In general, we are very satisfied with WalkMe capabilities. We do, however, experience some frustrations with features that were promised by sales teams but don't work as well in our implementations. The core features work fine, but the advanced don't always work consistently. Read all insights and reviews for WalkMe Digital Adoption Platform

By Whatfix

(236 Ratings)
Overall, my experience with Whatfix has been really positive, but it definitely involved a learning curve. The onboarding was quite intense and long in the beginning, with a lot of information and different points of contact, which sometimes made the process feel a bit overwhelming. However, once we got through that initial phase, the platform proved to be really powerful and full of potential. Some functionalities do require technical support - and the support team has been consistently helpful, responsive and genuinely committed to solving our issues. Whatfix also offers strong analytics capabilities, valuable guidance tools and effective AI-driven search features. It's a robust solution that can add a lot of value, as long as the organization is ready to invest time in learning and adopting it properly.

Oracle Guided Learning is a powerful digital adoption platform that works best for large, complex Oracle environments. It helps users onboard and navigate Oracle Cloud applications seamlessly through in-app guidance and contextual help. The platform delivers value once it's properly configured, but implementation can feel heavy inf you're managing multiple modules. Read all insights and reviews for Oracle Guided Learning

The people at Cornerstone are fantastic. Very proactive and helpful which made the process as good as it could be. The system is very robust and there are so many offerings available that CSOD could have done a better job of clarifying what was and was not a part of our package. They also could provide more in-depth information on how certain parts of the system work. There were a good number of pitfalls in the process that could have been foreseen by experienced individuals that were not provided to us, causing us to do more trial and error than I think was necessary. But overall the experience has been great and that is truly because of the in-depth hard work of their implementation team and the support provided through their Global Support Center.

My overall experience with Userlane has been great and positive. Particularly in our Innovation banking space where we scale, compliance and consistency matter. Userlane has worked well for in-app guidance, onboarding and reducing the learning curve for complex internal and customer facing applications. To no-code (low-code) approach allows product, UX and training teams to build and maintain walkthroughs without heavy developer involvement. This gives our innovation team improvement in speed and reduces dependency on engineering resources. They most helpful is the analytics and usage insights to understand user adoption and identifying friction points. As part of our POCs we want to understand that first to make it smooth. There are areas that could be improved, like advanced customization and handling of highly dynamic or frequently changing UIs can be challenging and sometimes require workarounds. Additionally performance impact and governance controls need close monitoring in large regulated environment. Overall we belove they delivers string value for onboarding, guidance but continue improvement would make it even more effective Read all insights and reviews for Userlane
