A Well-structured platform for your online communities, with lots of potential for growth.
What do you like best about the product?
inSided is an overall reliable platform that can provide a well-structured forum.
It is easy to use and intuitive for our end users.
The content is easily findable for members. We know that because there are hundreds of old threads that have a lot of views - even months after a thread has been solved, the comments yield a lot of knowledge.
It can be integrated with Zapier to extend on the features and build workflows - this gives us (almost) endless possibilities.
"Third Party Scripts" can unlock new features and customizations.
Our CSM is friendly and puts a lot of effort into fulfilling our demands.
I really like the flexibility that it gives us: content can be moved around and their title can be edited at any time. While the URL changes, the old URLs will always redirect the user to the right place.
The Homepage is quite personalizable and a lot of elements can be tailored to your needs.
Some of our feedback is being listened to - a few of the suggestions that I shared were actually implemented in the next year. I have attended a handful discovery calls and product interviews, and those have always been a positive experience.

What do you dislike about the product?
Like every software, there are some shortcomings:
The Event Area is very limited in functionalities and a Notification Center is missing completely. However, I believe that improvements on this end are already underway.
The Ideation Area is missing some core features that are present in other modules (e.g. displaying ranks, and the ability for end users to edit their comments).
What is also missing: bulk actions for posts (e.g. it is not possible to bulk-move multiple threads into a new subcategory). It is also not possible to change certain fields of user profiles in bulk.
For a small community with a handful thousand members, moderation is manageable. However, we would really wish to have a better and more scalable way to manage our moderation processes in the backend.
Customization is lacking, especially in the "Activity Stream" (the "news feed" of the home page) - users can sort by "newest" but not e.g. by trending, most popular, most views, etc.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
inSided helps us centralize all the most important customer communications in one place - the benefits of community are enormous.
The most valuable aspect is having a well-structured database of questions and answers, all submitted by users, so other users can solve their problems with one click. This saves time on both ends - our customers and our support agents.

Love using inSided
What do you like best about the product?
I really enjoy having all our questions in one area for our product. Our users have a voice when using our product. I apprecite the back end of the controls to look at everyone's profiles, badges and gamifications.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am looking forward to seeing some of the ideas become apart of what we, as users, can do with our platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is giving our consumers a voice in our product and it is wonderful to see our users engaged with the product to give us the use cases. Additionally they teach us something new each day too!
Good but could be more robust
What do you like best about the product?
I don't personally have many platforms to compare it to but I like that I am able to complete most of the standard tasks such as posting, answering questions, creating events, badges, points etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
It covers the basics but it could be more robust and include other features such as marketing and newsletters. There are some features that feel limiting and don't have the best user experience/logic such as building ranks, users subscribing to the events page to name a few experiences I've had.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is helping our users have another resource to learn about our product better and have more opportunities to ask questions. This alleviates our support queues, improves product and feature adoption and lets people stay up to date on updates and events.
A community to impress your customers
What do you like best about the product?
The community looks sleek and user-friendly. I can really tell when a company is using a best-in-class community vs the more dated versions.
Customers can understand how to use it right away and it has all the levers you'd imagine to run a successful community (gamification, product requests, knowledge management, etc.)

What do you dislike about the product?
Overall, the customers are very happy with it so not much to dislike. If I had to pick something, I would like the product to come with more out-of-the-box assets. For example badges, awards to be given, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Bringing all our users togethet to share and learn from one another.
Maintain people up to date with our documentation and latest releases.
Learn from our users on what they would like to see next and delight them.

A great community platform host!
What do you like best about the product?
I love the customization abilities on the platform and the endless integrations that allow us to gain quick visibility on what is going on in the community via a variety of channels and tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were slightly more analytics capabilities when it comes to the InSided backend to better gage the engagement of our clients on the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is enabling our clients to gather on one platform in order to better understand our product, network with each other and find all of our content and upcoming events.
Very good User Management; room for Improvement for Events
What do you like best about the product?
Best: Engagement and Badges; easy to setup posts
What do you dislike about the product?
Event Platform: not many items to change and less gadgets to work with
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Customer Engagement, User Management, Self Serv
A great platform to stay in touch with your customers.
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use and doesn't add much overhead with other tools in our stack to stay in touch. Really happy with it.
What do you dislike about the product?
The product is reliable. I think a bit more advanced search functionality would be useful and deeper integration with Salesforce or Slack. But beyond that it's pretty solid.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Staying close to our customers, capturing ideas and potential for improvements in process or product.
Community content hub
What do you like best about the product?
The Community is structured like a content library. It looks beautiful and creates various spaces for engagement.
What do you dislike about the product?
The search functionality can be tricky, especially if you have an older Community, unearthing content from 10 years ago that's not always relevant.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Customer engagement
- Knowledge management
- Product releases and updates

Insided has an excellent online community platform to help accomplish your goals!
What do you like best about the product?
The Gainsight Digital Hub online community allows you to connect with other community managers and receive many tips and guidelines on implementing initiatives to help accomplish your community goals.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes I dont receive notifications or updates when there are new events and I want to make sure I hear about all of them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Any questions or problems that I have, I head to the community to look for an answer in the knowledge base. So the community helps guide me to accomplish the tasks I'm set out to do.
A very rounded platform for community
What do you like best about the product?
I was the one who chose Insided for our community. A year later, still happy with the choice. It provides all the features we need
What do you dislike about the product?
Pace of development is slow. There are some feature requests on their own community that have been there for a long time. They aren't major just good quality of life for users & admins
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
the community is our first line of support, allowing us to document as we support our user's issues.
We also host our documentation there, so it contains everything about our product
