Business Development Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "ClearSlide - Your next online presentation " May 12, 2022 4.0 I use ClearSlide everyday. It is very stable software. It's easy to use and has lot of useful tools and abilities to help any sales team. Pros This product integrates easily. Currently have it connected to Pipedrive and Gmail. It makes giving presentations easy, and had a lot of very useful analytics. Also, you can make email templates, and they plug right into the Gmail interface. ClearSlide does not use a lot of data, so for prospects that have slower internet connections, or limited data, presenting to them is less of an issue. Cons I wish we could design moving transitions and have other effects similar to Power Point and Keynote. I wish it worked better on mobile phones as a lot of meetings require getting the prospect to their computer. Review Source George G. Business Development and Growth Management Consulting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A great product with a lousy business model and challenging ramp up." July 26, 2018 5.0 Let me know when this great tool has a total change of management! Pros The basic idea of sending decks to customers which report back on not just on opening of the attachment, but how much they read, which pages they lingered on, to whom they forwarded it, etc. is really useful in a sales role. Critical, even. And Clearslide does it better than any other product I've tested to date (and i've really been trying). Cons It's not as easy to repurpose your original materials as you'd think. You don't start over, but you spend a lot more time. It's not as easy as, say, attaching a tracking pixel to a page. Worse, they abuse their customers! I got locked into a yearlong deal by mistake and their reaction? Too bad. And then they automatically re-upped me the next year without permission and handed me the too-bad story again! They require 3-months' notice to terminate your year-long deal. Really? No product is good enough to warrant this 'thank-you-may-have-another' treatment. Review Source KL Kurt L. CEO Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Could not use Clearslide & they auto-renew without notice" August 22, 2017 1.0 I only received minimal benefits from Clearslide as we spent a lot of time uploading presentations and creative assets, only to find we could not access them in corporate presentations where internet access was restricted or slowed. Pros Clearslide used to work fairly well for sales presentations in-person, online, or via email, but their inability to work well in corporate environments that restrict or throttle internet access for security reasons (like most big companies do), makes it hard to use. Cons Other than the fact that my sales team could not use Clearslide for what it was intended, their draconian billing practices are literally the worst. A sales rep offered a 1 year trial subscription. We found out very quickly we could not use the software (and they could confirm by our login and usage statistics), but we lived up to the term of our inital contract. Buyer beware. But then they attempted auto-renewed us for another complete year in advance, and after making several pleas with "customer success" personnel and even the CEO, they sent our account to a collection agency. I reccomend using anything else as there are many better sales presentation options out there, and avoid yourself the hassle of having to remember 90 days in advance of their auto-renew cycel that you need to cancel. Review Source Jonah K. Director - Market Insight Center Market Research Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I use Clearslide to share presentations with clients and as a conference line. " October 17, 2017 4.0 Mainly a screen sharing tool that has not let me down and a conference line. Pros Quickly pull up my presentation/search for others. Uploading is fairly easy as well. Minimal issues with people getting into the presentation. Cons Creating links to send is not great. The process itself is tedious. I feel like I should be able to choose 5 presentations I want to send to one company/contact and they should provide me 5 links. Instead I have to do them independently or group them all in one big link. Review Source Victor S. Account Executive Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Clearslide is very useful within our sales team. Benefits outweight the negatives. " October 18, 2017 4.0 Pros The software is intuitive and easy to use. The ability to store all the decks that we use and customer specific presentation is key. The integration into our CRM is also nice to have and bring everything into a closed loop environment Cons The formatting for presentation sometimes does not work and time outs are also an occasional issue. The access for international customers/prospects could be a bit more seamless. Review Source Lindsey S. Enterprise Account Executive Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great slide sharing tool for presentations and document sending" May 31, 2019 4.0 I'm not sure if I have any cautionary tales or advice- it's been a good experience all in all it's been a positive experience. Pros Clearslide is a wonderful tool for sales people. I love that I can upload a bunch of presentations and then hide slides as needed, show slides, move slides around, etc without having to re-upload every time I want to make a change. I also like the email tracking for view reports. I liked how you can customize each presentation on the fly as needed for each client and create custom links. Cons I don't really have anything bad to say- I've had a good experience with them. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Head of Sales and Customer Success Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Presentations and info sharing at its best" December 5, 2018 5.0 Pros I love how you can begin to create a library of documentation and how you can borrow from other decks to custom build yours and it only takes a few clicks which means you can honestly do it right before meeting in addition to conducting the meeting right within the application. Cons It does take a little bit of getting used to at the beginning so it's not as intuitive as you would expect but once you get the hang of it you realize it is quite simple Review Source CW Crystle W. Advisor Online Media Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Once you signup, they make it DIFFICULT to cancel. DON'T SIGNUP" May 7, 2018 1.0 Pros If you're looking for the features they offer and have long term plans to use them regularly, it could be a fit for you. Cons If you want to cancel subscription, you cannot do so in advance. You have to do so exactly at 90 days before the end of your subscription. No later, no sooner. Any later, and they will tell you sorry but the policy says 90 days notice. It was a PAIN to get a hold of anyone there to cancel our subscription ONE YEAR after we wanted to cancel because we missed the 90 day notice by a day. We had to call them everyday for about a week before we got a hold of someone who could cancel our subscription after paying an entire extra year for no reason. In my opinion, this company has no integrity and only cares about profit. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Social Media Marketing Manager Used the software for: ### "For sharing presentations, it's a great way to get insights into who has viewed what " April 6, 2018 3.0 Pros I love the analytics portion of the app. It's wonderful to see exactly how much someone viewed of a presentation, and to better understand where they're coming from when we have sales calls. Cons When I upload a keynote presentation, if I don't use the standard fonts, it replaces them. This messes up my formatting. I don't want to just upload a PDF of the whole presentation, because I want to be able to swap out and reorder on the fly. Too bad, if they used custom fonts, it would be great! Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Training and Development Specialist Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Easy slide sharing! " July 8, 2019 4.0 Pros ClearSlide allows us to share news/updates internally and also allows us to create Client facing material to be used during demos in our Sales department. We upload one-sheeter pdfs and are able to track analytics so that we can when reps are clicking on the resources. The Library organization is helpful as well! Cons Nothing negative has come up just yet. It has been a great way to share resources with co-workers and clients. Review Source GK Grace K. Sales Associate Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Clearslide is the best presentation tool our sales team has!" October 12, 2015 4.5 Pros I love how easy Clearslide is to use for the people attending the presentation. They do not need to download anything or go to a tricky link. Instead they are able to easily access my presentation and screen share. I also love how easy it is to log notes in salesforce after the presentation has been completed. It allows our sales team to keep track of everything and stay organized. Cons I wish the presentations were easier to organize within our company account. Each sales rep has multiple custom decks and they are all in the same view. It would be helpful if we could keep content in folders. Review Source MK Marc K. CEO Media Production Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Clearslide and Captivate" October 14, 2015 4.0 Pros The ease of use and ability to share with clients and prospects. Updating files once across the library. Cons The back and forth between PowerPoint and Clearslide to make changes to presentations. Review Source JB Jessica B. Representative Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Works well for sharing information" December 8, 2016 5.0 This product works well when implemented into training or into necessary conference calls, or to share presentations and information with others and to see that they're actually receiving it! Pros works well to share information and presentations to team members Cons so far we have no fully utilized it to maximum potential Review Source OB Olivia B. Graphic Designer Dairy Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "It’s good if you need it" March 29, 2019 3.0 Pros This is great for the feature of remote presentations, but that’s really the only thing I got out of it. Cons Not worth the penny for any of the other features offered. Review Source jS jamie S. Training Coordinator Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Decent Product Most of the time" October 27, 2015 3.0 Pros Being able to provide live demos to my clients. Its also very easy to use Cons Sometimes, it is very slow. also, i have had problems in the past where the person trying to view my screen can't connect to it. it simply thinks and thinks and never actually shows my screen Review Source MS Michael S. Business Development Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Interesting alternative to conferencing solutions." November 9, 2016 4.0 ClearSlide is a practical alternative to common conferencing solutions, especially popular in the US. The tool is relatively simple to use, however some of its features are not necessarily relevant and make the whole UX a bit more complicated. Pros Its more practical than many conferencing solutions out there. Cons Not as simple as I would wish. A bit overloaded with features. A bi pricey. Review Source CC Courtney C. Used the software for: ### "Easy software to share content with coworkers" November 9, 2016 4.0 I've used Clearslide for over a year in order to share our marketing collateral with our sales team and its been great. Pros Ease of use. Review Source SV Simon V. Director of Business Development Medical Devices Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "When this program works, it is great. When it does not, well....you're out of luck." September 6, 2017 3.0 With this software, it has the potential to offer an inside look on when/where the customer is viewing the content of your email. If you are on the side of trying to acquire customers with an email blast, it shows you how many customers view the content and precisely how long they took (seconds) viewing the information sent. Pros This software allows you the ability to see when the recipient on the other end of the email opens or views the content. As a vendor, this is extremely helpful when you know this information for a variety of different reasons. When you're able to know ahead of time the % that your consumer base opens or views content, it can create a more targeted approach when emailing. Cons If you open the content that you sent to your consumer. It will show that the customer opened the content, which is not true. It leads to a lot of misinterpretation when reviewing data. This creates headaches. Currently we are discussing options with other companies to get away from ClearSlide. Review Source KC Katherine C. Sales Support Manager Market Research Used the software for: 2+ years ### "An easy way to track clicks and to screen share" February 25, 2019 4.0 Pros ClearSlide makes it easy to track the clicks and opens of any links to collateral that you send to a prospect. It's also easy to share your screen during a remote meeting. Cons The remote meeting function is sometimes fickle and it does not work. This may be due to a full cache or some problem on ClearSlide's end. However, their Customer Service is typically prompt and helps you troubleshoot your issue. Review Source JW James W. Sales Manager Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "ClearSlide has a ton of flexibility!" May 16, 2019 4.0 Pros I like the ability to have multiple sales decks loaded, ability to go to a live window, and seamlessly bounce back and forth to provide the client with the best experience. Cons Occasionally they have problems with uploading new content and their customer service is not always the fastest. Reason for choosing ClearSlide Its features and functions Review Source DP David P. President Media Production Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Limited Value, Bad business practices (autorenew and unsubscribing) " January 26, 2018 2.0 Nearly impossible to cancel a contract. And even after contract is cancelled, impossible to unsubscribe to email notifications from the system. Pros Real time information on the who and when your pitch is being seen - good in theory and actually works. Cons Does not increase engagement . I suspect the delivery of the links might even reduce readership of emails versus regular email communications. Outlook integration never really worked properly. Unstable Review Source mJ mattt J. Pre-Implementation Onboarding Coordinator Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Clear slide is great for customer interaction" May 9, 2018 5.0 Pros Clearslide has the usual features, screen share and end user screen control. This makes it easy for the end user to show you exactly what they mean. Clearslide also has document sharing that allows you to see how far someone read your documentation and how long they spent going it. This is great for support and allows you to say "yes i see you read the instructions in 5 secs..." Cons The screen share can be a little sluggish depending on where the end user is located. Also the document reading function is dependent on the customer using the provided link. If they dont click you cant see stats. Review Source EB Eric B. Director of Sales Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Very sketchy business practices. Buggy, overpriced software. Be wary if you are a small company..." April 24, 2018 2.0 Pros Easy to share screen with viewers. Don't have much else nice to say honestly. Cons Conferencing lines are very expensive per minute, also they charge you per minute, per person who dials in which adds up FAST. Software is buggy. They also make it very difficult to cancel your subscription. Continued charging me for months after cancellation multiple times. Also if you are a small company expect VERY little support from customer success. Product is overall very overpriced for what you get. Review Source aB amanda B. Account Manager Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Platform, but random site crashes" February 13, 2019 4.0 Great tool, has a few kinks, but does wonders for our business Pros You can store & present you content and keep track of how many users click to view your content which is great for sales documents (one pages, OVDs etc). You can also copy content from other presentations so you don't have to reupload it. Presentation sharing is a simple URL & you can show your mouse! Cons The customer service when the site goes down isn't very helpful or quick. There's little flexibility in the format of items you upload. Review Source RT Ray T. Head of Operations Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Poor Service - Negotiate payment terms for performance" October 17, 2017 2.0 Pros We bought Clearslides for our business and on the face it looked great. The ability to aggregate sales resources, get analytics on sales assets, great tools for sales enablement, and video conferencing all in one. Cons Once we used it, we realized it had severe latency on video conferencing, animations on Keynote and Powerpoint do not work (fixed later) rendering assets useless unless in PDFs, among other issues. I tried to work with them on it for months and finally had to migrate to other systems. I asked for a refund on performance. They switched account managers, gave me the runaround and finally denied my request based on contractual terms which they were within their rights to do...and it is clearly terrible treatment of a customer. They acknowledged the issues we were having but refused to accommodate us. If you work with this company, and I don't recommend it, be sure to negotiate refunds for performance or don't sign the contract or pay the bill.
