Easy platform to implement with great analytics!

Pros
Customer service: the Consensus team is always will to received customer's feedback and welcome collaboration efforts to continue improve their platform.Easy of use: the system was very easy to learn. Reports: love the tracking reporting of who has accessed which demo, how long they accessed it. This information really helps the sales engineers to tailor live demos to what a prospect is needing. The "generic" out-of-the-box demo is completed using the recorded demoboards.
Cons
It would be nice to see an estimate of how long (or how much longer) is left when uploading content into the system. Often there is just a message that states "processing." But one doesn't know how much time is left for the processing to finish/complete.

The business process that Consensus is really helps with is the ability to understand what the client is focusing on, and helping reference the value to the client. It's so impactful. I have saved so much time on demoing to clients, because they are able to watch a Consensus prior and have a greater understanding before the demo (live demo.) This allows the client to have a understanding walking into the live demo, and then they are able to focus on more niche or specific questions to get answers, and overall speed up their decision making process.
Pros
Everything about Consensus is amazing. The ability to customize what you are planning to import, and once you are creating a presentation is truly amazing. I love the ability to upload anything in concensus to be able to share with clients, and the ability to see what they have watched and receive an audit trail. It allows sales representatives to also see the product, and ensure they are actually reviewing the content. It helps relay the value of the product to clients for purchase, and sales representatives to allow understanding of the product.
Cons
I wish it was easier to send multiple Consensus demos/videos to the same client at once. I also wish I could send it to multiple people in the same client profile verse having to do it individually. However, once you send to one client then I am able to populate the client demographic information for other videos/demos.

Consensus has the ability to make the entire process much easier and streamlined than any other product. Webex was extremely limited, and Consensus allows for much more variety when creating, importing and generating content.- Industry: Computer Software

Best way to gain a contacts attention!

UI leaves a little to be desired especially when first learning to use but overall very pleased.
UI leaves a little to be desired especially when first learning to use but overall very pleased.
Pros
I love how using consensus gives a unique touch to most contacts that gains attention more easily and more frequent. Using Consensus thumbnails has made huge impact in the number of contacts that view and respond to emails without a call first.
Cons
Working in the analytics world Consensus can have too many customized use cases for AB testing that can be at the expense of productivity, but its a welcome problem to have.

We LOVE Consensus. We are a software company and more than 30% of our deals close without ever doing a demo because our prospects are able to see our software in Consensus and determine if it will work for them. This has greatly increased our sales velocity.
Pros
It has allowed us to build an extensive Demo Library that allows our prospects to determine if we are a good fit for what they are looking for.
Cons
The Dashboard could use some work. Hard to find older viewership data.
