Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • A simple tool that I can use as a hub for my journey maps. I really like that i can visualize multiple personas on one map, or see current-state and future-state journeys on the same map.
  • Easy to learn, web-based, simple to navigate, exporting features. The tool is super easy to set up and assign team members.
  • The ways I can use Smaply to shape my thinking and creative are just awesome... and so many use cases for this software! For some projects, I use it for messaging to different audiences. I'm also using it to create stories: personas=characters, journey maps=plot. For a particular project, it's easy and interesting to build multiple personas from available data. Building over-time journeys for them is fairly straightforward too. One very nice feature: Link several journeys together. Another feature I like is "stages." After I've analyzed the journey maps, I can relocate persona maps to fit under similar stages. Smaply also has something unique -- and brilliant called stakeholder maps. I plan to build them for each point in personas' journey maps. Essentially, it is a who-to-whom network graph, where you can specify the nature of every link. Wow!
  • It is very easy to find your way in Smaply. Every button is explained, and you can easily create a journey. It also has a lot of features to support the journey and can be connected with different programs. Useful to compare two different journeys too.
  • I LOVE the idea that multiple journeys can be linked or seen in one large format. Most of the journeys I've seen in other platforms are 1 (once in a while 2 at the most). They don't tell the full story that Smaply can.

Cons

  • I personally don't like the current interface, however they seem to work on it and I'm curious about the new version that's to come.
  • No undo (CTRL-Z) no simultaneous collaboration, and sometimes there is a lag for saving changes.
  • - I'd like to be able to add multiple Stages. It would allow multiple ways of looking at processes. - I can't figure out how to alter the pop-up form for "Steps," and would like to be able to change it.
  • I find the export options limited. The only way you can see the whole journey is through poster, but it is too big and you can't read without zooming in. Also, you can only design the journey from one person perspective -and this creates a problem. For example, sometimes, we want to show a continuous process where employee starts to do something and HR takes it over from them. But then, the lane of HR becomes empty during employee's actions and this does not look very well in the poster overview. Lastly, two person can't work in the same map at the same time.
  • Limited options for final presentation views are a bit concerning.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I find Supportbench an easy software to get work done more quickly and effectively. I for one find most of the features easy to use and operate.
  • User-friendly interface: Supportbench has a clean and intuitive interface that is easy to navigate and use. Comprehensive ticket management: The platform offers robust ticket management capabilities, including the ability to categorize, prioritize, and escalate tickets as needed. Collaboration tools: Supportbench allows team members to work together on customer inquiries and issues, ensuring that customers receive prompt and efficient support. Email integration: The software integrates with a variety of email platforms, allowing businesses to manage customer inquiries and support tickets directly from their email inboxes. Reporting and analytics: Supportbench provides real-time reporting and analytics, allowing businesses to track the performance of their customer support operations and identify areas for improvement.
  • Supportbench afford our group with a whole patron government system. Because the entire thing is regarding definitive platform, we perform rule every communications in incomplete area below accumulate a complete traverse over our customers then our teams.
  • Due to fact that the entire things is within a single platform, we are able to manage all communication regarding some area or maintain full oversight among each our clients (employees).
  • As the entire system is in one area, we are able to manage all verbal exchange and have full oversight over our clients and employees.

Cons

  • At first I had a few challenges and questions about the software, but after how the Supportbench team provided assist in a timely manner, I was good to go.
  • Room for more streamlined learning experience: Some users may find that a more streamlined learning experience would make it easier for them to get up and running with Supportbench quickly.
  • I recently found a Trojan horse (virus) in the regulation among one on my cases, however I posted to them the hassle then that was fixed the arrival day.
  • Despite having sent the problem according to them, the next day the problem remained.
  • One of my instances had a virus in it (Supportbench), but I reported it to them, and the problem become constant the following day.
