administrator, it is very easy to navigate. I can easily see which content is performing well, which content has not been touched. It's simple to teach new team members how to create content. We have added new authors easily in multiple groups in the business.

I credit Scratchpad to saving me on average about 1 - 2 hours a day (what it used to take me) and about 5 - 6 hrs per week.
Scratchpad makes me feel better about where I stand in regards to my quota cause it gives me easy visualization into my pipeline making forecasting discussions easier with managers.
Scratchpad enables me to stay organized and helps me feel less overwhelmed with Admin work.
The time saved from using Spekit is incredible. No more calls/emails asking "what's this field for?" or "How do I do ?" It's all right there, thanks to Spekit.
Using Spekit has provided an unexpected morale boost because it's not only easy to use, but it's making work more enjoyable too.
