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 …
First, we had a social studio which was good in terms of functionalities but slow. After that, we had the chance to use Talkwalker & social bakers which were good tools yet not enough compares to Sprinklr
The tool is the best compared to the competition. It has advanced features. It is more difficult to master the operation, but in the long run, it is beneficial.
Many tools are the same, but the one where I noticed the biggest difference was between brandwatch and Sprinklr when it comes to social listening. Brand watch has a good and more affordable social listening platform, but it is not as easy to use and requires the client to code …
We also use Meltwater in our BU, and the good thing about Sprinklr is that you can actually compare your data numbers with the key word searches. Meltwater is limited in that it doesn't offer a wide range of services. Although the graphs and some other analysis functions on …
These tools were good to manage social interaction when you just have one or maybe two social media managers who take care of anything. When it comes to teams, there was not a good way to manage bigger amounts of requests and to have an overview of who does what. So you waste …
Easy to use/user-friendly is the first benefit that comes to mind. It's very intuitive and doesn't require any training to get up and running and to start seeing the benefits.
The social listening and benchmarking dashboards of Sprinklr Modern Research have been a huge game changer for our department. They allow us to gauge the competitive landscape and monitor any trending topics in a particular space which allows us to realign our priorities for …
We previously used Sparkcentral for our social media care. While we were very happy with the team there, the product had not evolved as much as Sprinklr and we found it to be lacking in its ability to handle different languages, route certain types of conversations with higher …
I've never used any Sprinklr Modern Care alternatives, but when it comes to communicating directly with customers, I much prefer using Sprinklr Modern Care over contact form and email interaction.
Prior to Sprinklr Modern Care, we used vBulletin and a custom repository to address the community needs of our customers. Keeping the experience user friendly was a key point on our needs list and our custom solutions and vBulletin forums were only positive experiences for our …
Evaluated and considered tools like uservoice, Lithium, Jive, and SuggestionBox. Ultimately, being able to quickly provision the system and test drive things in real-world situations really influenced the decision.

Chose Sprinklr Service
Uservoice.
We really liked the way that the Sprinklr Modern Care technology worked. It was really simple, easy for customers. Ultimately the technologies are not that different. The bigger reason is that we really appreciated the team at Sprinklr Modern Care.
• We use a tool called HelpSpot for email ticketing. They have a knowledge base for FAQs but no forum / community platform. Their technology not nearly as good
• We looked at a number of tools that did either FAQ or feedback or community, but none except Sprinklr Modern Care …

Chose Sprinklr Service
We briefly used Hootsuite with another client. From day one, there were issues, from logging in to trying to compile data. We very quickly switched from that to Sprinklr.
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.
Sprinklr Service has always been well-suited for all of the work we do. As it's all social media content, and most require responses or escalations, Sprinklr Service covers all of that. The only time I think we wouldn't need it is if we were working with a much smaller client who didn't need us to have eyes on so many platforms at once.
Transparency—Sprinklr Modern Care allows us to engage with our customers openly and honestly. Even frustrated or angry customer posts offer an avenue for us to display our business integrity and turn negative experiences into positive ones.
Moderation—Being able to moderate and organize our community so easily by merging topics into one canonical thread or archiving out of date threads helps to keep our search results relevant and improves the chances that our visitors find the help they need easily.
Company Visibility—The ability to easily alert any company employee of topics that might be interesting to them helps to improve the overall visibility of our customers. It also makes it easier to spot trends and encourage quick action if many people comment on one topic with the same problem.
I find it difficult to dive into analytics for each social post. The reporting tool gives me an overview of the channels but I would love to look at a breakdown of each post performance.
You currently can't add closed caption subtitles to videos uploaded through Sprinklr so this results in having to revert to the native platform.
I would love to be able to set up a newsfeed that includes posts from a number of our partner accounts, so I can keep up to date with what they're posting.
The initial use of the product started out as a 90 day test to see if we could engage customers at a higher level using Sprinklr Modern Care. After a year the use of Sprinklr Modern Caren has now been extended to multiple products.
It's a very easy program to learn and use. I have trained over 50 people on it over the years, and not once has anyone had trouble using it. It's very user-friendly and covers all the bases that social media moderation requires.
No issues with system availability. They manage updates in off-peak hours and I usually don't notice the changes until I log into the system the next day.
Performance is great and is not negatively effecting our processes. We have to make sure it doesn't effect out load times. Not currently seeing any issues with widgets affecting page load times.
I know the Sprinklr conference calls have been helpful, but sometimes submitting a ticket can be a little daunting. In the past, we've included information in screenshots that are then asked for by a member of the support staff. The turnaround time has been between 3 days, which isn't horrible.
Basic setup took me less than 30 minutes. This includes initial configuration, putting in the initial content, and getting the look-and-feel customized. The domain routing took the normal lag time any other website or blogging service. The really important thing was to get the user accounts setup and begin seeding the system with content before a public launch.
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.
We previously used Sparkcentral for our social media care. While we were very happy with the team there, the product had not evolved as much as Sprinklr and we found it to be lacking in its ability to handle different languages, route certain types of conversations with higher priority or to certain teams / agents. It also did not have as robust a reporting structure as Sprinklr does
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.
Increased employee efficiency: Having a clear, one-stop "shop" where users can leave feedback, ask questions, and find bug fixes or workarounds has saved me (and other community managers at my company) loads of time that was once spent responding to numerous emails on an individual basis.
Better customer service: Since everyone in the company is alerted of what's being written on our forum, it's easy to spot a high-priority issue, delegate to the person in charge, resolve it, and respond as soon as possible.
