Seismic vs. Highspot vs. Showpad vs. Bigtincan compared

In this article, we’ll review four of the top sales enablement tools: Bigtincan, Seismic, Showpad, and Highspot. Direct comparisons for these tools are scarce, so we’d like to share insights our organization has learned from more than a decade competing in the space. 

Every platform claims to solve a similar set of problems:

• Scattered content
• Inconsistent messaging
• Poor seller training
• Ineffective analytics 

But beneath the surface, these tools take fundamentally different approaches to solving those problems — and those differences matter.

In this guide, we break down what top sales enablement platforms offer in 2025, where they shine, and where they fall short. And we’ll show you why, for organizations who want to reimagine the buying experience, Bigtincan is the right choice. We’ll deep dive into each tool, starting with an overview of Bigtincan.

Note: The best way to learn more about Bigtincan and get specific questions answered is to book a demo.

Bigtincan was designed to simplify sales enablement and support the entire GTM team

Bigtincan was built to support amazing buying experiences and bridge the gap between sellers — who need sales assets and information at their fingertips without spending excessive time searching for or managing files — and organizations with complex selling cycles or internal processes requiring constant management. 

This is reflected in Bigtincan's diverse clients, which include 8 of the Fortune 10 and range from retail companies such as AT&T to biotechnology product development companies such as Thermo Fisher Scientific. Retail and biotechnology sellers have different needs, and their Bigtincan interfaces and features reflect that.

Regardless of industry, all Bigtincan customers get access to a set of core features, including: 

• Bigtincan Content: An intelligent enablement platform with a mobile-first design, robust offline functionality, and integrations with almost any repository or CRM.
• Bigtincan Readiness: A mobile-first sales learning suite that supports the latest training techniques, such as microlearning, AI coaching, just-in-time learning, gamification, and video coaching.
• Bigtincan Engagement: A digital selling suite that empowers reps to deliver personalized, trackable buyer experiences across email, meetings, and Digital Sales Rooms. With built-in AI like MeetingsAI and powerful engagement analytics, it helps teams share the right content, measure impact, and accelerate deal cycles.
• GenieAI: An intelligent AI layer built into the platform with individual capabilities, including Genie Assistant, RolePlayAI, CoachingAI, SearchAI, AuthoringAI, and MeetingsAI.
• Other advanced functionality: Including dedicated tools for document automation, interactive buyer experiences, sales engagement, and more.

In a nutshell, here’s what sets Bigtincan apart from other sales enablement solutions:

• Bigtincan works with common file repositories like Google Drive, Microsoft Sharepoint, Dropbox, Box, etc. That means your entire organization doesn't have to migrate files or change the behaviors of content creators already used to publish to those locations. You get all the benefits of finding, organizing, sharing, and managing files across your platforms through Bigtincan.
• Finding, sharing, and managing files is incredibly fast and robust for employees (like sales reps). With Bigtincan, you don't just search filenames as most content management systems do. We search the full text of files. Search results and content suggestions are also personalized for each employee, so sales reps see files most likely to be useful to them, while marketing or product teams may see something else for the same search queries.
• While many platforms have a “one size fits all” approach, meaning the user interface is fixed and not customizable (or difficult to customize), we create user interfaces that can be easily custom-tailored for each business, group of users, or individual users themselves. Our app structure is customizable to the needs and capabilities of your business, such as reporting. For example, delivering a branded user experience in a learning management system to retail associates is one example of many.
• Our native mobile sales enablement app works offline and online, solving connectivity pain points often faced by sales reps on the go and other field professionals.
• Most file management platforms don't work well with slow networks or devices. Still, Bigtincan's innovative approach to bandwidth management and loading large files allows for modern, high-resolution training presentations on low-bandwidth connections. This is hugely beneficial for employee training at large companies.
• To help you reap the value of our powerful sales enablement software, we offer a truly personalized experience built through a shared understanding of goals and expectations. This experience is visible throughout a customer's experience, from the first demo through onboarding and through the support provided by a highly trained and passionate Customer Care organization.

Below, we'll dive deeper into how Bigtincan works and how that looks with real-world use cases.

Enterprise file management: Find files faster and more accurately with industry-leading search and AI-based content suggestions

At Bigtincan, we commonly see companies putting thousands or tens of thousands of pieces of training content on cloud services like Microsoft Sharepoint or Google Drive for their customer-facing teams (here’s our article on using Sharepoint for document management).

This causes massive headaches because searching through a “folder in a folder” file structure across tens of thousands of files is near impossible. The majority of cloud-based, file sharing platforms are simply not optimized for large-scale file management.

Here’s how our enterprise file management solution is different and better:

• Full-text search (not just searching filenames) and rich file tagging (allowing you to organize files in a way that suits your business best) with the ability to suggest different content based on who is searching (sales rep vs. marketing manager) means employees across an organization can find the exact files they need more accurately and faster.
• Bigtincan features, including full-text search, run offline, so employees can still find, open, and edit files without a connection. This is critical for sales teams.
• A powerful "bookmark stack" feature allows users to share large groups of files (including in different folders) easily without moving files into different folders. For example, suppose a sales rep always uses the same four files for presentations. In that case, and those four files live in different folders (or even different repositories, i.e., Sharepoint and Google Drive), she can easily create a bookmark stack and access it from her dashboard in Bigtincan without moving files between different folders.
• Access to restricted content can be granted or denied based on permission level and group membership, which is more efficient and secure than granting permission individually.

Content repository: No need to switch between different drives anymore

Importantly, you can get these benefits of finding, sharing, and managing thousands or tens of thousands of files across one or more repositories without moving your organization off of Microsoft Sharepoint, Google Drive, or any other repository you're using.

Bigtincan simply runs on top of them, synching and searching files stored in Sharepoint, Drive, Box, or wherever you're storing files. You still get all of our full-text searches, offline, and mobile capabilities through Bigtincan without migrating files or having content creators change their habits or learn new software.

In fact, different teams inside the organization can even keep using multiple different content repositories. So, if the product team is using Dropbox and Marketing is using Sharepoint, Bigtincan will let employees find files that are "housed" in either repository (and get full-text search, offline, and mobile features with all of those files).

Our cloud connection content solution also works with specialized content management systems like Veeva Vault and Adobe Experience Manager, preserving and integrating rich taxonomies, which is a vital consideration for businesses in the life sciences and tech industries.

GenieAI: Achieve more with intelligent AI assistance for your entire revenue team

The GenieAI suite leverages cutting-edge AI to boost productivity, personalize experiences, and streamline workflows for sales, marketing, and customer success teams. Sales reps save an average of 2 hours each day using these AI-powered tools, allowing them to focus on what matters most — building meaningful customer relationships.

For sales teams, GenieAI eliminates repetitive tasks and accelerates the sales cycle:

• Instantly draft professional, personalized emails based on your company's products and messaging
• Get immediate answers to prospect challenges, competitive intelligence, or sales methodology questions
• Practice real-world sales scenarios with RolePlayAI to build confidence and master objection handling

For marketing teams, GenieAI transforms content creation and distribution:

• Jumpstart copywriting and playbook creation with AI-generated drafts and content suggestions
• Outline and enhance training materials with AI assistance
• Use AuthoringAI to generate voiceovers in multiple languages, cutting translation time from months to days

For enablement teams, GenieAI scales authoring and correlates enablement activities to revenue:

• Use CRM Scorecards to connect coaching activities with pipeline and other sales performance metrics
• Easily update, translate, and narrate training content using an AI voice or your own
• Create, scale, and track coaching and roleplay activities with AI personas and feedback to increase adoption of training modules

For customer success teams, GenieAI increases efficiency and customer satisfaction:

• Quickly find answers to product questions with advanced semantic search
• Summarize customer interactions and extract key action items from meeting recordings
• Provide contextual responses with the option to limit knowledge scope to specific files or channels

RolePlayAI: Master sales conversations through realistic AI-powered practice scenarios

Give your reps the ability to practice real-time text and audio conversations with AI that accurately emulates buying scenarios. Unlike traditional role-playing exercises constrained by manager time and subjective feedback, RolePlayAI offers:

• Easy setup with dropdowns to select personas, competitors, objectives, and difficulty levels
• Realistic AI simulations that take on accurate buyer personas and concerns
• Ever-changing dialogues that make sellers think on their feet, just like in real sales conversations
• Comprehensive review options that provide actionable feedback for improvement

Reps who regularly practice with RolePlayAI show 4x faster completion rates and 40% more confidence in their abilities than those using traditional training methods. This translates directly to better sales performance, as prospects are 13 times more likely to buy from a confident-sounding rep.

MeetingsAI: Get increased visibility into customer conversations

MeetingsAI gives managers and leaders the insights they need to verify rep performance and improve coaching efforts:

• Access a real-time dashboard of all calls hosted in Teams or Zoom
• Join meetings in progress to provide support when needed
• Identify coaching needs with AI-generated summaries and Conversation Intelligence
• Review auto-logged meetings in your CRM to understand buyer engagement

MeetingsAI streamlines follow-up activities for sales reps, like saving time with AI-generated summaries, coaching with an AI-powered coach and getting detailed feedback, and auto-logging meeting notes into your CRM without lifting a finger.

Studies show that when managers can monitor their team's performance, they can step in to improve rep effectiveness and save deals, directly contributing to increased revenue and customer satisfaction.

Digital Sales Rooms: Deliver engaging, interactive buying experiences with AI-powered assistance

Bigtincan's Digital Sales Rooms transform how buyers interact with your content by creating personalized, branded spaces where prospects can access all relevant materials in one place. What sets our solution apart is the integration of SearchAI, which allows buyers to query content you've shared and get immediate answers to their questions.

This capability allows you to:

• Save time for both sellers and buyers by providing instant responses to product questions
• Increase buyer engagement by making information easily accessible
• Create a more interactive experience that drives deals forward faster

Buyers who can easily find answers to their questions are more likely to progress through the sales cycle, with Digital Sales Rooms contributing to up to 35% increases in sales and 90% faster close rates (as per our data).

Bigtincan Readiness: AuthoringAI with translation and voiceover, microlearning, badging, and certification

Our readiness and learning management system is built with one aim in mind: to facilitate learning as effectively as possible based on the best available scientific evidence.

"Corporate training" typically involves over an hour of lecturing, reading, or watching a video, followed by a quiz to measure learning success. Then, employees are asked to work "in the field" (a retail store, for example) and retain as much of this training as possible.

Unfortunately, studies show that long, lecture-style presentations result in abysmal retention rates of around 20% of information — and that’s based on measuring immediate recall.

It only gets worse from there. Retention of initial learning drops off further as time goes on, as you can see from the below illustration (Ebbinghaus’ forgetting curve):

Image Source: iSpring

The best solution to this retention problem is microlearning, which is defined as short, frequent lesson modules paired with opportunities for practice.

Companies using Bigtincan Readiness leverage this microlearning principle by having standard video run times of around 3-5 minutes, sometimes as short as a minute.

This enables employees to do on-the-job learning paired with practical exercises to improve retention and measure learning.

For example, a retail store employee can look up details of a product right there when a customer asks about it instead of trying to recall information from a training session that morning or earlier in the week. Retention rates skyrocket when employees can do this.

Other benefits of the microlearning approach include:

• Less onboarding time for new employees.
• Searchable, on-demand training, allowing employees to grow their skills.
• Measurably higher information retention.

Along with microlearning, the other pillar of our LMS is training validation through badging and certification.

Our badging and certification capabilities can:

• Boost employee motivation and engagement with training.
• Increase accountability with in-app visibility of training achievements.
• Interface with groups and permission levels to unlock other content or access areas.

Finally, we realize that not everything can fit into five-minute chunks. Some topics are too sensitive, in-depth, or complex to break into microlearning segments. For example, certain types of compliance training must be conducted specifically during onboarding. Our LMS also allows you to validate completing long-form training, seminar attendance, or other traditional training methods via badging and certification.

Document automation: Easily customize compliance-approved documents and save teams hundreds of hours of manual work

In heavily regulated sectors, like life sciences and financial services, compliance requirements frequently slow down content production and represent a major cost burden.

Specifically, certain documents (like a presentation in the financial industry) may have to go through careful legal and compliance review, and customer-facing employees need to use that exact version but with personalized numbers or data for each customer.

In most organizations, employees manually personalize these files for each customer, costing hundreds of employee hours per month.

Bigtincan automates this. The compliant file is saved as a template, but, importantly, we can sync to the customer data source like a CRM and automatically pull the needed data and create personalized versions of the legal-approved file (say, a presentation) in minutes.

Here are some more examples:

• Creating compliant sales presentations customized to the prospect with minimal need for review.
• Easily generating rich reports in financial services, with the client’s portfolio, numbers, and data already in the report.
• Using data integration to significantly reduce human error.

How does Bigtincan differ from other sales enablement platforms?

To sum up, our platform is likely a good fit if one or more of these statements is true:

• Your training methodology is still mired in inefficient, outdated techniques and record-keeping, and you’d benefit from modern microlearning, certifications, and badging.
• You need a streamlined, integrated file management system optimized for enterprise use, with advanced features like cloud connection to other repositories, full-text search, offline file management, and rich tagging.
• Your compliance requirements take up more than their share of time and budgetary considerations during content creation.
• You recognize the advantages that solutions like offline sales enablement functionality, AI content discovery, and automated rich report generation offer.

We offer our clients a 100% custom-tailored experience, beginning with a completely individualized, fully functional demonstration and continuing into onboarding and beyond.

How do users find Bigtincan?

• Users praise Bigtincan's exceptional flexibility and customization capabilities, highlighting how the platform adapts to their specific business processes rather than forcing them into a predefined structure.
• Many appreciate the comprehensive AI-powered features, particularly GenieAI's ability to help reps save up to 2 hours daily through automated content recommendations, meeting summaries, and sales coaching.
• Teams in regulated industries value Bigtincan's document automation tools that streamline compliance processes while saving hundreds of hours of manual work.
• Learning and enablement professionals highlight the microlearning approach and AuthoringAI capabilities that dramatically reduce content creation time and improve training effectiveness.
• A few mention that taking full advantage of the platform's capabilities requires thoughtful implementation planning (which we help with!).

If your firm still relies on outdated, low-retention, long-form training methods and struggles to organize and utilize truly massive content repositories, schedule a demo today to learn how Bigtincan can help.

Showpad features and details

Showpad is a sales enablement platform integrating training and coaching software with content solutions to support sales growth. It's more catered towards sales teams only as opposed to the entire GTM team.

They have four separate products:

• Showpad AI
• Showpad Coaching
• Showpad Content
• Showpad Video

These products are available separately, or you can get a combined package.

According to Showpad’s website, here’s what Showpad Coach offers:

• Training, assessment, practice, and coaching-style management features all in one place.
• An easy-to-use user interface to help drive engagement.
• A MeetingIQ feature that records transcribes, analyzes, and stores meetings for review so you can gain additional insights.
• Support sales managers in conducting training and assessing outcomes with Manager Hub.
• Scalable course creation, reporting, and user management to help grow teams and training efficiently.

And here’s what you can expect with Showpad Content:

• A centralized location that can bridge the gap between sales and marketing by helping sellers discover, present, and share on-brand content with visually engaging experiences.
• Easy, centralized digital asset management that connects with existing CMS or DAM (digital asset management) systems and notifies your teams of updates immediately.
• An intuitive interface allowing for elaborate configuration enables marketing teams to distribute sales content quickly to sellers while leveraging metadata (including tags, granular file permissions, compliance settings, user settings, and content divisions) to increase efficiency.

Showpad has experience working with businesses in healthcare, manufacturing, construction, chemicals, technology, and consumer packaged goods.

How do users find Showpad?

• Users praise how Showpad centralizes all sales content, enables seamless content sharing, and makes collaborating with prospects easy, primarily through Shared Spaces (Showpad's digital sales room feature).
• Showpad’s UI is regularly described as intuitive, with many users noting how easy it is to organize, update, and find a broad range of content formats.
• Sales users particularly appreciate the proposal and offer tracking capabilities and notifications that make monitoring prospect activity straightforward.
• Users also report frustrations with reliability issues, mentioning difficulty accessing content at critical moments and system updates causing problems like duplicate work assignments.
• Several reviewers also mention confusing file hierarchies and slow buffering times for longer videos as ongoing challenges.

Bigtincan vs Showpad

Where Showpad takes a standardized, boilerplate approach to deployment — promising to get you "up and running in 2 weeks" — Bigtincan invests in a truly personalized implementation that aligns with your specific business processes. While Showpad offers a clean interface, it struggles with flexibility, reliability issues, and limited customization, which could make it harder for you to tweak things on the go.

Showpad offers MeetingIQ transcription, but Bigtincan provides tone analysis and coaching insights that directly impact sales effectiveness. 

For learning content, Showpad does offer an AI-assisted process. However, Bigtincan offers AuthoringAI for content creation and RolePlayAI for sales practice. So, your enablement team can create courses and embed specific role-playing or coaching sessions within them to make the exercise more in-depth.

Showpad's Shared Spaces is comparable to Bigtincan's DSR. Many G2 users report that the analytics feature is one of the most valuable parts of the platform. That said, Bigtincan does offer additional features like SearchAI, which creates an interactive experience where prospects can get immediate answers to their questions.

Seismic features and details

Seismic is an AI-powered sales enablement platform designed to equip customer-facing teams with the tools, content, and insights they need to engage clients effectively and drive business growth. The kicker they cater to the entire GTM team — such as sales, marketing, enablement, and customer service. 

They offer four products (and additional capabilities):

• Seismic Content
• Seismic Live Social 
• Seismic Knowledge
• Seismic Learning

The key difference is that it’s one of the few enablement platforms that offer a live social feed that sellers can curate in minutes and share.

According to their website, here are the most important things to know about Seismic for marketers:

• Their content management system is designed to help team members stay on the same page and organized.
• Content automation and distribution help ensure accuracy, relevancy, and ease of use for delivering and deploying sales materials.
• Sales content analytics allow you to measure content performance, gain real-time insights into how content affects revenue, and anticipate future content needs.

On the other hand, here's what you should know about Seismic if you work on the enablement or operations side of things:

• Seismic prioritizes arming administrative teams with materials, training, and information to excel and serve sellers the perfect content.
• Seismic's content delivery system ensures the latest information, news, and content is accessible, up-to-date, and ready to use.
• Their enablement analytics are geared towards tracking training usage and engagement to measure usage and effectiveness.

Lastly, here's what Seismic offers for sales team members:

• Intelligent search engine features and self-service profiles ensure sales reps can quickly find the sales assets and insights they need.
• Seismic's collaboration functionality allows sales members to work together efficiently on content and spend more time selling.
• Using dynamic templates with a feature called Livedoc, sales reps can automatically customize and generate ready-to-deliver documents for their customers.

They have experience working with firms in banking and financial services, business tech and business services, healthcare and life sciences, and manufacturing.

How do users find Seismic?

• Users praise Seismic's comprehensive feature set, powerful content management capabilities, and strong integrations with Microsoft and Salesforce.
• Many highlight how the platform excels at content organization and version control, helping teams stay aligned with the latest materials.
• Enterprise organizations particularly appreciate Seismic's LiveDocs technology for creating dynamic, data-driven content, while marketing teams value the robust analytics that provides insights into content performance and usage.
• Users consistently mention the steep learning curve and complex administration requirements as significant pain points, with many noting that "almost too many features" can overwhelm sales reps.
• The mobile experience receives frequent criticism for not being optimized for field sales, with complex menus, poor navigation, and long load times.
• Many organizations find they need to rely heavily on Seismic's services team for ongoing platform management, adding to the total cost of ownership.

Bigtincan vs Seismic

Seismic overwhelms users with a complex UI and requires significant technical resources. But Bigtincan delivers a sophisticated platform that remains intuitive and accessible. While both solutions offer enterprise-grade capabilities, Bigtincan's approach focuses on flexibility and ease of adoption rather than feature overload. We provide high-touch implementations so you start with the areas that matter the most to you — reducing overwhelm.

Seismic's LiveDocs technology requires coding knowledge and expensive consultants. On the other hand,  Bigtincan's Document Automation provides a user-friendly wizard that anyone can use without technical expertise. 

According to users, the acquisition of Lessonly hasn't fully addressed Seismic's training gaps. It still lacks the AI-powered coaching, role-playing, and microlearning capabilities that Bigtincan delivers these capabilities natively.

Highspot features and details

 

Highspot is a modern sales enablement solution designed to help sales teams use content and data to improve their effectiveness and efficiency.

This platform is optimized to manage content, onboard and train employees, guide sellers, and, ultimately, help businesses engage with customers better.

According to Highspot’s website, here’s how they deliver on those goals:

• Easy content integration for “one source of truth” that prevents sales reps from going off-message or using contradicting, outdated, or incomplete sources of information.
• Search that retrieves results from CRM, email, social media, and more — without manual tagging.
• Analytics tools to provide insights that help companies engage better with customers, driving revenue increases and improving customer satisfaction ratings.

According to Highspot, here are the "six essentials" they offer that ensure your sales team can derive maximum value from content:

1. A working search function that keeps reps doing their job, not wading through the wrong content.
2. Intelligent recommendations that adapt to the needs of each user, pairing team members with appropriate content based on their roles.
3. Browsing and filtering features to reduce wasted time hunting for content.
4. Evolution without the requirement for IT support so that as business conditions evolve, your content and the way it's stored and organized can, too — without needing to invest excessive resources in constant changes.
5. Highspot's features allow you to track down and update outdated content, remove duplicate content, and learn which content has less engagement than expected so you can fix or eliminate it.
6. Highspot integrates with cloud file systems and Salesforce CRM so that sales reps don't have to deal with siloed content or switch between platforms.

Highspot primarily works with finance, manufacturing, healthcare, life sciences, and technology businesses. 

How do users find Highspot?

• Users praise Highspot's clean user interface, fast onboarding process, and high seller adoption rates.
• Many users highlight the platform's intuitive search capabilities that help reps quickly locate content without extensive tagging requirements.
• Sales teams appreciate how Spots (Highspot's content organization system) creates a single source of truth that prevents reps from going off-message.
• Many note that the learning functionality has a "weak product with flawed features" and a "difficult UI to navigate."
• The mobile experience receives criticism for essentially being "like viewing a web page on your phone" without true mobile optimization.
• Several reviewers mention that the platform's reporting capabilities offer "minimal out-of-box reports" and present a "difficult UI/UX to work with when creating new reports."

Bigtincan vs Highspot

While Highspot offers a clean interface and is praised for adoption rates, its one-size-fits-all approach and limited customization capabilities may not match Bigtincan's tailored implementation strategy. Instead of forcing customers into a predefined box, Bigtincan adapts to your specific workflows and branding requirements. If customization is a priority, you’ll find Bigtincan would suit your team better.

Highspot's SmartPages also require design skills and time to create compelling experiences, while Bigtincan's Digital Sales Rooms with SearchAI provide immediate value without extensive design work. Similarly, Highspot's semantic search is powerful but slow to learn your business, whereas Bigtincan's SearchAI delivers immediate results with continuous improvement.

For global enterprises, Bigtincan's superior mobile experience, offline capabilities, and language support provide critical advantages over Highspot's basic mobile offering.

Most importantly, Bigtincan's dedicated GenieAI suite delivers AI-enhanced capabilities across the platform across areas like training, coaching, and content creation.

Which sales enablement platform sounds like the right choice for your team?

At the beginning of this comparison, we asked a simple question: Is your sales enablement platform just delivering content — or is it driving real change?

The differences are clear after reviewing the strengths and limitations of Seismic, Highspot, Showpad, and Bigtincan. While each tool brings something useful to the table, only one consistently balances intelligence, flexibility, and future readiness: Bigtincan.

It’s not just the AI-powered automation or the mobile-first design. It’s the way Bigtincan understands that sales enablement isn’t static. Teams evolve. Markets shift. Reps move fast — and your tools have to move with them. Where other platforms offer surface-level solutions or siloed features, Bigtincan delivers a connected, adaptive ecosystem built to scale with complexity and change.

If you're looking for more than content management or want a platform that caters to the entire GTM team, consider Bigtincan. If you're ready to take a tour, schedule a demo with us today.
