Why Sales Teams Switch from Showpad

PE Acquisition Uncertainty

Vector Capital’s acquisition of Showpad has created market uncertainty. Product roadmap changes, leadership turnover, and shifting priorities are causing teams to look for more stable alternatives.

Complex Implementation & Admin Overhead

Showpad requires dedicated administrators to manage content libraries, configure workflows, and maintain the platform. That’s headcount you could invest in another closer.

Enterprise-Only Pricing

Showpad doesn’t publish pricing — it’s enterprise-only, typically $35–75/user/month. If you’re a growing team, you’re paying enterprise rates for features that don’t match your workflow.

No Call Recording or AI Follow-ups

Showpad manages existing content but can’t record your calls, generate summaries, or auto-create personalized follow-ups. You still need separate tools for the post-call workflow.

Heavy Content Management, Light on Selling

Showpad is built for enablement teams who organize content — not for sellers who close deals. Reps want fast follow-ups, not another content library to navigate.

Key Differences

Content Generation vs. Content Management

Distribute

AI records every call and automatically generates branded follow-ups, deal rooms, and summaries. New content is created for every deal without manual effort.

Competitor

Organizes and distributes existing sales content. Reps search a library to find the right asset. No content is generated from calls.

Your reps stop searching for content and start sending AI-generated follow-ups within minutes of every call.

Platform Stability

Distribute

Independently funded and product-focused. Roadmap driven by customer needs, not private equity return targets.

Competitor

Recently acquired by Vector Capital. Product direction, team stability, and long-term investment are uncertain as PE ownership takes hold.

You invest in a platform with a clear, customer-driven roadmap instead of worrying about the next round of cost-cutting.

Operational Overhead

Distribute

Self-serve platform. No dedicated admin required. Reps manage their own deal rooms and follow-ups independently.

Competitor

Requires dedicated enablement staff for content management, platform administration, taxonomy maintenance, and ongoing training.

Eliminate an entire layer of operational overhead and redirect that budget toward revenue-generating roles.

Time to Productivity

Distribute

Reps are productive on day one. Record a call, get a follow-up, share a deal room. No onboarding program needed.

Competitor

Weeks of training for reps, months of setup for admins. Full utilization can take a quarter or more.

Start generating ROI immediately instead of spending months on implementation and training cycles.
