My overall experience with Velaris has been highly positive, and I’d easily rate it a 4.5 out of 5 stars for how effectively it has transformed our Customer Success team from reactive to proactive. The biggest standout for me was their exceptional "done-for-you" onboarding and data migration support, which seamlessly combined with their powerful AI features to give us instant, consolidated account health summaries that save us hours of manual work every week. That said, it does come with a steep initial learning curve, and the interface can occasionally lag when navigating heavy data or trying to customize specific reporting and success modules. Ultimately, it has become an invaluable single source of truth for our operations, making it a top-tier choice for any scaling SaaS company willing to invest a little time into mastering its robust feature set.

Prior to Totango, our CSM's were managing their books of business using a chaotic mix of Salesforce reports, spreadsheets and sticky notes. Totango brings order to that chaos by centralizing product usage telemetry, support tickets, billing data, and CRM integrations into a single Customer 360.
