Gainsight Home feedback

Blockers to using:

  • Cannot re-label global filters.  Since we use lookups, each filter would be labeled GSID
  • Different Home experiences for different personas (similar to c360 assignment layouts)
  • Activity type when using a scorecard object defaults to Update, but should default to Health Score Update

Nice to haves:

  • Ability to lock global filters - for example, managed as Customer
  • Widgets should be clickable in Summary
  • Difficult to re-order (screen share might be needed)
  • Cannot create filters on non-Company objects - for example, Timeline author or CTA owner

@angela_domenichelli thank you for sharing the feedback here. We will definitely review this.

Additionally - the “My Portfolio” widget defaults to included churned/ inactive accounts. We would like this to only display “Active” accounts. I set the filter in the configuration to “active” but CSMs are still getting churned accounts

To add to these excellent points, “Distribution by Health” should have additional settings where you can determine which scheme is being displayed or display multiple schemes (numeric and color) since they have corresponding bands.

Also, certain global filters are cut off/not visible. I added filter G but it is not seen and the global filter section doesn’t expand like it does with the current dashboard experience.

Gainsight Home:

Current Dashboard:
 

 

CORRECTION: This seems to happen only in edit mode.

Admittedly I haven’t spent much time with Home yet, but when I initially kicked the tires on it in my Sandbox, I found that if I add the top level CSM field (that contains the GSID but has the label) instead of CSM → GSID I can see the label name on the Global Filters.

Also, if I add a filter for all the user types (i.e. CSM, RSR, TSAM, PS Assigned Expert) and set them all to Current User, it appears to filter appropriately based on the persona (I tested a few different folks), and then I assume the user can personalize their own experience. 

 

I don’t disagree having an Admin-published individual persona experience would be valuable, but this may be a workaround in the interim.

(PS it’s a big bummer there is no way to reset the filters back to defaults without going in and directly editing the filters)

+99999 to all above comments! We want our users to get a lot out of the new Gainsight Home and incorporating the above will help us all achieve this!

Great summation! I feel the Global filter concept should work like they do in Dashboards… where I can choose which reports I want them to apply to and also use mapping to non-Gainsight fields

Hi All,

Global Filters -

Currently the filters on Home is very much like the filters in a feature such as Timeline only on Company and Relationship. The rationale here is that Global Filters need that additional configuration around selecting objects, selecting fields, etc. It was alright when targeting admins, for end users they are used to select fields and filters capability that is present in Cockpit, Timeline, etc. for years. That being said, we will monitor any requests and feedback more on this topic to evolve the filtering on Gainsight Home. Same with the filtering on non company/Relationship object

(Note: GSID problem seems solve as noticed by darkknight)

 

Different Home for different personas -

This is definitely one of the top items on the roadmap of Gainsight Home. Would love to hear more on some usecases here - which all persona? Are all CSM’s or flavours of CSM’s or are we looking at Manager / Exec persona? 

 

Widgets should be clickable in Summary - 

Most widgets in Gainsight Home are already explained by additional widgets typically present in Home. My portfolio widget explains the attributes, Cockpit widget explains the CTA numbers. Can you share some additional flows that you would want? What about the idea of clicking the number and the home scrolling down to the widget if its below. 

 

Difficult to re-order

I totally understand what you were referring to. I want to update that we have improved the overall dashboard building and home building experience and this should be much easier now. 

 

Additional feedback items:

  • Activity type when using a scorecard object defaults to Update, but should default to Health Score Update - @shantan_reddy  some feedback on the scorecard report
  • Additionally - the “My Portfolio” widget defaults to included churned/ inactive accounts. We would like this to only display “Active” accounts. I set the filter in the configuration to “active” but CSMs are still getting churned accounts - @ana_g this sounds like a bug to me. Did you get a chance to interface with out support team? 
  • To add to these excellent points, “Distribution by Health” should have additional settings where you can determine which scheme is being displayed or display multiple schemes (numeric and color) since they have corresponding bands. @shantan_reddy   Some feedback on the distribution by health attribute.

@rakesh @angela_domenichelli 
Changing the default activity type for scorecard timeline will be available as part of the November release.
Very few customers have implemented multiple schemes currently. We have added support for multiple schemes to our backlog and will make it available in the future.

@angela_domenichelli mentioned the widgets in summary not being clickable and this is something we are also experiencing as a missed opportunity. @rakesh as you asked for additional desired flows;

  • As a CSM, I want to be able to click the distribution by health segments, so that a list of the represented companies appears for respectively my red, amber or green labeled customers.
  • As a CSM, I want to be able to click the segment of NPS responders, so that the represented list of Companies that are respectively detractors, passives or promoters appears.
  • As a CSM, I would like to be able to click on the number of CTA’s that are respectively Due this week, Overdue and Open, in order to be navigating to Cockpit directly and have the respective filtering applied.
    • Scrolling to the widget on the Homepage could be an alternative, but might have different filtering set up, so it will not represent the indicated number.

BR,
