Considered Both Products
Clari
Chose Clari
I have not used other forecasting tools other than the built-in functions in Salesforce, Gong, and Outreach. I think that the benefit of Clari against these other tools that almost any Sales organization has is that their whole focus is on forecasting and visibility into your …
Chose Clari
Clari is the most user-friendly platform in my opinion, and I've had the best customer service experience with my support team. Clari has continued to prove its ROI after each sub-platform we've implemented, and has built trust and adoption from the AEs to C-Level mgmt.
Chose Clari
The integration with Salesforce gave it an added advantage since we have SF as the CRM, it very well integrates with Clari and all the manual tasks gets eliminated .

Great User Interface
Gong
Chose Gong
I've used Clari at a previous organization, and Gong.io has a better UI and seems to capture more call performance metrics that help reps improve.
Chose Gong
pretty high, SFDC too slow, Outreach way better than Salesloft, Clari is for managers as a rep i keep track of that in my own notes. Gong is a platform build for sellers and managers to help progress deals where as the others feel like tools meant to help predict a business not …
Chose Gong
I've only used Gong. Nothing else really compares.

We use Clari alongside Gong. Clari is better for Forecasting, but we used Gong for the conversation analytics.
Chose Gong
Manager using for forecasting with Clari instead of Gong
Chose Gong
We used Clari for forecasting previously and Gong has very similar functionalities. I have never used another call recording software.
Chose Gong
I personally thought Gong was much easier to use than Clari, although they’re not necessarily exactly the same. Clari has more forecast data which I appreciate, but Gong’s feedback on sales calls seems more valuable to me, and was simpler to access. I thought it provided a …
Chose Gong
Gong works better with Slack. Also, Gong works the best with SFDC. In general, provides better integration with the enterprise tech stack.
Chose Gong
Getting active consent from the customers when being recorded
Chose Gong
Gong is a lot more in depth and has a much more data rich approach to the sales cycle than Groove. While groove is good at keeping your communication in line and on time, Gong really dominates when it comes to searching recorded calls and finding the key topics/exchanges you …
Chose Gong
CoPilot is good software, and the prices were relatively equal between the two. Gong's representative was more hands on in making us feel comfortable switching software and changing our infrastructure to accommodate. It was this care and handholding that put us over the edge. …
Chose Gong
Gong is much better than the tools I have used before simply because of a better UI, easy-to-use system and it has the whole package any sales professional might need. You can't build an outreach into Gong, which I think could be a great idea for the Gong team but the things …
Chose Gong
Gong's thought leadership, performance, intuitiveness, advanced conversation intelligence, and all-encompassing solution has helped me greatly and I wouldn't trade it for anything else.
Chose Gong
I think gong's main advantage is the multiple use cases and how it helps so many different user groups.

If Gong had a strong sequencing tool then I could see me using that over Outreach but for now I need to use a separate tool for prospecting efforts.
Chose Gong
The UI is better for Gong.io. The ability to search recordings is better for Gong and the overall accuracy of Gong.io is better.
Chose Gong
Gong.io doesn't do as many things as its competitors, but what it does, it does really well. Gong.io is better at what it does than any other competitor. A tool like Salesloft can replace both Gong.io and Outreach, but its call recording is nowhere near as strong as Gong.io …

Clari
We use Clari as the primary way to manage our sales business, our opportunities, and our forecasting. Clari provides a very clean, digestible, and easy to manipulate format to view and manage all of the Salesforce information. The fact that Clari is able to provide an easily customizable set of columns and groups, coupled with the ability to write back to Salesforce is fantastic. Anyone in a mature sales organization will find Clari highly effective at helping manage their funnel of opportunities and their business.

Gong is a wonderful tool to be able to make sure that a call is recorded properly with next steps highlighted by an AI once the transcript has been processed. Our organization uses the clip functionality quite often to share a prospect question internally with the appropriate parties, and the sales and CS teams have it synced to SFDC so they can see the opportunity value associated with each call.

Pros
Clari
  • Creates call summary and add them in created tags to help us to targeted monitoring.
  • Help us create battlecards that agents can use on live calls.
  • Help us create library and playbook of good and bad calls for training.
  • Help us provide a call overview by team.

  • The history is quite useful in many aspects of my daily work, as I have a complete and detailed view of transcribed calls and email summaries of previously exchanged emails.
  • It's like an assistant; I can receive email reminders about things discussed during a video call, such as the upcoming date of a scheduled meeting or notes on certain key aspects the client needs for their order.
  • I can share calls through Gong with my clients. This gives me an added advantage, allowing the client to have reminders or a record of what was discussed without having to worry about manually taking notes.
  • The interface is complex but easy to learn, has many assistant-like features, and can also be integrated into many calling platforms, such as Zoom.

Cons
Clari
  • Sometimes we'll update everything and it won't save so GTM teams have to do it again. Not sure if it's whenever we do platform updates.
  • As a manager I'm not able to reorder my teams names in the rows. I have to ask our Admin to sort A-Z which is time wasted

  • AI analysis - I'd love to see some more proactive analysis or the ability to set warning signs.
  • Cross-account analysis - I'd like to be able to run the Gong prompts across a set of customers or all calls within a certain range
  • Ease of Zapier accesss - I'd love to see even more connections built to Zapier.

Likelihood to Renew
Clari
I will renew my Clari Subscription for many reasons. 1. Streamlines Sales - Clari automates many manual tasks like note-taking and transcripts. This frees my sales team so they can focus on closing deals. 2. Increased customer retention - Clari helps me identify potential churn risks and take proactive measures. 3. AI-Driven Insights

Gong is one of the best if not the best tools we have in or tech stack in terms of ROI and ease of use. The ai features that have been released over the past year have continued to add value and are not just shiny new features that don't get used. It is also an easy to use platform for our sales and customer success reps, takes very little time to become proficient in. The deal boards also provide great visibility into opps for management and leadership

Usability
Clari
Clari's UI does not resonate with new users. The backend query updating takes quite long time to update. Lots of fixes are needed without answers or solutions offered by the Clari team. If set up correctly with clear recommendations from the Clari team, all the previous issues may be resolved, however the usability is tied closely to set up.

By default it automatically provides a lot of proactive information. Out of the box you can get a lot of value from what gets recorded with minimal setting adjustment. The effort you put in to enhancing it just makes it all the more powerful but you do not have to have a dedicated admin to get basic usage out of it.

Support Rating
Clari
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

I give them a 10 because, I have been using Gong for over a year now and have never had issues or concerns go un resolved in a day or two. Their communication is impeccable and their tech support is very hands on and prompt

At the time of selection, Clari was a more mature product than Xactly Forecasting. We did not want to experience growing pains with Xactly. Pipeline Inspection from SFDC was just becoming available. We had already selected Clari before we learned about Pipeline Inspection.

I've used Chorus at a past company. It seems to do the transcriptions similarly accurately to Gong. Good enough call recording. The call feedback can be done too although maybe not as easily. I do not believe Chorus can create call playlists. I do feel there are a lot less analytics pieces to Chorus too. There are many feature addons in Gong to help sales motions.

  • saves a lot of time, mainly thanks to call summaries & next steps as well as workflows allowing to automate communication
  • I could say that generally speaking it does increase revenue because you can do more work in the same period of time > more leads, more opportunities, more sales
