40 Crayon Testimonials

“Crayon has been hugely helpful with conducting competitive research during an opportunity. It allows us to act quickly since we aren’t wasting time searching for this information and rapidly adjusting account strategy for the competitive landscape.”

“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.”

“Most battlecard updates are a no-brainer. Of course you make updates when competitors release big announcements and/or your launch a new capability that changes your competitive positioning. Prioritizing when your incorporate other insights can be more challenging considering competitive intel volume. I update Tier One battlecards quarterly and use field intel themes, win/loss findings, and recent wins and displacements to determine what gets added, edited, or even removed from battlecard content.”

"This academy is super timely. So many resources talk about what CI pros should be doing — but too few focus on how to do it. There’s a big difference, especially in a developing niche that needs some level of activation expertise to uncover value. Crayon has done a good job with this."

"It's addicting. I have six tabs permanently open in my browser, and Crayon is one of them."

"Everyone stays informed, even when there are constant shifts in our landscape."

“​​The feedback we get from new hires that have used other CI vendors is that Crayon is a more modern day, easy to adopt tool than what they’ve come from, and that it's a huge upgrade from what they’ve used in the past.”

"It used to take sales many hours to find competitive intel and get the information we needed, but now with Crayon and our compete program, we have all the relevant intel at our fingertips to move opportunities forward and win more competitive deals."

"When it was time to procure CI software at Alteryx, I immediately reached out to Crayon. I looked at others, like Klue. But at the end of the day, scalability was a big factor while making this decision. Crayon lets us scale to thousands of go-to-market colleagues we want to support with CI. To create a company-wide culture of CI, having access and driving adoption is critical."

“Onboarding to Crayon is so simple and intuitive, it’s easy to find the intel you need and to submit new intel. I would recommend this tool to anyone. Crayon is always the first place I check whenever a customer brings up a competitor, regardless of whether I’m familiar with them already or not.”

"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.”

“In a competitive market, it’s crucial to be nimble and agile. You can lose credibility based on inaccurate competitor information and it’s impossible to collect complete and timely intelligence without Crayon. Crayon captures every move our competitors make and prioritizes what we should know, so that we can act on it and make our team successful.”

“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."
