CS leaders choose RetainSure because they needed one product, not a merger to navigate.

I just love RetainSure's predictions. Accurate predictions and concise, actionable explanations of churn risk and upsell saving my team and me 2+ hours daily. I love that it reflects all the right reasons that accounts are at risk without us handcrafting a health score.

Upsell is a key motion for our CS team, especially with our self-serve customers, but doing it at scale was always a challenge. RetainSure's upsell predictions changed that. It helped us zero in on high-potential accounts and even gave us personalized email drafts. We saw a 20x ROI from just the first month of using it.

FAQ

RetainSure vs. Totango: common questions

Mergers in B2B SaaS create a specific kind of risk for buyers: roadmap uncertainty, integration timelines, and support complexity across two formerly separate products. Totango, Catalyst, and Unison are still largely separate product lines. If you're evaluating tooling for the next 2 to 3 years, that uncertainty is worth factoring in. RetainSure is a single product with a single roadmap built around one problem, helping CS teams predict and prevent churn.
Totango's enterprise-grade hierarchy and health scoring is genuinely strong for large, complex CS organisations. RetainSure is optimised for B2B SaaS teams growing fast, typically 2 to 50 CSMs managing a mix of SMB and mid-market accounts. If you need enterprise account hierarchy management across thousands of accounts, Totango's architecture handles that better. If you need to be live and getting signals this quarter, RetainSure is built for you.
Unison is Totango's ML churn prediction engine, acquired from Parative AI in 2024. It is sold as a separate product with separate pricing, not included in the base Totango platform. If you want ML-based churn prediction from Totango, you're buying two products. RetainSure's churn prediction is built in from day one. No add-on required.
Totango's health scoring is configurable and has been refined over years of enterprise use. It requires setup and ongoing calibration. RetainSure's model builds churn signals from your actual product usage, CRM, and support data without manual configuration. The practical difference: RetainSure surfaces risk from day one, not after a calibration phase.
RetainSure onboards in 2 weeks. Totango's full platform implementation, covering integrations, health score configuration, Unison AI setup, runs 3 to 6 months for most organisations. Individual SuccessBLOCs can activate faster, but that's partial deployment. If you need the full platform running before your next QBR cycle, RetainSure's timeline is the practical choice.
