Great help desk software
Great product that helped us while bringing on a very large client (for us). This product has given us a competitive advantage against others and is an amazing sales tool, training portal, reporting dashboard, support tool and account management tool.
PROSThe team is very responsive. You can see that they love the product and are there to help. We moved from a competitor who was mostly coasting.
CONSThere is a lot to getting this implemented. I would recommend the white glove support if they still have that as an option for installation.

A Solid Customer Portal for MSPs
The core functionality of the application is excellent and reliable. The things that work, work well. My review has been vocal in the shortcomings of its integrations with our business tools because we see the real potential the application could have to be a 100% automated self-service window into our entire customer relationship lifecycle. The product is 75-80% of the way there, and we are very satisfied with the portions which do work, and have no intention of shopping around for another vendor at this time. [SENSITIVE CONTENT] and the support team at CloudRadial are responsive and earnest, but have missed the mark a few times on transparency and setting realistic expectations for their commitments to develop additional critical features for the product. The introduction and expansion of other CloudRadial modules (like Assessments) have continued to reinforce the value of the product for us, and we're optimistic about the growth and future development of the platform.
PROSThe customer experience is straightforward. The functionality which exists is very customizable compared to industry standards. Managing Service Tickets, Assessments, Invoices, and customer Planner / Roadmaps is intuitive and easy.
CONSItems which have been on the CloudRadial software development roadmap for years have not been released or given firm timelines. Timelines for actively-in-development product functionality which have been expressed to us in emails or calls have repeatedly been missed, in the case of the ConnectWise Manage Projects module spanning all the way back to our original onboarding meetings in October of 2019 (it is August 31, 2022 when I write this). Critically, we receive regular complaints from customers that anything associated with a Project in ConnectWise Manage will disappear from the customer portal, as Project Tickets will not integrate with CloudRadial and customers assume it has been closed because it is simply impossible for them to see anymore. The Customer Planner is helpful for visualizing customer goals, but it does not integrate with the ConnectWise Opportunities our vCIO / AM teams use to actually report on and execute these plans, which introduces significant manual "paperwork" following customer Planner meetings to re-create our Planner items inside Opportunities.
Reason for choosing CloudRadial
CloudRadial's interface is cleaner than its competitors, and we saw a higher potential for growth and development in the platform.

Great idea but poorly executed
Having a central dashboard for both ourselves and our clients that we could customise with training, access to their web apps, ticket submission etc was the number one reason for this product. The dashboard looked great once configured.
CONSCustomising and setting up content for the dashboard was painful, confusing and very difficult. Support helped a lot but it needs serious simplification

Works great for tickets and opportunities, but look elsewhere if you need a portal for projects
CloudRadial has been great for getting clients the ability to see and interact with their service tickets, cleaning up their company directory, showing high risk users, MFA, license counts etc. CloudRadial's Customer service is excellent, however, notifications about potential outages due to changes could use some work. At one point no one was able to login to CR due to changes made during the day. this appears to be improving slightly, but being notified of upcoming maintenance, changes, updates, etc ahead of time seems like a no brainer and an easy win.
PROSThe end user experience in CloudRadial is amazing, it has a lot of robust data and features at your fingertips.
CONSAs an administrator and implementer, the setup is very confusing, takes a long time to adjust to the learning curve, and the lack of Project features to show clients is very disappointing.
Reasons for switching to CloudRadial
I changed companies via an acquisition, and CloudRadial was already purchased, but not yet implemented.

Must Have
We are working to drive all our main lines of customer engagement through the portal to help create a common experience from sales to support. Our use of CR is really helping transform our good process into something that is visible at all times to our customers.
PROSThe Cloudradial solution helps drive a lot of interactions we have with our customer into a common location from support to reporting to sales. Helping customers not go 10 different spots helps improve our engagement in many ways.
CONSNothing at the moment. We see continuous product enhancements and very happy with the solution.
Reasons for switching to CloudRadial
The native customer portal in CW Manage leaves a lot to be desired as you work to improve the cusotmer's digital engagement. Cloudradial provides a very easy and intuitive solution that puts multiple layers of information within our customers reach without having to pick up a phone or wait on a response from our team.

Game changing application for MSPs
I really like the software. It fills a gap for us and its here to stay. We have invested hundreds of hours in getting to know it and fine-tuning it for our clients.
PROSWe use Cloudradial as an account management tool for our clients to show their assets and compliance stats. Our account managers use the planner and meeting features in sales meetings with existing clients. In a few cases, Cloudradial was the app that got us over the line in pitches for new clients. I used the knowledge base a lot and we provide a ton of content for our clients, including their own policies (infosec, QA, HR etc). I like how granular you can be about who sees the published articles. We are increasingly using the policies section to report on compliance for our clients
CONSNavigation can be convoluted and long-winded. For example, if I am editing KB articles and I want to see which company groups a client belongs to, its a nuisance to exit KB and navigate back to the client to check, and then come all the way back to partner content. KB sorting and filtering is a pain. Every time I come back to partner content, all content groups are expanded and I have to scroll down to find the package I was working on. It would be very helpful to move content types (articles, courses, menu items etc) to tabs or all them to be rolled up by default. It would also be great if partner content was searchable. When publishing content, it would be great to have a check-box for each article to select whether it is published. I regularly have to remove an article from sight while an amendment is being written and would be amazing if I could simply uncheck this article and re-publish the package to remove the article from view. There is a work-around for this, but it is convoluted and time consuming.

Client-Friendly, Innovative, and Great Customer Support
Our company is not the only one benefitting from CloudRadial, but our clients benefit from having more information right at their fingertips. CloudRadial synthesizes our data, provides efficient means for managing tickets, and helps consolidate lots of ticket information into intuitive locations leading to a better customer experience. I can't recommend CloudRadial enough and I always encourage peers at IT Nation - Evolve to get on the CloudRadial train.
PROSWe continue to encourage our clients to go to CloudRadial FIRST. Our clients use this tool to enter standard support tickets which lessens the burden on dispatch, understand user lists and M365 quantities lessening the burden on Client Experience(CXM)/Finance, and clients can see their timeline for new projects which helps CXMs prepare for PBRs. In short, CloudRadial cuts down our cost of our most expensive resource, our employees while also streamlining processes that would previously take valuable time. Second, [SENSITIVE CONTENT] and his team are always attentive to our concerns and are willing to innovate when we suggest features and abilities that would make our job easier. CloudRadial is customer-focused and wants to put the best possible product in their client's hands and that is what they continue to do.
CONSAs a Finance person, I want simplicity and speed when syncing. Syncing features sometimes lag resulting in having to schedule myself to revisit issues from the previous day after syncing has occurred.

A game changer for us
The support team has been amazing. They are responsive both to support tickets and to feature requests through the forums. In the few years we have been using the product we have seen many of the features go from requests to deployed in the product.
PROSCloudradial integrates with our PSA, our RMM, and other tools we use on a regular basis. It streamlines the ticket submission process and lets you customize ticket forms for each customer.
CONSI wish there were more granular controls in the ticket forms. For example, being able to limit specific dates or creating different question flows based on previous answers. There is a feature to hide questions until a specific condition, but I would like it if it could be more granular.

A great piece of software with room for improvement
Overall I have really liked working with CloudRadial. I really enjoy working with the support teams and being able to solve internal and external business issues easily and quickly. There are a few things that I wish I could do more of but overall I am satisfied with the product. I would like to get more visibility into the development path for CloudRadial and I would like to see more focus on enhancing the current feature set instead of development of additional features and integrations.
PROSI really like the ease-of-use for the end user. Also publishing and managing content is a nice and easy to understand system for multiple people to be involved with. I like that I can use this platform to drive multiple parts of our business without needing a lot of extra effort in sea parting those entities.
CONSAdministration of the various systems is one of my biggest pain points. Teaching other administrators where to go to edit specific pieces of information is cumbersome and it feels like the administrative portions are spread out to every corner of the software, making it hard to ensure that things are handled properly. Another portion that feels incomplete is the ticket submission forms. Forms are great and there are some good options but there are some missing features around choices that are made. Choices in the form can effect the form questions, however those questions are unable to affect routing decisions or how tickets get categorized when they are created.
Reason for choosing CloudRadial
The visual presentation and desktop agent were the main deciding factors, as well as the customizability and price.

Amazing product for client facing
Overall, CloudRadial offers a powerful platform for us to manage our client relationships and service delivery. Its features and capabilities help us to improve their operations, increase client satisfaction, and grow their businesses.
PROSCloudRadial allows MSPs to provide our clients with a unified and branded interface to access our services, including support, documentation, and reporting.

CloudRadial offers a comprehensive platform for MSPs to manage their client relationships and service delivery, which can help us improve our operations and grow our businesses.
CONSIts price is a little higher. It is a subscription-based service that adds to the operational costs of our MSPs. It has little difficulty setting up and configuring the platform to our specific needs, although CloudRadial offers support and resources to help us overcome any challenge.

Great Product, Getting support however...
The organization is great, but the inability to actually CALL someone and speak to a human being for support absolutely blows.
PROSIntegrates well, but has a LOT of interconnected pieces all of which must be aligned to work as desired, which is a little frustrating. It's a little over-complicated in my opinion.
CONSIt's complicated with too many inter-dependant/inter-related components and settings.

Worth every penny - but have the time to devote to a proper deployment
Overall experience has been fantastic. The support team is very responsive and helpful. Our clients that use it, love it. Getting them to use it and the buy-in has been the biggest challenge that we're still facing.
PROSReplaces the dated client portal in our PSA. Allows for contact sync between M365 and our PSA. Broadcast and messaging feature. The desktop application and details associated with a support ticket entry are very helpful.
CONSLearning curve. While there is adequate documentation some of it is unclear for the novice. Price is creeping up, and I suppose that's the case everywhere. But I'm seeing little value in the increase as most of the features are for other PSA's or integrations we do not use.
Reason for choosing CloudRadial

Lots of potential if you invest the time.
Our primary focus initially was on the account management features for Assessments, Policies, Dashboards, Reports, and Planner. There is plenty of "meat" in there to help shape your vCIO discussions.
CONSIt requires a TREMENDOUS investment of time to really unlock the potential of the system. You may have to re-envision how you engage with your clients. For us it took 3-4 weeks of really solid work to get the system ready for a client beta. It was well worth the investment, but without that effort, I'm not sure how much value we would derive from the system.
Reason for choosing CloudRadial
We chose CloudRadial for two primary reasons. One, CloudRadial better aligned with our business model from an Assessment and Planner perspective. Two, CloudRadial just seems to be emerging as the market leader from an integrations perspective.

Overall, I have had a very positive experience with CloudRadial. It took quite a while to implement and it is a lot of maintenance, but it provides lots of value to our clients and the support team is very quick and responsive when I need assistance.
PROSI like how much I can customize the software to each of our clients. The support features, documentation, and customizable links make it a great central place for our clients to find almost everything they need from us.
CONSManaging hundreds of different clients is a big chore that could be improved with more options for duplication, import/export, and more granular permissions. We also really need to be able to view project tickets.

Cloud Radial, or how to ease the connection with the clients for MSP
We were searching for a customer portal to ease the communication with our clients and users. From this point of view we reached our goal. We need to work a bit more to be able to master the report and QBR.
PROSThe first step of the integration was quite easy and straightforward. After a bit of customization, the tool was ours. The first time our clients saw their tickets appearing on the screen of their computer, with all these information reachable in one place, I could saw the stars in their eyes.
CONSThe lack of customization on numbers of forms or data list is quite annoying. As for example, it's not possible yet to change the column displayed on the "workstations" category. It's not possible to customize the reports content. My clients doesn't need all these information about their computer on every report, yet I cannot change that, and I have to send this unoptimized report.

Cloud Radial has been great to allow our customers to gain access to their service tickets via ConenectWise. The portal is far superior to the ConnectWise portal.
PROSFor us and our customers Cloud Radial has been a great tool. It allows our customers to log, review and close their service tickets from a simple dashboard. We have also started exploring using assessments and the planner to help with customer meetings between our sales team and site contacts. I highly recommend Cloud Radial if you are looking for a customer portal. The support is great and the online documentation is some of the best I have seen. Highly recommended.

Platform to help mature your business
QBR Planning and Compliance management was the reasons we started using CloudRadial. We have implemented most of the features and has become a very important part of our business process.
PROSThe most impactful tool from this software for us is the Planning tool. This allows us to share information with our clients in a central location in a format that creates budgeting and project plans quarterly. This sets the expectations with the client and helps us schedule ahead so we are consistently hitting our schedules and budgets.
CONSThe software was initially wasn't intuitive to setup. After working with the trainers it reduced our learning curve and improved our efficiency using the tool. I understand it is mandatory for new users to take the training which wasn't when we started using the software.
