    It is very similar to competitors. Some better, some worse. But the core abilities it has, it does well. If you are in the market for a sales dialer, this is a good one to go with. Contact them, ask them good questions. The product is sound, but be ready for a significant …

    This product really can make a strong business impact if you implement it correctly. The struggle we faced was making sure that all the data was correct and that it was updated the data the way we wanted it. We considered using connectleader which had a similar look and feel …

    With Outreachr, you have the old school version of dialing, waiting, hanging up etc. ConnectAndSell is a much more efficient tool when it is running in full swing. Unfortunately, the implementation team spent the majority of the introduction trying to teach us how to sell …

    Ultimately, it comes down to quantity vs. quality. While you can absolutely develop great quality pipeline using ConnectAndSell, its biggest value is in generating a huge quantity of opportunities for your sales reps.

    Lightning has a better success rate for connecting (in terms of it takes less time to connect using Lightning) but Lightning was definitely using shadier connecting tactics and also required the user to be focused intently when it connected you with a prospect. When using …

    If your organization relies on outbound leads through cold calling, this is a great tool for you. ConnectAndSell definitely made the associate's jobs easier at our company and allowed them to produce greater output than they could have done manually without such a tool. This tool is less appropriate if cold calling isn't a big part of your company's lead generation efforts.

    Cons
    ConnectAndSell, Inc.
    • One thing that's been difficult about Connect and Sell is some people can tell you've been patched through so if you can work past the initial conversation it ends up working great.
    • The system has worked great with outreach which we've integrated our contacts directly into the system. Because of this the connection between outreach and connect and sell don't always communicate calls and metrics which are crucial for us to know conversion rates.
    • We had a hard time getting the system implemented quickly and working the way we wanted it to. Because of the implementation specialist we were working with problems weren't solved quickly rather they were worked through quickly however they were solved.

    For the right reps who are good at talking to prospects who aren't expecting their call, this is a no brainer.

    I have had a few support calls with their people. They are totally reachable and helpful, sharing screens, controlling my screen, showing why things happened, not just correcting it. If you have an issue with the software, let them help. They are there for you, and they are friendly, accessible, and happy to do their job.

    Return on Investment
    ConnectAndSell, Inc.
    • It gives you greater potential to lock in a client, but I'm not sure from my end if this ROI is worth the headaches. It has a lot of work before it can become a truly reliable source for outbounding.
