Gainsight integrates its AI-Powered customer success platform to SAP Sales Cloud; Companies to launch joint programs worldwide
Gainsight, the world’s leading customer success platform, announced a strategic partnership with SAP, delivering a powerful integration between Gainsight CS and SAP Sales Cloud. The integration will help businesses transform how they deliver value-driven customer experiences at scale to maximize customer retention and revenue growth. Gainsight CEO Nick Mehta and President and COO Chuck Ganapathi, along with SAP’s Senior Vice President, SAP CX Solution Management, Nitin Badjatia, will discuss the partnership during SAP’s CX Live Event happening today.
The handoff between pre- and post-sales remains a persistent challenge in driving long-term customer success across industries. This partnership bridges this gap, unifying and orchestrating the customer journey by bringing together a collaborative effort across teams—sales, account managers, renewal managers, customer success managers, professional services, and support—who typically work in siloed systems.
