Demand Metric

Demand Metric Is My Most Valuable Consulting Resource

Kommentare: Demand Metric has enabled me to expand my consulting services with the knowledge and tools that I have utilized. I give this resource my highest recommendation and a membership delivers incomparable value.

Vorteile:

As an executive Coach and business consultant, my clients have a diversity of marketing and sales development needs. With the resources and tools that are available to me on Demand Metric, I'm able to lead and guide my clients in developing strategies, plans, and programs that are customized to their wants and needs. Additionally, I'm able to continuously expand my knowledge and expertise with the wide variety of webinars and self-paced learning tools that are available to me on Demand Metric. It is my one stop resource for my marketing and sales consulting and coaching initiatives.

Nachteile:

It's hardly a complaint but there is so much content on the site that it can be a little bit overwhelming. However, the Demand Metric team has always been proactive and responsive to my requests for support.

Easy to use agile project management software for marketers

Kommentare: We've used many project and task management tools in our journey to adopt an "Agile" approach to our work but Demand Metric has been the only one that was super simple to use (and for our team to adopt with limited training), but had the capability to roll-up our tasks across all projects on the interfaces we need (board, calendar, list). Since we've started using Demand Metric my team feels much more in control of our department, things don't slip through the cracks, and we produce higher quality work, faster. Overall, I'd say that Demand Metric has been very supportive and available to help us, and their software with its integrated tools, templates, training, checklists and pre-built projects for marketing has had a tremendous impact on the productivity and effectiveness of our marketing team.

Vorteile:

I like how you can view and filter your tasks across all projects on each of the Kanban Board, Calendar, and Table view. I've used Trello, Jira, Asana, and Basecamp in the past, and I always had to bounce in and out of each project to see what what going on across my whole team; with Demand Metric, I can drill down to the key tasks I need to see in a couple of clicks, and it super easy to use. I also love that it was designed specifically for the needs of Marketers with pre-built project plans, checklist, and thousands of customizable, rebrandable Microsoft Office tools & templates, training courses and other resources that are embedded right into the software.

Nachteile:

I'd like to see an integration with Slack to add tasks directly into the app, and integration with Office 365 would help our team collaborate more online with the great tools and templates we use from Demand Metric's extensive library.

Software not updated

Kommentare: Good idea, but the lack of commitment to development and updating of the spreadsheets means they are better, more dependable solutions.

Vorteile:

Well-designed. Well thought out process and graph integration

Nachteile:

Anything that is time to limited or calendar based is pretty useless at this point. They don’t update their calendar to based tool kits and they are not editable, so they haven’t been usable since 2023. Had I known this I probably would not have purchased. Multiple emails over the last two months have been ignored.

Excellent product

Kommentare: I have had a good experience with both the products and the service with Demand Metric. We have used the prioritization tool to help us decide which projects we would take on for the year and which would need to wait. This was particularly helpful when we evaluated projects against our strategic plan. In addition, we have used resources for customer experience, product development, and strategic marketing, all of which guided our thinking in new ways or provided a useful tool even if we didn't use the entire framework.

Vorteile:

The most valuable thing for me in the Demand Metric library are the frameworks. In my job, I wear a lot of hats, and I often am charged to investigate and implement ideas or systems that are new to me. The step by step frameworks give me not only the big picture but break it down into steps that I can implement as I see fit. Because everything is customizable, I can pick and choose what works for my project and my company.

Nachteile:

While the templates are customizable, it's not always easy to change the branding colors, especially in the Excel documents. If I could live in a perfect world, this would be a Saas platform with a WYSIWYG editor and take it out of Excel all together.

review

Vorteile:

software is getting better. Ease of workflow and notifications between updates on projects is still a work in progress. We have been pleased with recent updates and changes in a short time to meet our needs and look forward to whats to come. Customer service has been incredibly responsive to support our requests or questions.

Nachteile:

its in development. Abilities to easily share and view recent updates without using email and have comments and updates if you're associated to the project on one screen box in real time would be key. Also overall views of projects...having more information on each project vs. just status and card title would be helpful. Monday.com offers some cool views and features in that way.

Demand Metric PM platform

Kommentare: I love the content - i think the pre-set project templates are great , i think you guys are on the right track.

Vorteile:

i like how you could see all tasks at once

Nachteile:

You have to set up your task properly of the all tasks boards becomes so over burdened its becomes useless - just too much stuff. I would have this board to show me all projects with maybe a dot or something to let me know about deliverables/task associated without listing the task. the notification were via email vs in the system. The main reason i want a PM system is to keep the conversations in the system and cut down on emails. This was the main reason we decided to go with Monday as we (like many companies) have far to many emails ) being eable to keep project related emails contained in the platform helps focus the communicatio and cut down on email clutter or worse missing an assigned task. Jira integration - without this there is not hope in getting out engineering team on this platform. I know it on your road map, but it really has to be there is both the product and dev team are going to be able to use this system.

Extensive collection of necessities

Kommentare: While I never have engaged customer service I've always loved my subscription. I've held a subscription for several years on and off with different companies. I would say it's a must buy for any project manager, operations manager, or marketing team.

Vorteile:

As a project manager, I've used Demand Metric for years. Often I'm tackling unique challenges on new projects and and work types that I'm not experienced with. DM's library of templates has been invaluable as I built out my document library and take on work that is new for me and my organization.

Nachteile:

The graphic design on some of the templates feels a bit outdated.

Extensive catalog of marketing resources

Kommentare: The training modules have helped me understand areas of marketing I'm less familiar with and apply structure to brainstorming and ideation that helps nonmarketers understand what we're trying to accomplish. When the breadth of the available resources becomes overwhelming, I reach out to the team and have a call or email reply within one business day.

Vorteile:

The sheer volume of training, tools, templates, resources and information makes Demand Metric an essential resource for marketers and communicators. The integration of all those resources with project management functionality puts Demand Metric ahead of most other vendors in the space, most of which provide either resources OR PM functionality, but not both. Customer service is excellent. If I need help finding a tool or applying a resource to my business, the team is highly responsive and helpful.

Nachteile:

The volume of information and the specificity of the tools can be a little overwhelming. It can be a bit like pulling a thread -- one resource leads you to needing to complete a different tool leads to needing training on another aspect. That said, customer success team is responsive, helpful and available to point users in the right direction and talk through specific business applications.

Fantastic Marketing and Sales Tool

Kommentare: Customer service is some of the best I've received anywhere. The Demand Metric team is quick to respond and knowledgable.

Vorteile:

Convenient way run marketing and sales projects Provides excellent team visibility Step-by-step approach keeps the team organized Saves an incredible amount of time Hundreds of asset templates - ready for use

Nachteile:

Occasionally, I have trouble opening assets in Safari, but no problem on other browsers. Likely the problem is on my end and it only occurs rarely.

Amazing Tool for Marketing Professionals

Vorteile:

Demand Metric makes it easy for marketing professionals to craft frameworks and strategies for their departments with pre-built templates, courses, and workflows. With Demand Metric I am able to save time on creating worksheets and presentations and instead focus on implementing strategies.

Nachteile:

I have not encountered any cons with the software so far.

A great resource for any marketing professional!

Kommentare: With the help of DemandMetric's resources, we were able to get a new marketing department up and running in a minimal amount of time. Not having to reinvent the wheel was so beneficial --- having to create similar tracking tools and templates from scratch would've been a huge burden for us.

Vorteile:

Having access to such a broad selection of resources provided our team with everything we needed to get our department up and running. The tools and templates were simple to use and easy to implement!

Nachteile:

Having access to a user community (perhaps with sub-groups of similar users) would be very helpful as a new organization trying to determine best use and implementation of many of the tools and other resources offered.

Great tool for the marketer, especially the solo marketer

Vorteile:

As the solo marketing person for the group the tool provided me quick access to training and material that I could use to present new initiatives to leadership, manage the initiatives, and then report back to management. Save lots of time not having to recreate the wheel.

Nachteile:

It was difficult to remember to go in and learn some more or sometimes as a novice in certain areas there was too much information to know where to start. But customer service was always helpful.

Tons of value

Kommentare: Very positive. Helpful in terms of my day to day responsibilities and good value for the dollar.

Vorteile:

The variety of templates is impressive, and there's good coverage across a wide variety of functional areas. Very rarely do I look for a template and not have success finding it.

Nachteile:

Some of the templates have not been refreshed for quick a while, in terms of both content and design. Would be great to have a cadence in place for maintaining the content on an annual basis.

Demand Metric Marketing

Kommentare: I like the team at Demand Metric. They are professional, courteous, and can point me in the right direction quickly.

Vorteile:

What I like best about the software is that there are plans with tactical steps that I can implement. There are videos that explain how to use the plans associated with the strategy that I want to implement.

Nachteile:

The dashboard to measure metrics is a little convoluted. I don't quite have a handle on measuring performance yet, which could be my issue as oppose to Demand Metrics.

Demand Metric Review

Kommentare: Quick access to relevant templates. Reduced time to create documents from scratch.

Vorteile:

Covers a good amount of relevant topics. Most of the themes that I'm looking for are available.

Nachteile:

I still need to customize the report so they are client ready. Visual quality can be improved.

Marketing Templates

Kommentare: Demand Metric's vault of marketing templates & resources alleviates the guess work of staring new projects and accelerates results.

Vorteile:

Access to established frameworks & templates for marketing projects.

Nachteile:

That I didn't discover the software sooner!

Easy to use

Vorteile:

Demand Metric is really easy to use. We love utilizing the templates for various marketing and project management tasks. We're looking forward to using some of the training courses soon!

Nachteile:

It can sometimes be difficult to fully customize some of the documents.

Review

Kommentare: Using to keep all materials of a project in one space.

Vorteile:

easy to use & upload. beings able to house all materials in one spot

Nachteile:

Would like more sub sections for each section when uploading materials for each project.

It is a good management software, but a lot more!

Kommentare: I have used their templates in many of my proposals and presentations and I think that really is their USP.

Vorteile:

The best thing about the software is the templates, blogs, and content that it provides to help users make the most of the software. I have used their templates in many of my proposals and presentations and I think that really is their USP.

Nachteile:

The interface, dashboard, colors, etc. are a little dull and I find my team and myself rushing through it as we get bored quickly.

Great training resources and budget templates

Kommentare: The account reps are the best. They are super friendly and knowledgeable. The website and search functionality is middle of the road.

Vorteile:

The budget templates are useful and easy to use. I have saved a lot of time by not having to create them from scratch.

Nachteile:

The search functionality can take you down a rabbit's hole.

Focused Direction

Vorteile:

Aside from saving time, it focuses your action and provides a clear direction in which to proceed.

Nachteile:

Finding everything that is available can be challenging. There is just so much information and can be a challenge to know where to start and what rabbit hole to follow.

Shortcut to awesome marketing results

Vorteile:

The templates are well done and intuitive. A must-have for any marketing team looking to offer a holistic approach to marketing output.

Nachteile:

just being able to find/choose the best template to use for a given task. so many available can make it challenging to arrive at just one.

Simplify your life

Vorteile:

Everything! Demand Metric makes it easy to get stuff done. No more digging around to figure things out, just use their solution and move on to the business at hand.

Nachteile:

Not much, some sifting through various material to get your bearings initially, but easy enough and a quick uptake on the whole.
