Your community should be as global as your business, but limited resources and the overplayed direction to “do more with less” make it challenging, if not impossible, to provide a localized experience that resonates across your diverse customer base. Traditional methods, such as segregating communities by language, have fallen short, leading to a fragmented user experience that diminishes user engagement and, consequently, the overall effectiveness of the community on a global scale.Your community members, regardless of location and language, should feel welcomed and empowered by your online community, which is why we are proud to announce the launch of the new localized interface in Gainsight Customer Communities!  A Step Towards Comprehensive LocalizationThe localized interface is a significant leap toward addressing the need for a unified and inclusive community experience. This feature allows admins and community managers to configure the community interface in up to 18 different languages. Your community members can then use the language selector to seamlessly translate the interface into their preferred language, creating a cohesive and inclusive user experience across the board.We’ve also added extensive customization options to ensure that the interface not only speaks the user's language but also reflects brand identities and acknowledges cultural nuances across all supported languages. Our goal is to enhance user engagement by providing a localized experience that feels native to each user, regardless of their location or language. What’s New?Multi-language Support: Besides your default language, you can now set up your community interface in up to 17 additional languages, catering to a broad user base.   Language Selector: Enable users to easily switch the interface to their preferred language, promoting an inclusive community environment.   Customization and Brand Alignment: Customize the interface to align with brand identities and cultural nuances, enhancing the user experience and engagement.   This is just the first, but pivotal step, in our ongoing commitment to delivering a community platform that is truly global yet locally relevant. We're breaking down language barriers and building stronger, more inclusive communities by fostering an environment where every user can navigate, engage, and connect in their preferred language.For more information on how to set up and customize the localized interface for your community, please refer to: What's Coming Up NextAs we continue to enhance our localization capabilities, we are excited to share a glimpse into what’s next.  Dedicated Categories for Different LanguagesSoon, admins and community managers will have the ability to create dedicated categories within the Community and Knowledge Base modules for the different supported languages. This advancement means that community members can navigate and discover relevant content in their preferred language.Enhanced Navigation and Content DiscoveryWith this update, community members will experience an interface that truly feels like it was made for them. Navigation and content discovery will be confined to the categories of their chosen language, streamlining their experience and ensuring that they are only presented with content that is accessible and understandable. We’d love to hear from you!We are dedicated to providing you with a truly global solution that caters to the needs of diverse communities around the world. We're excited to see how you leverage the localized interface to enhance your communities' global reach while ensuring a highly localized experience for every user. Stay tuned for more updates!As always, we’d love to hear from you! Let us know if you have any feedback or questions below.Ciao!

Technology-driven businesses grapple with the challenge of balancing broad data insights with personalized, human engagement. And, that problem gets magnified in Customer Success. Your book of business consists of companies, but the reach of those companies includes a highly matrixed organization with complex relationships between departments. If that doesn’t complicate things enough, day-to-day interactions happen with individual contacts who carry their own opinions and perspectives when it comes to your product. Gainsight brings customer insights in focus at all levels using Customer 360, Relationship 360, and now Person 360. While powerful individually, together they offer a multi-layered solution, allowing businesses to navigate the complexity of customer relationships with precision and a personal touch.See Your Whole Customer With Customer 360 It is said that hindsight is 20/20 and any customer success manager would love a crystal ball into what the future holds when it comes to retaining customers. With Customer 360, you get the benefit of both. Customer 360 provides an aggregate historical view of data and analytics from across the Gainsight suite of products, as well as other critical sources like CRM. In addition to the snapshot of what has happened, it also gives you a look into the future by highlighting trends and insights that help you make decisions on customer escalations, interventions and opportunities to grow wallet share via CSQLs.  This holistic perspective enables businesses to understand and anticipate customer needs, fostering stronger relationships and paving the way for more clarity on the best approaches to protect and expand revenue. Connect More Dots With Relationship 360  Relationship 360 enables teams to take customer success management beyond company-level insights. By focusing on the intricate web of relationships that exist within each customer organization, Gainsight provides an easy and efficient way to gain a comprehensive understanding of several components of a company. Whether it's between departments, across products, or through geographic regions, Relationship 360 offers a detailed view that encapsulates the full spectrum of interactions and connections within a customer's organization. This approach results in customer success teams being able to address unique needs and challenges from different parts of a customer organization. Go Deeper With Person 360 The addition of Person 360 allows you to cascade your data down to the individual level, providing a detailed view of each contact in your customer organization. By pulling in data like sentiment, survey responses, Community actions, product engagement and more, Person 360 allows customer facing teams one place to access insights into each individual's preferences and history with the company.Having quick access to the granular details for individual contacts drastically cuts down prep time for customer meetings. Additionally, this user-friendly feature also gives team members the ability to initiate actions like Timeline notes or email engagements directly from Person 360. Person 360 brings value to your collective go-to-market efforts, including: Marketing: Quickly uncover opportunities for advocacy and get insights for targeted campaigns that resonate with personas by reflecting real preferences and behaviors.  Sales: Prepare more relevant pitches, meetings and offers, easily accessing insights to understand the dynamics of various stakeholders involved in renewals or expansion opportunities.  Customer Success: Quickly identify at-risk detractors early and take targeted actions to address concerns and improve satisfaction. By unifying customer insights that tie together data relationships and go deep into individual contact data, businesses can craft a customer success strategy that is both broad in impact and personal in focus. This holistic approach can help inform new ways to drive customer engagement, satisfaction and loyalty by meeting customers exactly where they are in their lifecycle with your business. .

An impactful community is reliant on two main factors: humans and content. At the heart of every community are the human connections and interactions that occur, but making that content discoverable and accessible is what takes a community to the next level. It is important to effectively curate user-generated and company content, but let’s face it, we’re not all expert web developers who can code our way through it.That’s where the widget library comes in! Widgets are the building blocks to easily create and customize your community, and just like your community is evolving and growing, so should our widget library. That is why we are thrilled to announce the release of the Dynamic Content Widget and roll out a few additional widget enhancements.Let’s dive into the good stuff! Now Available! Dynamic Content WidgetAfter a successful beta, the Dynamic Content Widget is officially ready for prime time! This powerful tool is designed to enable you to curate and showcase the most relevant content across your community without needing to manually update the widget.The Beta in Review:During the beta, we fine-tuned the widget to offer essential features for efficient content management. Now, you can filter content by topic types and sort it based on various metrics like total views, last activity, number of replies, and date of publication. These functionalities ensure your community stays organized, and users easily find the most engaging discussions.Based on valuable feedback from our users, we decided to take things up a notch. Now, you can filter content based on article, question, and conversation types, as well as refine selections by defining categories from both the knowledge base and community forums. The widget will display content exclusively from those selected categories, streamlining content curation and enhancing relevance. Additionally, the widget now supports a list view alongside the existing card view, optimizing space and flexibility. What’s New?Following the beta, we incorporated even more ways for you to tailor the widget to suit your community's dynamics.Public Tags: Choose content tagged with one or more public tags. Publication Date Filter: Display content from a designated timeframe (e.g., the last 30 days), alongside content, category, and tag filters. Unanswered Question Filter: Spotlight unanswered questions to encourage community engagement and supportWhere to find the Dynamic Content Widget:Adding the Dynamic Content Widget to your community is a breeze. Simply select it from our widget library and customize it to match your page's aesthetics and layout, whether you prefer a full-width display or a 2:1 widget layout. Widget Enhancements: Improved UXWe also made significant improvements to our existing widgets to enhance the user experience and flexibility across your community pages.Quick Links Widget:We’ve improved the Quick Links widget user experience to make it smoother and more intuitive to use. Now, configuring, visualizing, and adding Quick Links to customizable pages has never been easier, whether directing users to key community sections or external resources.Layout Options:We've introduced enhanced layout options for two of our popular widgets: Featured Topics and Dynamic Content. Both now support a list view, optimizing the use of real estate on customizable pages, providing greater flexibility in content presentation,  and boosting user engagement.We’d love to hear from you!We hope these enhancements will help you deliver timely and engaging content throughout your community, and streamline your workflows so that you can focus on the human side of your community.Have any feedback or questions? Let us know below!Happy curating!

One of our core beliefs is that anyone, regardless of their technical background, should be able to customize their community the way they want. To double down on that, we’ve made some big enhancements to the Events experience in Destination to make it easier for you to promote your events on your community, and for your customers to find and join those events. Customization ModeWe’re excited to announce that the Events page now supports customization! This means that you can add widgets to your events page using our widget library. For example, use the customizable search banner widget to search through Events, or insert a banner widget above the events list to promote a large upcoming event or do a call for speakers. New Tabs and Event Types FilterMoreover, we’ve added a couple of new navigation elements to this page. First, we added dedicated tabs for Upcoming and Past events to make it easier for customers to search through all your events without having to scroll. Your community members can also use the new Event type filter to narrow their search down based on the type of event.More Add to Calendar OptionsUp until now, users could only add an event to their Google Calendar. Starting today, your users can also add events to their Outlook and Apple calendars. Delete Event TypesYes, really. You can now delete Event types! Enjoy greater control and organization by removing redundant event types from your repertoire. Improved Event CardsTo improve the way that we show events on the Events page, we have made a couple of smaller quality-of-life improvements:Dates now include the year of the event, making it easier for your users to know how long ago an event took place We also show the user’s current timezone after the time of the event, to better clarify what time this event takes place The Event type tag is no longer overlaying the featured image but is placed next to the featured image Customize Your Events Page Today!To start customizing your Events page, head over to the Events page in Destination, click on the “Customize” button, and make any changes you want. Once you publish your customized Events page, this customized page will now be the default page for your users. Note that after publishing your customized Events page, there is no way to revert to the old experience. ImportantYou can enable and customize the Events page yourself until June 1, 2024, so you can control when it will go live for your users, and with which styling. After June 1, 2024, we will enable the new customizable Events page for all customers by default, with default branding (so no hero image, default page title, etc.). Don’t stress! We’ll send you a reminder if we see you haven’t enabled this yourself before the deadline. Thanks for Your Help!Many of these improvements were sourced from your great ideas! Here are a few of the ideas we closed with this release.  Have ideas for other features or enhancements? Add them here! What’s Next?Up next, we’ll focus on improving the Control side of Event management, by introducing a new and improved Event creation flow, allowing you to save events as drafts and duplicate events with ease.Let us know what you think in the comments below

Welcome to the year’s first round-up post for Gainsight Customer Education. The year will be jam-packed with new features, integrations, and updates designed to enhance the learning experience and help you drive better business outcomes. We have a lot in store, but for now, let's dive into what’s new today, including learner-facing transcripts, learning path dashboards, and a new navigation bar to align Customer Education with the rest of the Gainsight product suite. Keep Users Engaged with Learner Transcripts  We recently launched admin transcripts, which give you an all-in-one destination to understand how your users are engaging with your academy. (To access learner transcripts, navigate to the People Tab → People. Then, select a learner and click on the Activity Tab.)Now, we’re introducing learner transcripts to give your users their own one-stop shop to see completed items, including courses, learning paths, instructor-led training sessions, and certificates. The result? Better organization and more motivation to learn.Note: If you have a custom academy and don’t currently have learner transcripts, reach out to your CSM for assistance. Learner-Facing TranscriptsLearn More About Learner Transcripts Understand the Impact of Your Learning Paths Our analytics suite has always given you access to rich academy-related data to help you understand course popularity, track course completion rates, and more. Now, we’re giving you two new dedicated dashboards—this time to help you understand the impact of your learning paths. Here’s what’s new: Learning Path Progress: See how many people are enrolled, in progress, or have completed a learning path.  Multiple Learning Path Analysis: Analyze progress across multiple learning paths—activities, progress, and performance.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​With these insights, you can identify trends and patterns with your learning paths, make more informed decisions, and optimize the learning experience for all.  Learn More About Learning Path Dashboards Updated Navigation to Align Customer Education with the Gainsight Universe Next time you log into Gainsight Customer Education, you’ll see we moved the navigation from the top of the screen to the left-hand side. Why? To align our platform with other Gainsight products and move one step closer to a platform that gives you everything you need for your education, customer success, community, and product experience needs.  Updated NavigationLearn More About Gainsight’s Product SuiteWhat Else Is New in Gainsight Customer Education? Wait, there’s more.

Have your learners noticed how much faster your academy is loading!? New Email Requirements: Google and Yahoo are now enforcing stricter rules for sender domains, so we’ve made some changes to our Communications engine, including a new “unsubscribe” button and configuring our default email domain. All that’s left for you—if you have a custom domain—is to set up a DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance) record.To learn more about Gainsight Customer Education features and best practices, visit the Share Industry Knowledge and Discuss Product Features forums.

Tailor the widget to fit the design and user experience of your community. How do I enable the widget?To activate this feature, simply navigate to the Open Betas page in the control panel. From there, you can enable the widget and find it in Destination within the widget library. Things to note:Once enabled and added to a page, the widget will remain active until it is manually removed.

Your inputs are invaluable and will help us continue to refine and improve this feature! 

Our updated ProctorFree integration now supports continuous proctoring across all quiz attempts in Skilljar. When a learner retakes a Skilljar quiz with our ProctorFree integration, the session will be proctored even after a previous proctoring session has ended. This enhancement ensures every retake is monitored, maintaining integrity and fairness for each learner’s quiz experience.

Your community members need a better, more focused way to control their email notification preferences. That is why we are excited to roll out a new, dedicated Notifications tab on the user’s profile settings page! Give your community members the ability to manage their notification settings and control what emails they’d like to receive and improve the overall community experience.Learn what’s new and what possible actions you might have to take after this release.What's new?We've separated the notification settings from the general community experience settings. This means your community members now have a specific area solely for managing their notification preferences. The new tab offers a cleaner, more organized layout, making it easier for your users to find and adjust the settings they care about. Now there’s a dedicated URL to the notifications tab to link to from other places (eg. your system email footers)Getting startedTo explore the new Notifications tab:Log into your community account. Click on your profile icon in the top right corner. Select Settings from the dropdown menu. You'll find the Notifications as a new tab on the Settings pagePossible action requiredGiven we’ve introduced a new URL to directly link to the Notifications tab (yourcommunity.com/settings/notifications), there are a few things you might want to check.For instance, you might have linked to yourcommunity.com/settings/general for your users to manage their notifications (eg. from a system email, from a community post, etc.). While this URL still works, it will now direct them to the General tab that does not show notification settings. Feedback? Questions?Your input helps us improve. If you have any feedback or questions about this new feature, please don't hesitate to reach out! 

Revenue tracking and reporting on student purchases is even easier now in the Skilljar Data Connector, thanks to new tables that include plan data. The new tables are called plan, plan_tag, and plan_enrollment.

You’ll see that reflected in our updates below, and you might notice the shift in our marketing, on our own community, and in our name. Gainsight’s community product will now be aptly named Customer Communities! While we are still actively working on our Customer Hub vision, we realized a truly integrated, seamless customer experience was much bigger than just community.

The tools we use are crucial to maintaining a healthy, engaging, and safe environment. That's why we're excited to announce a significant update to the Topic Moderation Page (TMP) - a major milestone in our suite of moderation tools. A Technical Leap Forward 🤓It all started with a vision to enhance the TMP by reducing defects, using new technologies and ensuring feature parity across different content types. This change was driven by our commitment to innovation and delivering the best possible experience for our moderators and community managers. Preserving Core Functionalities. Understanding the importance of continuity, we ensured that all essential functionalities of the existing TMP are retained in the new version. However, to align with our goals of efficiency and modernisation, certain features like the IP popup, Profile popup, and tracking of personal unread replies with a scroll to new reply function were not carried forward. This decision was made considering the high implementation cost and our focus on more impactful features.  Short-Term Benefits: Enhanced Experience. Immediately, we should notice fewer bugs and small yet significant UI improvements. We are also adding functionalities like attachments in Product Updates and ideas on control and destination, enhancing the moderation process's versatility and effectiveness. Long-Term Benefits: A Foundation for Future Growth. Looking ahead, the refactored TMP sets the stage for rapid and seamless integration of new features. It opens up possibilities for moderating additional content types such as educational materials or event-related discussions. Moreover, the redesigned UX/UI will not only make moderation more intuitive but also more enjoyable.  Celebrating Progress and Team Effort 🚀The team's dedication and collaborative spirit have been the driving forces behind this successful refactoring. The new TMP is the team’s commitment to our community managers and moderators, to provide the best tools to foster vibrant and safe online communities.This update is a significant step forward in that journey, and we're excited about the future possibilities it unlocks! Thank you all for your ongoing support and feedback, which have been and is invaluable in this process 🙌
