Currently, we (admins) are able to log in as a different user via Salesforce in order to troubleshoot but this is not a feature in NXT. We are planning on moving some of our users who do not need Salesforce licenses to Cloud only access which will vastly limit the amount of troubleshooting I can do on my end when end users have issues. It’d be great if this feature was available for super admins in NXT.

    This would be handy considering admins can’t enable support access for end users either, only themselves.

    @acote We will look into this and will prioritise it based on how many customers want this feature. The number of votes on this post will also help us in prioritising it.

    @soumitrasahu , Every customer will look for it. There are chances for customers not getting support from Salesforce IT to have login as flexibility. Most of the enterprise customers will surely have audit function and they may not allow such login as permission to all Gainsight oriented salesforce profiles or permission set. If you consider the list of enterprise customers itself, i think Gainsight should develop this feature with in application to trouble shoot by internal Gainsight admins for their own business users.

    +as many points as I’m permitted

    As deployments grow in breadth and depth, the ability to troubleshoot user issues efficiently is becoming key. I think there’s even a case to be made that giving in-company Gainsight Admins some ability to impersonate users would deflect cases from Gainsight Support. It’s certainly a customer-centric feature that would make the Gainsight experience better for Admins and End Users.

    +100k too! MUCH NEEDED!!!

    The most expensive part of building is the mistakes. That's true in construction. Not so much in CSOps. So ask questions, make mistakes and learn. All views expressed here are my own.
