Ambition vs. Zoho Motivator

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.

Sales job becomes pathetic at some level when it keeps doing recurring jobs but when the fun-loving and interactive session comes into the picture any kind of job becomes easier and more productive again. When cold calling and lead generation work is needed the feature of Zoho Motivator really nail downs it and provides a booster to any kind of business.

They are always quick to answer any questions that you may have.

The support surrounding Zoho Motivator is phenomenal! You certainly get what you pay for. The support is always readily available and their team is extremely knowledgable. I have never had any issues with the software and not gotten the concern resolved by their team. Zoho overall is a great team with great backing.

I have not tried alternatives to Ambition but could not see what additional changes or iterations another company could deploy that Ambition is not currently doing

We previously used Insightly and Agile CRM, neither of which, at the time, had any tool that was similar enough to Motivator. Both systems had a Deals tracker, however, it was not very 'sales' oriented and had unimpressive filtering options. Motivator is an add-on to Zoho CRM, so the biggest up-sell is that it is integrated with our main CRM, and secondly, the Motivator module has numerous filters/views that can be tailored to our business as we grow.

• 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.

• It has an positive impact on me.
