Chose Gong
We evaluated Chorus.ai and Pickle against Gong and Gong was the favorite for our use case. It was a market leader with some presence in region and clearly focused on the key trend analysis and coaching that we required.

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.

Pipedrive is a fantastic tool to help monitor and track lead generation and referral sources. It helps maintain accountability with the sales team and helps ensure that we are doing appropriate marketing to maintain a steady influx of cases. The weekly and quarterly sales reports that it can generate are incredibly helpful and insightful. They help inform us of what we need to focus on each quarter/year.

Pros
Gong.io
  • 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.

  • Great visual visibility of the funnel plus easy to drag the deals across the stages
  • The email integration that collects all relevant communication (also through the possibility of adding a deal-specific Pipedrive address on BCC)
  • The integration with Pandadoc, which we use a lot, so that Pipedrive keeps a really handy overview of the documents we have sent out / which have been signed

Cons
Gong.io
  • 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.

  • Showing the customers name on the pipeline page. Right now I can only get it to show the brand name twice. I wish it would replace the second brand name with the main point of contact.
  • Better reporting tools. Their reporting tools are not easy to pick up. I've spent time trying to figure it out and it isn't something I can pick up on quickly.
  • Better training options. I wish I had a personal trainer to walk me through the best way to use Pipedrive so I can get the most out of it.

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
Gong.io
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.

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

Between quick video tutorials and having very quick feedback from their support teams, it is one of the main reasons I would recommend Pipedrive. It is critical, especially when setting up the platform to meet your companies needs, that a solid support team like Pipedrive has is there to make the transition easier.

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.

I much prefer the interface of Pipedive when compared to Zoho. Much more user friendly and the team is always readily available when we need them. Pipedrive allowed for many custom integrations to be added, as Zoho was a tad more complicated to manipulate. We would not go back to Zoho in any case.

Return on Investment
Gong.io
  • 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

  • Great on setup which made our work easier and less technically equipped people can manage a lot of things(compared to SalesForce where you need to hire a developer to set it up)
  • We were able to integrate our calling system easily and get things going on the lead calling aspect.
  • Great multipipeline option where we were able to manage both organisations under one roof.
