This year for April Fool’s we played a trick on @Julian. For a couple of hours, inSpired became a place for Julians to discuss all things Julian (if you had the inSided employee custom user role). Julian took it pretty well - so I can only assume he’s been pranked in the past (maybe by @Ditte...).  Here’s what Julian and the rest of our inSided colleagues saw on inSpired...   How To Julian, Julian Articles and Julian best practices (we’ve got plenty of them)!  Julian voting on his own ideas, providing articles for himself, and asking himself questions.   Julian going the extra mile to be the top inSided employee on inSpired.  Before Julian found out...trying to bait him to visit the inSpired community. So many interesting categories to discuss with other Julians  Credits to @roberto.vecilla for showcasing the possibilities of our third-party scripts tool, and also@Thomas for inspiring us to do this (“you really should prank Julian more often”). Let us know if any of you also pranked yo

You may have noticed some recent improvements to Community search!   Advanced Filters When you search for information on the Community, you now have advanced filters available. Filter options include categories (CS, PX, Product News, etc.), post type (ideas, questions, articles), and tags.     Category specific search When you search within a specific category, the dynamic search results (displayed directly under the search bar) are limited to that particular category. If you view the complete list of results, you will see potential matches from across the community, along with the advanced filter options.     Happy searching!

We are evaluating Gainsight NXT and have some confusion on Salesforce Integration and Licensing - specifically this statement: If you have Gainsight users who don’t have access to Salesforce, they no longer have to bother with the Salesforce login process. They will be setup with a Gainsight login and username and will log into Gainsight directly (yay!).   These users will be able to access Salesforce data that’s been integrated into Gainsight via our Salesforce Connector. And any modifications that these users make to Salesforce data can be pushed back to Salesforce to keep your data in sync. This reads to us we could have 50 Gainsight NXT users whom are non-salesforce users updating Salesforce data? We are concerned as this seems to contradict Salesforce MSA on integration and indirect access that each user updating salesforce data requires a salesforce license. Does anyone have any insight here?       

Does anyone use Salesforce to house their Community? If so, how do you pull engagement data from the community into Gainsight?

Hey, I am getting ready to take the Gainsight Admin exam and I was wondering if there were any other exam prep materials out there to study from besides the training videos/quizzes? Any sort of tips and ideas would be useful!   Respectfully, Jose

I’m an experienced Gainsight user who is new to Gainsight Admin. Hoping to connect wih other Admins to get me through the pain of learning. I’ve inherited an instance and I’m not seeing the Admin part of it get an easier as I go through the online training. Hoping to develop a support network to help me get over the hump! I appreciate any connections!! Thank you.

The 2020 Community Industry Trends Report is available from CMXhub - it’s free and ungated. It provides some really good insights - top frustration for community managers - increase engagement. Most common objective for community managers - customer retention and loyalty. Less than 50% of community managers are able to track customer retention and less that a third are using a CRM tool to link to customer data. I am excited that InSided has a saleforce plugin that will link to customer data in development, this will help me show value and track customer retention. Download it today and share your thoughts

Prior to the recent Gainsight Community platform change, emails from the community when a post was created or updated would contain the context of the post.  This was so much more efficient – I could read the context of the post and/or the update directly in the email and if it wasn’t something that interests me or to which I feel obliged to reply, I could just discard it.Additionally, I’ve observed that I’m getting emails that say a “new” post was created, but it’s actually a response to a prior post.As an example, please see below.  I received this email today and it states “A new topic has been created in CS ideas” created by user “jaw”  However, when I clicked on the link to go view the post, I found that this was actually posted 5 months ago.  Apparently the reason I am getting an email today is because I previously commented on it, and today someone else also commented on it.   It’s very confusing to get these emails thinking they are new posts, when they are simply updates to a

I just wanted to share this with the community, especially those based in the Netherlands. Hope that's ok. Peter Staal and Kirsten Wagenaar from Bind have written a book about communities. The book 'Organising in communities' will be published in the autumn! For the book we interviewed dozens of organisations such as KPN, RTL, Philips, Shell, Ziggo and several municipalities and ministries in order to be able to translate theory into practice in the best possible way. The book takes the reader along in twelve chapters on the how and why of communities in which theoretical models, quotes, practical tips with a vision of the future and the role of business communities. Initially the book will be published in Dutch. Further information and to reserve your copy: https://www.managementboek.nl/boek/9789463191982/organiseren-in-communities-peter-staal#over

Hi Everyone,Good day!Since we have migrated to a new community, I would like to introduce the new UI. Click here to watch the short intro video for the same.Thanks! 

Because we live in a world wherein compliments or kudos are far to few and between, you all did a bang up job on the new communities stuff like Related Topics, keeps folks like me (sometimes) from asking questions that you all have already answered! Big kudos to you all 

I feel like I'm asking for a lot of things, and this probably doesn't fit here but commenting anyway - I understand there's a 'like' function here, but within the ideas section, it would be nice if we could see the highest voted ideas and also an option to vote for them or what have you. I saw a post from @julie_pinto about alerting on PM errors, which is a great idea - there were some likes, some comments, but I have no idea whether we would have more collective 'juice' through commenting, through clicking like, or where these ideas ultimately end up - I'm also too lazy to try and look through all the ideas here and 'thumbs up' all of them, so a kind of vote system for ideas, and maybe tagging them when they're something you've created an RFE or whatever for would be cool.
