Why I rate VisualSP so highly.

I have been an advocate of VisualSP for many years since I view training and adoption planning as the number 1 priority in making a project successful. In all my dealings with the VisualSP staff I have experienced nothing but responsiveness, technical expertise, helpfulness, and a willingness to make each implementation successful. It is the quality of their people that makes all the difference.

PROS

The implementation of M365 solutions in very complex, but from a technology standpoint it is straightforward. It is not the software that causes problems, it is the lack of training and planning for change that is the main risk to project failure. VisualSP helps reduce this risk by forcing organizations to think about training across the enterprise. It provides a framework for the training department and others charted with the success of the project to really think about the needs of the end users.

CONS

The implementation of VisualSP can be tricky for those who have not done it before. Luckily their support team is fantastic.

Vendor Response

Hi Jim, we agree with you that, not only are M365 solutions very complex, but pretty much all technology is complex. That is where VisualSP really shines because you can use our application anywhere. VisualSP isn't restricted to the M365 stack, but rather can be used with any web-based application such as SalesForce, ServiceNow, and Workday (plus many, many others)!

VisualSP: Top-notch software and company

My overall experience with VisualSP has been incredibly positive. My company just implemented VisualSP Online this year so we are still in the very early days of roll-out, but I truly hope that my company will see the amazing potential and leverage VisualSP for communications, training announcements, onboarding programs, etc. Thank you, VisualSP!

PROS

VisualSP is the most innovative and easy-to-use help platform I've seen. The fact that it is completely customizable with such a wide variety of available functionality makes it the most effective training, onboarding, and communication tool I've ever worked with. What really makes VisualSP stand out is how responsive the company is to feedback, issues, and questions. I always receive a response from them the same day I email their support team, and when I suggest changes to their functionality, they take it so seriously that I have had my suggestions implemented to their system within a week. They also host regular meetings with my company and hold monthly customer meetings for knowledge-sharing across companies globally. Recently they have also taken steps to integrate their software with SharePoint Online, creating an amazing onboarding solution. The value of this software and company is priceless. VisualSP has set the bar very, very high. Bravo!

CONS

Every improvement I've suggested to them has already been implemented or mitigated, so this is a tough question to answer. The only area that could use a little improvement is to get better alignment from Microsoft on a simpler help item grouping strategy, but I know that VisualSP is already working on improving this and we were able to customize ours anyway.

Vendor Response

Thanks for the great review! The learning curve for VisualSP is very short compared to many of our competitors. We can have you up and creating your own custom help items after a quick tutorial, but provide functionality that enables you to get as fancy as you want.

Flexible, customizable, and extremely helpful.

My experience with VisualSP just keeps getting better and better. They really work on customer satisfaction and want your company to succeed with using its solution. They offer monthly customer roundtables where they show new updates, and get feedback from customers on what they would like to see improved or added to the product. They offer monthly webinars for users to learn more about various applications or user functions. Recently they added free monthly account reviews where they go over your VisualSP stats and work with you to reach your goals. The value for the money keeps adding up year after year.

PROS

VisualSP allows my users to get the contextual help they need at a simple click of a button. Being able to display help items based on the section of the application they are using simplifies the help process. I love that I can create my own help items as needed, create or incorporate help items into a SharePoint widget, and make my own walk-throughs. This software is so customizable and flexible you can do pretty much anything you need with it.

CONS

Nothing so far. If there was something that was confusing, or hard to accomplish, VisualSP takes that feedback and improves their product. I have no complaints.

Reason for choosing VisualSP

The features and value of VisualSP was far greater than the other product. We would have been wasting money if we didn't make the switch. The value of having one product for use with multiple applications and that is fully customizable was a no-brainer for wanting to make the switch. The customer service with VisualSP has also been amazing. Not once did my previous product representatives reach out to me to see how I was doing with their product or keep me informed on product updates. VisualSP makes sure that I stay informed and they are always asking for input for their product. With VisualSP, I feel like a valued customer.

Reasons for switching to VisualSP

The price for VisualSP was highly competitive but the flexibility within the VisualSP platform is what won us over. Our last platform was only for SharePoint where VisualSP is for all of Office365 and can also be used for any web-based application. The value of having one product for use with multiple applications and that is fully customizable was a no-brainer for wanting to make the switch.

Vendor Response

Hi Anissa, thank you for your detailed review! VisualSP began as a SharePoint tool but has evolved into our Ask Vic product that can be used across many different web-based applications. We always try to over-deliver with product features and customer support. Thank you for being one of our valued customers!

Dramatic reduction in questions, support, and training requests

Great overall experience. VisualSP is much less expensive than hiring a support person, and extremely effective.

PROS

As a solution developer, when a solution goes into production, I want to move on to the next project. Before VisualSP, I was frequently interrupted with questions from previous solutions, regardless of how many different ways things were documented. Now if there is a new hire, a change, or support issue - everything they need is right in front of them. This does require that I document things since my solutions are custom for my organization, but it’s made such a big difference (reduced questions, tickets, training requests) that it’s just a part of my process now. A note that VisualSP is most effective when you use it - the content packs will get you started, but adding content is where you really see results. You don’t have to start at the very beginning- start where you are with the next question, the next release, the next announcement, or the next solution.

CONS

I don’t have any complaints. VisualSP is always rolling out smart new features, and their support is very helpful.

Vendor Response

Hi Pam, thanks for the detailed review! VisualSP really shines when utilized as part of a support process. You can cut down on interruptions by creating a help item with the answer to a frequently asked question. Then whenever that question comes up, give the user a link to the help item which will open up the appropriate web page and answers the question in-context.

Quick and speedy support tool at your fingertips.

VisualSP will help reduce the cost of time spent supporting users within Microsoft 365, being able to use the resource else where to improve other services in the organisation is a plus!

PROS

Being able to get support throughout all the Microsoft 365 services because the tool follows you everywhere you go is a great idea! This tool has helped support staff in answering the burning questions they had about Microsoft and reduced the cost and time spent creating IT Support Tickets through the IT Support Portal.

CONS

I cannot fault VisualSP in any way, because every time I had a request to improve the tool for the Organisation, the VisualSP has always proposed a solution that resolves any situation I had, so kudos the Dev Team!

Excellent communication and adoption product.

The service we have received from the VSP team has been second to none. From our initial conversations with [SENSITIVE CONTENT] through to calls with [SENSITIVE CONTENT] and hand off to [SENSITIVE CONTENT], the interactions have been well prepared, professional, supportine and very enjoyable.

PROS

Set up of the product is straight forward. The service we receive is excellent, the performance of the product is good, there are no noticible delays in SP pages loading when using the tool. We've started to use custom help files recently, this is an additional bonus to the core product and one which we didn't fully realise the value of until recently.

CONS

We experiencved a few issues when running the wizard deployment tool and had to resort to powershell instead, but that was not a major issue.

Vendor Response

Hi Carl, thanks for the great review! The VisualSP application that loads in your browser is very small. It is also configured to load after everything else on the page has loaded so that it doesn't impact the user experience.

VisualSP Functional Review

PROS

Initial Integration with Dynamics is easy to install as it is simply a plug-in on the browser. Contextual and Onboarding-specific help items are great. It's also not intrusive to the Dynamics user experience.

CONS

Content creation interface options could be a little smaller, but I may just need to zoom out of my browser. Being able to pin the window and Help Items would be helpful so you don't have to keep closing out of the Help Item to complete a step.

Vendor Response

Hi Rob, thanks for your review. We're very excited about how well our product integrates with Dynamics. We have been able to overcome a hurdle that many other applications grapple with, and that is interacting with objects within an iFrame. With VisualSP, you are now able to attach inline help and walkthrough steps to elements within an iFrame, a HUGE win for our customers.

A perfect guide for on-cloud apps

Great companion to continue to learn new features and find right help as I need it!

PROS

I love how the guide remains hidden until I click on it and then provides me relevant learning materials as I continue to use the app. The content is organized really well with most relevant content on top and others easily found via search

CONS

I hope the VisualSP guide can have content for more apps that may not be generally used but that we utilize in our day to day tasks.

Vendor Response

Thanks for the great review! You highlighted something that all of our customers love, which is how our Help content is available in-context, meaning you only see the content that is relevent to where you are within your application. In-context help rocks!

Unique solution with great support

• Pleasant cooperation at any time • Open to develop the product further with ideas from the customer e.g. ShrePoint webpart • Very fast and great support even though we are not working in the same time zone • VisualSP is more than just a supplier, it is a partner

PROS

I like that the solution can be used in so many ways. Below you'll find some of my highlights: - Replace the Microsoft help icon (?) in the browser by our customized VisualSP help icon. - Available as an extention, inline help and webpart. Thus search options are available from "googling" down to the one right way to approach the issue - Create different types of help items (e.g. connect existing help item via URL, create your own content, ...) - Create help items in several languages which are connected to each other (same item ID). This makes life of an admin so much easier. - Copy the already created help item and assign it to a different app. I often face the challenge that a help item can be used in the SharePoint environment but also for Teams. The introduction of this function was game-changing!

CONS

Nothing to mention here. We are very glad that we chose VisualSP.

Reason for choosing VisualSP

Most of the requirements were covered by VisualSP.

Vendor Response

Hi Callista, thanks for the wonderful review! We're especially proud of how we are able to respond to, and oftentimes partner with, many of our customers when they have great suggestions for enhancing our application. We provide top-tier support no matter where you are in the world!

A great tool for educating users

For the price, Visual SP has A LOT of good features. It is easy to get ahold of the customer service, and work through issues or learn how to better use the app.

PROS

It is a great tool for looping people into SharePoint. Whether they're power users or beginners, they can benefit from Visual SP. It also prevents me (the sole SharePoint Admin) from having to repeatedly answer the same question/comment.

CONS

It is a little bit clunky. It took some poking around to get the banners/announcements to appear where I needed them. A bit of it was probably user inexperience.

Reason for choosing VisualSP

I did renew VisualSP, because I like it.

Vendor Response

Hi Stacey, thanks for your review! VisualSP provides the best benefit to your organization at the best price. We won't nickel and dime you to death like some of our competitors.
