Gong vs. Reply

It is well suited for sales teams, definitely, but any customer-facing role where an employee will be on the phone a lot with clients. Due to the AI functionality, this is a super helpful tool for coaching, accountability, and streamlining your processes. It is less appropriate for team members who aren't having client calls or those who mostly host internal calls.

The
reply is an excellent sales management solution. If any company wants
to save time and keep their sales team flexible, they should try it first. It
is a fantastic tool for delivering multiple emails to any target audience. This
is also the best deal for firms who looking for an all-in-one solution, as it
provides virtually unlimited email addresses along with CRM and outreach
automation.

• This product gives me the liberty to very easily and freely navigate all things on my own, which does not require many skills to start working.
• This product gives us the leverage of creating our own tailored and personalized templates for our teams in just a matter of minutes.
• This program is so automated that it performs everything on its own from LinkedIn to email search, to even booking meetings.
• I found the onboarding process pretty great and efficient. I am really happy with the overall customer support. They are some of the nicest people I have met who are there to willingly help me at any time of need and problem.
• Their usability is also hands down very good. However, I find their user interface to be slightly less user-friendly, so there is some degree of scope in the improvement of their user intuitiveness and user-friendliness.

• sometimes the call will say the wrong contact is speaking. Adding to 'Jims' talk time when it was actually 'John' speaking
• The transcript can be missing some info or mis-dictating what was actually said
• it can be hard to lookup certain calls, sometimes a call won't be under my name even though I booked and ran the meeting

• Syncing to other programs. You cannot interrelate Reply with other software in a simple way. Zapier is required and even then it’s not perfect.
• Similar to syncing, there’s no way to export results of particular campaigns. This is awful. If I send out a campaign to a group, I’d like to export the results to enter into a CRM since I can’t sync the contacts. One of these features must be added ASAP.
• Organization. While Reply itself is user-friendly, keeping campaigns and contacts and results organized is not. You cannot organize campaigns or file them away when they are done. Therefore you have to delete campaigns to stay organized and lose results, which you cannot even export.

We love Gong and our customers like it too. We can bring additional value by being to provide a dialogue of all our customer conversations.

Seamless, easy to understand and get around without much research. Between the simplistic options and the fluid layout, I easily got in the tool on day one and found value. I did not need onboarding calls as an end user to easily take advantage of the platform. Which when you have 20+ accounts to manage, time is important.

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

I generally receive a reply in no time at all and found not only the support org. but the sales team to be extremely helpful. Additionally I found a great onboarding process with plenty of resources to consume.

This is nothing something I'm able to answer

Zoom has great integrations and summary tools. There is less insight at the company level, whereas Gong is built to give insight across the customer journey. Zoom pushes to Hubspot nicely, but Hubspot doesn't have the capabilities to organize this data at the company level in the way that Gong does. You can piece together the call recording features, but you can't replace the level of insight that Gong offers at the company level by leveraging call data

These tools are great, but they aren't built for what we use Reply for. Reply is perfect for doing these outbound campaigns at scale, whereas with ActiveCampaign and Vitally we were trying to turn the tools into something they are not.

• Has provided the ability to refer back to calls and actual hard evidence than guessing what was said on calls based on memory
• Increased alignment across sales, cs, and management providing call summaries and recordings as a single source of truth.
• Has increased cross team collaboration allowing CS and PM teams to work directly together by sharing call recordings and getting right to the specifics of what was said during the meeting as opposed to lengthy response times trying to find the capacity to share details manually with one another; now we just share the specific section of the recording and can continue on with our individual priorities.

• They lacked proper security certifications.
• Saved time and effort on mass email campaigns.
• Helped gain insights on our outbound business efforts.
