A Customer Onboarding and Implementation template is a personalized plan with information, resources, and next steps to get your new customers up and running as soon as possible. It helps build confidence and a strong relationship between your success team and customers.


Customer Success teams want to provide the best experience, so they are often thinking the following:

  1. How do we make the experience the same time and time again?
  2. How do we make sure nothing falls through the cracks?
  3. How do we make sure our sales partner knows exactly where everything stands? And they are not calling us all the time and are upset because we haven't sent them an email today.
  4. If someone calls out unexpectedly, how does somebody else on the team pick up where they left off to make sure that the project keeps moving forward?

Recapped makes it easy for Customer Success teams to know where their clients are in the onboarding process. Through mutual action plans, they'll be able to ensure nothing falls through the cracks and get everyone on the same page while building a repeatable process for the success of all new clients.
