Ambition vs People.ai

Likelihood to Recommend

Well suited: environments that crave social affirmation, social competition, or other organizations that can't incentivize success via compensation.Not well-suited: environments that support several similar roles that have different metrics. Example: we have 5 similar roles at my company that would benefit from Ambition, and each of these teams sits close to each other. It's challenging to customize Ambition to display multiple different roles with different metrics, rewards, and content. If you display the content on a screen in your office, it's best suited for only one role/team. Otherwise, you'll likely need to deploy Ambition to different teams separately, via a different account.

If you have a medium to large cs/sales team, I would recommend People.ai. Automated Opportunity Contact Role creation, contact create, and Gmail suite activity sync function is awesome and will avoid issues of "I emailed them last week! I know it is not in Salesforce but look at it here..." For small sales team, <20 people, you can still manually check and control the process.

Pros

Connect to our CRM, Salesforce.
Easily display on a shared TV screen in the office to share key metrics and content.
Help our sales team see the results of their hard work, and compare to their peers (if you set it up that way).

Simple integration in to sales reps workflows (Gmail, Salesforce, phone, etc)
Visibility in to rep activities. How many emails are being sent, who are they sending them to, how much time are they spending crafting emails?
All of this can be pushed in to Salesforce so that the executive team can maintain full visibility from our CRM.

Return on Investment

We rolled out a new metrics launch AND Ambition at the same time. Metrics attainment has risen significantly.
Some reps love seeing the results publicly, and some despise it. It highly depends on the sales culture of your team. The "non-salesy" types at our company only want to know their own metrics, and not participate in sales competitions or publicize the results.
