Senior Account Executive Information Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Amazing tool for Sales!" March 20, 2026 5.0 I would recommend highly recommend Consensus. It's by far the best sales enablement tool I use. The screen recording tool works incredibly well, and the ability to have a library of demo videos to fall back on is well worth the investment Pros In sales, it's crucial that I can quickly respond to customer requests for product demos, but scheduling can sometimes get in the way of that happening. With Consensus, I'm able to send personalized, actionable content with just a few clicks. Cons I think it can sometimes be difficult to find the videos I'm looking for, but overall, I like the tool very much. Review Source MW Marissa W. Senior Account Executive Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Consensus for Meeting Prep & Follow Ups" October 29, 2025 4.0 It's been a huge help in the overall sales cycle. It helps my clients be better equipped to have meaningful conversations. I am able to send information that might not have been addressed or perhaps missed due to time constraints on calls. It also allows for easy sharing and can access stakeholders that are crucial for the sales process. Pros It saves a lot of time and helps quicken the sales process. I will use it to send overviews to prospects for meeting prep as well as follow up material. Cons The demo board feature can be a hassle, but it's needed to be able to track video analytics. Rather than a simple copy and paste or sending to multiple people from different organizations at once, you have to create a unique demo board for every video you send. Switched from [Vidyard](https://www.capterra.com/p/125653/Vidyard/) I'm not 100% sure; however, it seems like Vidyard wasn't as robust and didn't integrate well with our systems.

Account Executive Telecommunications Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Scaleable demo share & tracking " December 8, 2025 4.0 I use Consensus to create and share demo boards efficiently, saving my engineer and me time. It helps in early opportunity qualification, tracks client engagement, and allows personalized follow-ups. Pros I love how quick and easy it is to use Consensus. It seamlessly integrates with Salesforce, enhancing my workflow. I appreciate that I can track how much my clients are interacting with the content I share, which helps me identify what is most important to them and address their concerns effectively. The time savings for both my engineer and myself are significant, as it allows us to qualify or disqualify opportunities early on and send personalized follow-up emails efficiently. Furthermore, as an end user, I found the setup to be super easy since I simply logged in with SSO and was ready to go, which speaks volumes about its user-friendliness Cons Sometimes it takes too long or requires too many inputs to create a single experience demo board. I wish there was a feature to create preset boards that could be easily included in emails. Review Source Cory K. Account Executive Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Consensus Review from a Mid Market Sales Rep" March 27, 2026 5.0 Overall, it’s been a huge help in reducing the number of repetitive demos while still delivering a personalized, high-quality experience. Pros What I like most about Consensus is how incredibly user-friendly it is, both for myself and my customers. It makes it so easy to connect with prospects in a meaningful, on-demand way, without the back-and-forth of scheduling live demos. Consensus offers great, real-time insights into how customers are consuming my content, informing me on who to reach out to and when. Cons Nothing bad to say. The only challenge that I have, if any, is that my uploads are limited to a maximum of 2 hours, but I believe that is a company setting, not a consensus issue. Review Source James T. Solutions Engineer Accounting Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Happy Customer!" March 25, 2026 5.0 Overall it has been a positive addition to our pre-sales motion, helping us qualify interest and educate prospects before live discovery or demo sessions. It works best when the content library is well-maintained and mapped to specific buyer personas or use cases relevant to our target CFO and finance leader audience. Pros Consensus makes it easy to share tailored product demos which is a huge time-saver when prospects need to loop in additional stakeholders between discovery and formal demo stages. The engagement analytics showing who watched what and for how long give us genuinely useful signals to prioritise follow-up conversations. Cons The content management side can get messy quickly unless you build out a well-structured, maintained library. Review Source Matt M. Account Manager Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Demo Sharing System" February 17, 2026 5.0 Fantastic. Great product, good outlook integration, and way more advanced tools then I'll ever use. Keep it up! Pros Love that I know when a demo is watched or forwarded. Helps me timely calls and follow ups, and shows if a deal is still worth chasing. Cons I don't like the playback function for users. Kind of timeconsuming and changes a lot. With a tweak it would be fine Review Source Matthew T. Enterprise account executive Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great easy to send video content " February 6, 2026 5.0 Great love the service- very easy to use and begin inserting videos into emails. Could also introduce the video to add personalisation Pros Ease of use being able to add thumbnail videos straight into my emails to customers. Could track when a prospect has view the video. Cons Analytics could be a little more in depth and easy to use, platform for viewing feedback is not great visually Review Source AS Arti S. solutions engineer Law Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Consensus Review" April 24, 2026 5.0 Overall, a great tool and it is heavily utilized within our organization. Allows us to streamline content creation and ensure we nurture our leads. Pros •Enables AEs to easily record and reuse demo content •Reduces the number of live demos needed in the sales cycle •Allows for segment-specific content to better target the right teams and stakeholders Cons •Reporting functionality could be more robust •Discovery demo feature lacks the ability to link multiple videos to a single question Review Source DW Duncan W. Sales Executive Education Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Consensus - Saving me time and getting our product in front of customers" May 1, 2026 5.0 Our experience has been very positive. The platform is simple to use, and adds real value to the work we do both in terms of lead generation and following up with new leads. Pros The ability to get our product in front of potential customers. A short video demo allows us to demonstrate features and functionality that we can offer. Prospects can watch the video at a time that works for them and without pressure from a Sales Rep. It allows us to respond to new leads in a timely fashion and ensure our follow up is valuable. Cons The main menu can be confusing. I would prefer for it to be easier to see how to create demo boards, the feature I use the most. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Advisor Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "consensus review" March 20, 2026 4.0 Pros Easy to view and share demos. customers seem to enjoy the easy of which they can view videos and share Cons it would help if their were shareable items that weren't just videos, such as reading collateral etc. Review Source MS Mark S. Sales Engineering Manager - APAC Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Several Use Cases to effectively communicate with clients within pre-sales" November 5, 2025 5.0 Very positive - an integral part of our sales engineering function. The Account Managers are also very friendly and helpful. It is an easy to use platform and it allows us to share material easily and gage interest in quickly in what would other be a very manual and lengthy process. Pros Consensus really helps our pre-sales/sales engineering team share effortlessly with the wider (and large) sales organisation. We tend to use Consensus in three different ways: (1) pre-demo 'Netflix Trailer' so that everyone is coming to the meeting informed on what they will see (2) up-selling modules/solutions that may be of interest to clients but are at exploratory stage (saving internal time and resource) and (3) post-demo follow ups. It is slick and saves a lot of time as well as an effective knowledge sharing tool. Very popular with the sales organisation as they do not have to rely on pre-sales all of the time. Cons No dislikes - easy to use. Perhaps it could be easier to add in marketing visuals at the beginning of demonstrations, but this may be a lack of knowledge internally.

It’s streamlined how I engage with customers and has become one of the most effective tools I use. It fits naturally into my workflow, saves time, and helps me deliver clear, meaningful touchpoints at scale. I’ve seen a noticeable impact on how easily customers connect with our products, and it’s made it easier for me to support a large and diverse customer base more effectively. Pros Consensus has become a key part of my daily workflow. It gives me an easy way to share interactive demos that highlight the value of our solutions. As a Customer Success Manager, I use it both for upsell conversations and during times of change, like when there's new leadership and we want to rebuild product knowledge and show the full impact of what we offer. The learning curve is low, and the content management features make it simple to find and share the right resources quickly. It’s a tool that truly helps me bring more value to customers. Cons Since I’m sharing videos daily with a large number of customers, I end up getting multiple email notifications each day about viewers who haven’t watched yet. While that info is definitely helpful, working in a scaled Customer Success model means a weekly summary report would be much more efficient and easier to manage. Also, even though it only takes a couple of minutes to create a video, any time savings would be valuable given the volume of customers I support each day. Review Source LB Lily B. Sales Development Representative Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Time Saver and Value Added! " December 19, 2025 5.0 Overall, this tool has saved so much time and added value to the product I sell. The simplicity of adding Consensus to an email when demos are the number 1 request I get from customers. Pros What I appreciate most about Consensus is the time that it saves me. Instead of having to go through the trouble of setting up a call with my customers, nonetheless, find the time to do so, and then providing them a demo. Instead, I can send them Consensus and they can watch on their own timeline. Cons Sometimes my customers do not like resources coming from a different vendor. I simply can reassure them that it's only a platform we use to provide our demos! Review Source Connor B. account exexutive Telecommunications Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "pipeline gen" October 31, 2025 5.0 I have loved it, it took me 10 minutes to learn how to use it, and it has helped me generate a bunch of opps by sending over product intro videos. Pros As an AE, consensus helps with deal acceleration by allowing me to send over simple, short demos to customers with simple questions or simple product needs. Cons this is extremely user friendly as an AE and i cannot really think of anything that would make the current interface better. Review Source Drew A. Product Sales Executive Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Making Every Demo More Focused and Effective" November 27, 2025 5.0 My overall experience with Consensus has been very positive. It has become a reliable part of my sales workflow, especially for educating prospects early in the process. The demo boards give buyers a clear understanding of the software before we ever meet, which makes every live demo more focused and productive. I spend less time covering the basics and more time addressing the specific challenges and workflows that matter to each prospect. Pros It lets prospects get the basics on their own, so my demos start at a higher level and deals move quicker. Cons The only downside is that creating and maintaining the demos takes some initial effort. Outside of that, it’s easy to use. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Regional Sales Director Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great tool for sharing demos at scale" January 5, 2026 5.0 Overall, it has been a very good experience. It saves me time, helps educate prospects before our calls, and makes it easier to involve different stakeholders in the process. Once you get used to it, it becomes a strong support tool for sales conversations. Pros It is a very helpful way to share demos without needing to run everything live. I like that prospects can choose the parts that matter most to them, instead of watching a long generic demo. The insights are also useful, as I can see who has viewed the demo and what they focused on. This makes my follow up conversations more relevant and productive. Cons It takes a bit of time to learn how to set everything up properly. Some editing and formatting features could be more intuitive. Review Source Hannah T. Senior Solutions Specialist E-Learning Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Scale your prospects journey with consensus!" December 19, 2025 5.0 Pros One of the most valuable parts of consensus is design mapping the customization that prospects can experience in a demo. Our teams have been able to create seamless experiences aligned to our value messaging and customer journey with the customizations that Consensus offers. Cons There are some minor components that are being updated related to how users search for demos that has posed a challenge but there are workarounds for now and advancements to come. Review Source Alfie S. Account Manager Security and Investigations Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Consensus - speeding up of sales cycles!" October 30, 2025 5.0 Overall it's been a slick and easy to use tool. It allows me to send demos out to my customers and prospects, often speeding up the sales cycle and allows customers to come to meeting with an existing understanding of our product range. Pros How easy it is to integrate to your outlook account, and as a result, how fast their demo videos are to deploy to customers! Cons Honestly, nothing. It is perfect for it's intended use case. I needed something to deploy demos to my customers and prospects and it does exactly that. Review Source Michael C. Solution Consulting Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Improve prospect experience on their time" December 19, 2025 5.0 The company is proactive and the platform has assisted us in improving our prosepct and customer experience while reducing time. Pros It allows a forum to create reusable videos to utilize at different phases of the sales cycle. They continue to roll out new features and listen to ideas from users. Cons Nothing right now. The software has helped us. Its easy to log in and make videos. The support model gets us answers. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Account Executive E-Learning Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Love Consensus for Customer Engagement!" December 19, 2025 4.0 It has been great! Customers respond really well to the quick video demos, and some of them ask for additional resources through Consensus to share with their teams. Pros I love how quickly I can engage a customer with our demos. Sometimes, writing out long drawn out emails or finding the right links to share with customers who are interested in a new solution can be really disengaging. The quick, targeted, 2-3 minute videos has increased my response rate from prospective customers and customers alike. Cons Previewing a demo can be challenging. There are a few clicks you have to go through just to watch the demo you select when creating a demoboard. It would also be nice to have a "default" set up for when you embed the demo into your email to cut down on the clicks, as well. For example, I usually do not include the personal video at the beginning, and always choose the thumbnail option. If I could set this up as the automatic option each time, that would be great! Review Source Marco Pablo C. Director, Solution Engineering Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Consensus Made Demos Easier - and Now We Use It Everywhere" April 22, 2025 5.0 Consensus has had a noticeable impact on how we run things, especially in early-stage sales. It helps us qualify leads faster, and our presales team now spends more time on strategic work instead of repeating the same demo over and over. The onboarding and support we received were excellent, which definitely helped us get value from the tool early on. It’s become a key part of our sales motion. Pros What really stands out about Consensus is how much time it saves our team. We started using it for presales demos, but it quickly became useful in other areas, too. Creating interactive, self-guided demos is pretty straightforward, and the fact that we can track how people engage with them has completely changed the way we handle follow-ups. It’s a much more informed and efficient process now. Cons It took us a little while to get comfortable with the layout and the terminology. Words like “demoboard” or “demolytics” didn’t click right away, but once we got the hang of it, everything made sense. A few things could probably be more intuitive out of the box, but nothing major. Review Source BK Bryan K. Senior Demo Consultant Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Our team has enjoyed not only using the Consensus platform, but also collaborating with the Consensus support team." October 29, 2025 5.0 Our team has enjoyed both using the Consensus software, but also engaging with the Consensus support team. Pros Consensus has been instrumental in scaling our Solution Consulting practice. The platform not only makes it easy to share content, but also provides robust reporting and insights, allowing us to understand how our internal teams are leveraging the tool and how prospects are engaging with our content. Cons While Consensus is intuitive and easy to use from an end-user perspective, the admin side can be a bit more complex when it comes to identifying best practices. We’ve worked closely with our CSM to better understand the ideal structure and configuration, which has been extremely helpful in optimizing how we manage the platform. Review Source LW Luke W. Solution Consultant Warehousing Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Consensus elevates the entire sales process" November 20, 2025 5.0 The use of consensus has played a huge role in our growth over the last year. We leverage Consensus for all engagements, and our prospects love being able to watch digital content on their own time. It provides us with a platform to easily distribute the content our prospects requested more information on and allows us to continuously stay top of mind. Pros I enjoy the ease of use and the ability to stay Infront of our of our prospects in-between scheduled meetings. Cons Sometimes we like to send content via public links so there's no "front door" entry to watch the content. However, the analytics for public links are very limited. Review Source KC Kristina C. HCM Sales Representative Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Valueable for Features, Content Management, Content Sharing and Learning Experiences" November 4, 2025 5.0 Overall, extremely positive and gives a great custom experience without for prospects and customers to drive overviews and prerecorded demonstrations on their own time. Great value for money for both prospects, sellers and customers. Pros Content Sharing and Content Management and being able to select the type of experience and content that the prospects need. Cons The newly updated interface to put a demo board together- it is a bit confusing but still easy to navigate features and show the value of our system. Review Source AM Alan M. AE Telecommunications Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Easy to show demos" October 30, 2025 5.0 Daily use to quickly send a demo environment to customers. My Sales Engineer also doesnt have to be on every call now. Pros Easy to show demos that allows for easier workflow. I use it every day when a customer needs a quick turnaround. Cons Too extensive and that simply means that there is a lot that the platform has access to which doesnt allow me to fully utilize.
