    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.

    Orum is especially well-suited for companies that have high top-of-funnel activity metrics. High-velocity and high-volume sales are more easily facilitated by Orum. Orum is especially useful for industries where cold calling still means conversion. Orum is a must-have in any early-stage startup's tech stack.

    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.

    • Calls get cut off more regularly than I would expect. I am not sure if that is an issue on Orum's end, but I don't think it is a network issue either so I am not sure why.
    • In the search lists, it would be nice if we could add favorite cadences or separate by our own.

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

    Orum
    Very easy to pick up and use. I was involved in the trial phase all the way through to implementation, and actually defined the internal Orum process for the company. Given my involvement I was very hands on and involved in training the bulk of the team, and found that many if not all users picked the tool up very quickly and it was very easy to document the process due to the usability. The only sticking point tended to be the CRM integration for loading in contacts to lists as this was a little bit fiddly, however the actual tool is super easy to use

    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.

    I have not needed to interact with their support team yet, so I cannot give a valid response. So far, their tool is simple and straightforward to use.

    We have moved to Salesloft. Salesloft gave us greater visibility into performance metrics and integrated with more software which in turn helped streamline our business.

    I have both Orum and Outreach but use Orum for instances where I need to call at scale. Outreach is designed for one-off calls but does not have nearly the breadth and quality of resources for dialing at scale that Orum does.

    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.

    • As a BDR, setting meetings is how I get most of my Bonus, and Orum has allowed me to do this more easily by reaching more prospects
    • Whereas before I may only be able to make 500 calls a week if I really grinded, I can make 1,000+ calls a week using Orum even easier
    • Orum's masking of my number has allowed me to get on the phone with folks that had seemingly been ghosting me for months, which has allowed me to grow my business
