"From the start, Crayon’s flexibility and support have been critical for establishing a strong CI foundation customized to our needs."
“While it’s still early days for incorporating AI into our CI workflows, tracking our competitor’s AI moves — such as new messaging and product releases — became a top priority this past year. As AI continues to dominate the dialogue, CI leaders will be expected to stay ahead of the new AI developments but also understand and be able to advise on their implications and potential pitfalls.”
“What stood out about Crayon was the ease of information access and filtering. Our competitive landscape is diverse, so in getting our competitive intel, one of the most important things is to be able to search for exactly the information we need."
“As we formalized our program centrally, we picked up a lot of the existing programs -- battlecards, sales collateral, sales plays -- and started plugging into them, and putting measure to them in ways we hadn’t been able to before.”
"Before Crayon, we were finding that our competitor information was constantly out of date, and we needed a way to stay up to date with industry changes, in real time. We also needed a process for successfully sharing intel across the whole organization."
"Our competitive win rates have increased as much as 59% since rolling out Crayon Battlecards."
“AI is incredibly promising and can be helpful today for content summarization, but is still a long way from credibly conducting win/loss interviews by itself. Until it has feelings — not just the ability to sense them in others, but to experience them itself — it will lack the dignity that I believe is essential to a meaningful human connection.”
“Crayon saves me 20% of my time - a full day every single week - by surfacing competitive insights so that I don’t have to go digging for them. I can stay on top of my competitors and focus on helping the business grow.”
“I’ve found that Crayon is the best fit for us as we build our CI program and scale up. Without Crayon, we would be manually spending time making updates to competitive assets as opposed to doing strategic competitive intelligence work. Inefficiency is a revenue killer.”
“The tools we were using didn't have the breadth of intel we needed to understand what our competitors were doing, and the intel wasn't getting surfaced fast enough. We were missing opportunities to get ahead of our competitors and consuming precious resources chasing down intel."
"We really wanted a tool to collect and aggregate timely insights and make them easily accessible and usable, that's what Crayon was able to provide for us."
"Battlecards help us keep information consistent and up-to-date and helps us eliminate the need to chase down old decks. There's a real feedback loop. Our Sales team is leaving comments based on their own field knowledge — it's creating positive conversations."
“We have a fast growing sales team of hundreds of reps. With that much growth, competitive intelligence needs to be as easy as possible for reps to consume — we’re talking a few minutes tops. Crayon has been the ideal solution to meet that need.”
“After using Crayon, we’ve been really impressed with the insights we get daily on our competitors. The insights functionality is more advanced than what we had with our previous CI vendor.”
"Crayon helps us scan our highly competitive, ever-changing category and stay on top of news and insights that matter."
