The Consensus alternative

Consensus vs. Demostack

Consensus video software is a great tool to free up your sales engineers from being in unqualified demos. But only Demostack helps you win your qualified live technical demo calls.

TechCrunch Comparison

Consensus and Demostack frequently draw comparisons, creating an impression of similarity. After all, we are both recognized as demo automation platforms and listed as top presales software. We may share a similar target audience, but our tech is so different, and we serve such different purposes that we recommend both platforms depending on the use cases.

So what’s the difference?

While both Consensus and Demostack are leaders in demo automation and presales software, they cater to distinct needs within the sales process. Consensus emphasizes video demos for pre and post-sales calls, focusing on user-chosen content through treemap logic. Demostack, on the other hand, specializes in live technical demos, enabling presales teams to create and manage custom, scalable templates, offering autonomy in maintaining a reliable demo environment without relying on R&D resources.

Consensus: Automated Video Demos

Consensus's presales demo automation platform streamlines your team's workflow. Prospects can self-qualify by watching targeted videos, reducing unnecessary interactions. The platform's analytics give insights into prospect interests. The addition of product tours further empowers prospects in their decision-making journey.

Demostack: Live Demo Excellence

Demostack streamlines presales operations, enhancing teams' ability to succeed in live technical demos and halving POC time. This unified platform enables independent sales demos and allows presales to build, edit, and scale custom demos and tours effortlessly. Its flexibility extends to editing within both the Demostack environment and the production environment for optimal performance.

  7. “I was sold on Demostack within the first 20 minutes of walking through it just knowing all the pain points I’ve had over the years of standing up a demo environment. You’re constantly having to chase down other teams to keep it updated with fresh data and content, and the maintenance becomes just as time consuming as setting it up in the first place. I haven’t seen any other tools that come close to the value that Demostack provides.
