We actually have not used any products like Chili Piper as of yet here at PitchBook. In my last role at Onerent I also did not use Chili Piper... the closest thing that we used was part of outlook/salesforce capability.
Bit different, but Drift is also for customer support/sales and they're currently trying to create sequences for their platform as well. Both are pretty glitchy, but I would say Outreach is a little more functional than Drift; laggy, but I've never really had mistakes happen …
Chili Piper is GREAT for sales development teams booking for sales people. This is especially true when there is a "round robin" system that needs to be abided by. I've experienced a lot of bad round robin systems and Chili Piper's is fantastic. This is also a great tool to schedule with people across multiple time zones, which I don't want to have to focus on while speaking. It enables sales reps to focus on the prospect, not the time change. Chili piper would not be a good fit for underperforming sales teams that don't book any meetings (:
It feels like Outreach has an opportunity to impress the sales world, but is not investing money in the functionality of the platform. I like what is there, but much of it has areas where tweaking would be extremely helpful. I would be happy to walk someone through areas where things could be improved. - What if I wanted to see a report on my priority 1 accounts and show a list of those contacts not touched in the past month. - Or what about bringing in Salesforce fields to help with sorting and filtering.
Outreach has a high degree of flexibility, but that comes with a need to invest time to understand the product. It will take some time to match CRM fields with Outreach and set up the two-way sync so that data captured by the users is available for subsequent marketing or sales efforts (or disqualifying leads or managing verbal opt-out requests)
Support was very responsive during our integration phase, and after that too.
They have the whole infrastructure built to notify customers about bug/outages, which is excellent. Entire System outage only happened once, but being updated on fix progress helped a lot to keep our team calm.
There is almost zero customer support. What they do offer is a live chat feature which is active during "normal" business hours which is nice for instant inquiries if someone is available. However, you do not have a dedicated representative to address questions or concerns and their billing process is confusing and messy without any support.
Lots of attention from the Outreach training team, with a great willingness to customize to our needs. To be clear, you get out what you put in. If you don't work with them, you'll get cookie-cutter training. But we asked for a lot of customization, and they delivered what we asked for.
Calendly was being used at the company by some other departments and still is to some extent. However adding Chili Piper fore the marketing and sales departments was a no brainer once we saw the demo. It's Calendly on steroids and the company is just getting started using it. I'm sure we will see even more benefits as the years go on.
Outreach is designed with a workflow-first approach, which helps ensure that reps adopt the process and allows AI and machine learning to understand the full funnel. On top of this, Outreach offers more robust functionality, reporting, and integrations than other competitors. Outreach also understands user workflows, which helps influence rep behavior and outcomes.
Because I genuinely like Outreach. It helps me to plan my day better. It helps me to track my work for the next day. It helps me to strategize work with my coworkers. It helps me to better my work as I can see the team's performance. Outreach helps in engagement and drives results.
The huge positive impact it had was the team not needing to spend as much time as disengaged opps as they were engaged ones. We were able to set sequences to work with them while the team could focus on generating new leads or converting Opps.
For an AE - post demo communication is important. With templates and snippets we could just click a few buttons and have a really nice email sent out with the relevant information and then the next several steps already planned out. This freed up time for us and even allowed us to take calls a lot sooner after demo's then before. For busy days this was very helpful.
