To be living proof you can win in business while being human first.

Our Purpose nests well in the overall Purpose of the Customer Success Movement—the Movement that we serve at Gainsight. Customer Success is fundamentally about realizing that your customer is not a transaction or a deal or an opportunity or a lead. Your customer is a bunch of human beings just like you. And just like you, they want to succeed with what they do.

In a way, Customer Success, and Gainsight, are about bringing humanity back into this technology-driven world.

SaaS Companies Are Doubling-Down on Product-led Growth

58% of companies surveyed by Gainsight for its 2022 PLG Index already have a product-led growth strategy in place, and 47% plan to double their investment. San Francisco, California (May 17th, 2022) Gainsight has published its 2022 Product-Led Growth Index, a comprehensive report detailing the current status, defining metrics, and tools used by SaaS-based subscription businesses pursuing product-led growth (PLG). Along with RevOps Squared, a benchmarking research firm, Gainsight surveyed over 600 companies of various sizes, with varying annual contract values and across multiple industries. The report can be downloaded here.  PLG is a go-to-market strategy that transforms the way products are designed and delivered. This strategy puts the product at the forefront of the customer journey to drive acquisition, conversion, adoption, retention, and expansion. PLG achieves these objectives by leveraging product usage data to deliver immersive product experiences at scale. Subscription-based SaaS businesses, which need to align their products to their customers’ needs at every stage of the customer journey, are a natural candidate for PLG strategies.  While a relatively nascent concept, SaaS businesses clearly are gravitating to PLG, as evidenced by the Gainsight report. For example, a PLG motion already exists in 58% of surveyed companies. Meanwhile, 91% […]

If you're like us, the businesses you return to over and over do two things every time:

That's how our economy was built. Your local store owner helped you find exactly what you needed. Your travel agent knew the perfect trip for you. And once upon a time, your blacksmith knew how to fit your horse’s foot just right. And all with a heavy portion of innovation and creativity.

But with the pace of change that digital technology has brought to these ancient relationships, we've lost something. We've added more and more layers of separation between businesses and consumers—automated checkouts, self-serve websites, one-to-many communication, and now we even have chatbots. How do we maintain and advance the convenience and scalability that technology delivers while building back up those deep, long-lasting relationships between buyer and seller?

Gainsight exists to help businesses secure and surpass their customers' desired outcomes and deliver consistently amazing experiences. We do that by orchestrating all of companies' customer-facing teams and data together into simple, actionable dashboards and playbooks. Our powerful software platform and evidence-based best practices give you the power to gain insight from customer data so you can take the right actions at the right time to maximize your customer relationships.

Nick Mehta (he/him)

Can you combine a passion for family, football, philosophy, physics, fashion and feminism with an obsession with SaaS customer success? Probably not, but Nick Mehta has made it his life’s mission to try.

Nick is CEO of Gainsight, the Customer Success company that helps businesses improve customer retention, accelerate expansion and capitalize on customer advocacy. He works with a team of nearly 700 (affectionately nicknamed) “Gainsters.” Together, they've created the customer success category that's currently taking over the SaaS business model worldwide. Under Nick's leadership, Gainsight has built an award-winning company culture that is frequently recognized in numerous lists as a “Great Place to Work,” including Inc., Fortune, Glassdoor, Silicon Valley Business Journal, and more.

At the beginning of his career, Nick and some college classmates started online golf retailer Chipshot.com during the “dotcom” era. After that, Nick joined VERITAS Software as a Product Manager and over time became a VP and GM of a division of the company, which then became part of Symantec. Nick’s first CEO role was running the Summit-backed SaaS company, LiveOffice, which grew substantially and eventually sold to Symantec.

Nick has been named one of the Top SaaS CEOs by the Software report three years in a row, one of the Top CEOs of 2018 by Comparably, was a finalist for EY’s Entrepreneur of the Year, and holds one of highest Glassdoor approval ratings for CEOs. On top of all that, he was recently rated the #1 CEO in the world (the award committee was just his mom, but the details are irrelevant).

Nick is the co-author of “Customer Success: How Innovative Companies Are Reducing Churn and Growing Recurring Revenue,” the authoritative book on the field. He’s also an avid reader and is always excited to geek out about the measurement problem in quantum mechanics, the hard problem of consciousness and whether time really exists.

Jeff Depa is Chief Revenue Officer at Gainsight where he leads the company's day to day field operations driving outcomes for Gainsight customers. Jeff has more than two decades of leadership experience across sales, marketing, consulting, and systems engineering at companies including Sun Microsystems, Oracle and Datastax, where he he built, scaled and lead customer-focused, high performance enterprise teams that drove profitable hyper-growth across SaaS and software businesses.

Outside of his passion for driving outcomes in his clients' businesses, Jeff is an avid pilot, do-it-yourselfer and enjoys spending time with his family and on his tractor in Austin, TX.
