This innovative approach not only enhances buyer satisfaction but also empowers revenue teams to achieve their goals more effectively.

    Using Consensus as a Sales Tool

    Date: Apr 11 2024
    Summary

    When I have used Consensus the most is for Sales enablement and customers reviewing recordings and specialist areas of the product. Often someone is unable to attend our meeting or we need to include a global audience, so by being able to get our demonstrations across to a wider group AND track how they are interacting with that content is key to our sales process. This is a great product that our whole team use, and is absolutely essential to our sales process. Because it is a cloud solution and has capability to send content globally, as a global organisation ourselves this fits in perfectly with our requirements from a sales process.

    Positive

    This is a great tool that is absolutely essential to our sales process. We often share recordings and demo's so this is a great sales enablement tool to help with our customers. As an organisation we use this tool daily and it is key to communications between customers and prospective customers. Easy to use and capable of holding any videos and content that is crucial to send in an attractive format for our sales process. Having used the system for over 2 years, it has been key to how we share demonstrations to wider audiences, especially those that are global and require different time zones, so they are not able to attend the live version of the meeting or demo! Great product!

    Negative

    In general Consensus is great, it would be useful to have some more intuitive navigation around the product for users who haven't accessed the system before so they don't need training to come in and create content themselves. The tool is great for being able to send information to customers and prospective customers, and the analytics could be easier to access or supplied in a more data friendly format.

    Love GoConsensus!

    Date: Nov 20 2024
    Summary

    I love using GoConsensus. It helps my process in getting the attention of new prospects and tracking who in the organization views my demos that I send.

    Positive

    GoConsensus is super helpful for me in my day to day for getting new prospects attention and getting them to respond back. I can't tell you how many first meetings I've set right after a prospect views the demo's I sent through GoConsensus.

    Negative

    The UI isn't necessarily the cleanest, even though I like it.

    Great Sales Enablement Tool

    Date: Jul 10 2024
    Summary

    From a user perspective it is a wonderful tool. Any organization that is live demo heavy and get request for pre-recorded demos this is a great tool.

    Positive

    Easy to use. Great analytics. The integration with Outlook allows an easy way to insert the link for short on-demand videos. This allows prospect to choose what they want to see and when. Consensus then captures this information and reports on it.

    Negative

    I heard content creation was difficult, however, I've heard this has been addressed through additional features/functionality.

    A New Type of Client Engagement

    Date: Jul 12 2024
    Summary

    Consensus is an amazing opportunity to reach out and interact with clients. The innovation is still being enhanced and is increased in value by the support they provide beyond the implementation of the product. The representatives are more than willing to jump in the fray with you, seeing you through to success, in every way possible. This, I believe, is only the beginning.

    Positive

    I appreciate the creativity of this platform, in engaging with current and new clients. You have room to specify client data for each client, as necessary. It serves as a serviceable proxy for a live, in-person meeting. Also, customer support is stellar, doing all that they can to address and ensure your concerns are resolved in a timely manner.

    Negative

    Initially, there were problems with the reporting, indicating if and when clients were viewing the demos sent to them. It took a short time (approx. 30 days) to work out, at first.

    Consensus - A New Way to Win Business & Curate Custom, Customer Experiences

    Date: Apr 27 2024
    Summary

    Overall, Consensus is one of the critical pieces of software I use on a daily basis. I send demo videos after many of my prospect calls and use it as a means to keep prospects warm in my pipeline. It's changed the way that I go after and close business.

    Positive

    Keeping prospects warm in between meetings is mission critical. Consensus' platform allows me to create custom content that is delivered in a seamless, low-pressure environment. I can now engage with my prospects and share resources with them that are customized and meaningful within the context of our engagement.

    Negative

    The front-end UX is a little clunky compared to other SaaS solutions, but I haven't seen it meaningfully get in the way of a prospect being able to access the content I am sharing with them.

    You should have got Consensus for you business yesterday!

    Date: Nov 19 2024
    Summary

    My overall assessment and usage of consensus have been nothing but positive. I would recommend this platform to anyone who is looking to have a solution that provides a visual illustration of the products/services their company provides. It's helped the sales team I work with and I can't say enough good things about it.

    Positive

    1. Really insight analytics - Consensus provides detailed insights into how prospects engage with the videos, helping sales rep understand what resonates and what doesn't with their prospects so they can tailor their outreach.

    2. Scalable Customization - Consensus allows teams to scale personalized outreach that ensures prospects receive relevant info without requiring significant additional effort.

    3. Consolidated Repository - I've found that having all the videos in one consolidated location allows for easier access, both from sales rep and prospect, to videos, and sales reps can organize highly specific outreach to clients.

    Negative

    New users experience a learning curve, but the platform's benefits far outweigh the "cost" of the learning curve.

    The only other con is that consensus doesn't integrate with all CRMs and marketing tools, which can lead to a more manual process. However, it does integrate with Outreach, so it's been exceptionally beneficial for me.

    Positive

    How helpful it is in accelerating deal cycles by allowing demos ahead of calls. It allows us to focus on the details during our face to face time.

    Negative

    Can be timely to send videos due to the fact that you have to upload lots of info for trackability

    Date: Nov 28 2024
    Summary

    I like this tool as this is a very easy tool to share videos to clients. I'm commercial and I found very hard to explain technical issues, so these videos help me to explain what we do and track their interactions with it.

    Date: Apr 16 2024
    Summary

    I use the Consensus platform daily to send pre-recorded demos to prospects and deals that need to be accelerated. The great thing about the platform is that you can record personalised introduction videos. I can see a measurable improvement in the deal velocity of my deals thanks to Consensus.

    Positive

    platform is very easy to use, there is a great library of demos, and great integration with Gmail to quickly send to prospects.

    Negative

    There is nothing really of note; it has great experience so far. Keep up the great work.

    Overall i really like using Consensus. I've been using it for about 3 years, i used to use Smart Links, previously Point Drive for Sales Navigator, but now i couldn't imagine using another product.

    Positive

    Easy to use, integrates well with Salesforce, easy to share lots of content with multiple contacts all at once.

    Negative

    The only negative point i can think of is how content looks when shared on social media.

    Great product for Sales Enablement and tracking buyers journey

    Date: Jul 30 2024
    Summary

    We have used Consensus with limited licenses for our Sales Team to engage with prospects and share video content with them as part of Sales cycle We followed buyer journey using Consensus Dashboard to gauge buyer actions and interest

    Positive

    I love that the prospect/buyer journey on Consensus is captured not only on the application dashboard(videos watched, survey questionnaire responses, time spent on video, etc) but also records activity on Salesforce Contact instance. We can determine the view of user based on the profile, and can give several options on video content so they can watch what is of most importance to them

    Negative

    While the customization is good, the app posed some challenges when we tried to integrate with an overall Marketing campaign in a step-by-step cadence. We had trouble syncing with Marketo and the landing pages on Consensus weren't giving full pledged flexibility in UI

    Powerful and Easy to Use!

    Date: Apr 15 2024
    Summary

    Aside from the excellent tool, the service from Consensus during the implementation period was excellent. I would definitely choose this tool again.

    Positive

    This tool is intuitively designed and very easy to use. I particularly like the integrated video software. Some of the video editing tools that I've tried are very powerful, but are hard to learn, but not Consensus. I was productive in minutes!

    Having the information about when your prospects viewed a demo and what sections they deemed most important is invaluable and can enable more timely follow up by Sales.

    Negative

    There isn't really anything that I don't like about the Consensus tool.
