Clari is a predictive sales analytics and sales forecasting solution from the company of the same name headquartered in Sunnyvale.
I wasn't responsible for making this decision, but I have used the aggregate data that Gong.io has compiled on successful sales calls quite a bit. Fortunately, you don't have to purchase the product to get this, so you are able to reap these benefits without purchasing a …
It's every day. I can't do my job without Chorus by ZoomInfo. I record every external call. I'm able to actually have a meeting with my prospect without stopping and taking notes. I also can play myself back and learn to improve. It's very helpful when you use it to explain to the boss or other departments, "no guys, really, he said this!!!"
Clari is specifically well suited for sales reps, every week, every day to help organize their pipeline. Additionally Clari is very well suited for Sales Leaders to understand the entire sales organization picture in terms of expected company sales/revenue I can't think of situations where Clari is less appropriate, but not the entire company needs access and you do not want to waste license counts on that
Sales pipeline management: Clari provides real-time visibility into the sales pipeline, enabling sales teams to track the progress of deals and make informed decisions.

Sometimes there were issues with the 3-minute delay for Chorus joining a live meeting.
Occasionally, deliverables were assigned to the wrong person in the summary if their voices were similar or if they were on the same audio.
Occasionally, the Chorus had problems picking up on what someone was saying. This was likely due to user error but caused gaps in the conversation recording and transcript.
Integrating SFDC activity for opportunity health reporting was missing
Very expensive - somewhat hard to justify the cost vs. the value received, and the expense would increase as the organization increased in size.
End to End Revenue forecasting - it would be great if Clari could forecast potential revenue 3 - 4 quarters out based on current top of funnel activity. Clari is really strong for in-quarter forecasting, but not future looking.
It's hard for me to give anything more than a 5 at this point. The primary reason is that we have only used it for a few months and I'm still getting a feel for the level of value it provides both to me and the team. In 4 or 5 months I'll have a better understanding of its value long term
This was sold internally as something that would help us be more efficient. I had high hopes that the speech-to-text feature would be useful for getting call notes/next steps, etc documented. But due to the limitations of the software, these things would take longer using Chorus than if I just write things down manually - disappointing.
Clari is very good when it comes to usability as I'm accessing it on daily basis as long as I'm on my Notebook, it helps a lot having visibility on my business status and progress on achievement. I can estimate my weekly, monthly, and yearly opportunities closure and revenue. I have some saved views which are so useful to get what I want to see.
I personally have not had too many major issues with Chorus, but the times that I have reached out to their customer support team I have always received great responses in a very timely manner. Their support team is trained in a very polite way and cares about resolving your issue. They are knowledgeable and helpful and the customer service line does not take long to connect to a real individual.
Clari is very willing to jump in and build out use cases. They will work to do anything for you. That said, their follow up is not great. We have had to reach out for follow up several times on a project, which is still not complete. I wish they taught us how to complete what we want, rather than doing it in house for us
Like I noted in the other category, it has been smooth for the most part. But we really do enjoy the hard work of our CSM and everything he has been able to provide us in terms of support.
We stayed with Chorus by ZoomInfo because of the superior way it recaps our calls. Depending on the length of the call and what is being discussed, Chorus by ZoomInfo will usually provide 10 key points in clear detail. When we used Gong, we were finding it was only providing three or four key points. The quality of the recaps was very low as they were very short and were not worded very well.
Clari was selected due to the flawless integration with Salesforce, updates are made in real time. Being able to monitor everything at a scalable level has also been critical for our team. For example, we have different views established that show the rep level, manager level, director, customer segment. This eliminates unnecessary forecast/pipeline meetings
We have significantly decreased the number of overdue deals in our funnel.
We stay on top of deals within the pipeline much better now, since there is more transparency and accountability. This has sped up our sales cycle and our funnel is much more clean.
