Likelihood to Recommend Any team that has a direct relationship with a client via a phone or a video call would benefit from Gong. I've worked on sales in the past and these tools are the dream of every leader. I can't think of a better way to get actual material from our performance to give us a better chance to detect areas of improvement and hone our skillset before our next call. Even it's super fast. In merely a few minutes after the call you receive an email telling you that the recording is already ready for us to exploit it
Read full review If the person/ department does not have any knowledge in open source tools such as R, and Python. [Salesforce Einstein Analytics (formerly Wave Analytics)] could be a good option with no coding background required. However, if they have such human resource or can acquire these people, I would recommend open source tech and suggest not to use this tool.
Read full review Pros Recommendations to improve (silence time, speaking ratio, etc.) Source of absolute truth! So easy to see what meetings have been done, and how it was done. No more he says she says Transcription - it has been accurate, and helps when trying to learn how to handle rejections Read full review Interactive Dashboards, it [consists] of wide variety of charts Data from different sources can be easily integrated with it Security, it provides easy way to secure and share the information with the users Support actions like opening hyperlink etc Almost everything can be done from configuration Data can easily be managed from dataflow. Read full review Cons Would like to have Gong use AI to alert me when a customer is at risk for attrition Would like to make it easier to search on Accounts. When I type into the search field, sometimes multiple accounts appear, and when I click on one, there's an error. Read full review Implementation takes time and resources. It is a heavy lift to implement and at first, it can take a little bit of time to understand what you are looking at. But once it's implemented it's easy to get started. Without any BI expertise or resources available to your organization, the implementation of this is difficult. If you aren't used to BI tools and don't have an expert in house, the terminology can be difficult to understand at first. Their support is not on hand to help you if you encounter any issues, at least not on all the plans or the basic plans. Real-time support service is an add-on, so you'll need to be patient if you require help or pay extra money. More functionality for the tool is needed to compete with other heavyweights in the arena like Tableau, Qlik, and Microstrategy. Still lacks the robustness, functionality, and flexibility other competing products possess. Read full review Likelihood to Renew 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.
Read full review Usability Esy and simple to use outside of a few clunky moments with integrating to zoom/gcal or resetting the duration of recordings. Overall it's a really great tool that certainly empowers customer success and account managers to add of ton of value to the customer experience in a really simple way and makes the process more smooth and secure.
Read full review Overall usability is absolutely worth the price. It help me to save tons of time working on raw data in Excel file. It also minimize the discrepancy in data format when there are multiple user inputting the data. Every data inputted in Salesforce is standardized, therefore it is very easy to keep track / generating performance report even though you are having more than 20 projects recorded in Salesforce Einstein Analytics.

Read full review Support Rating 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

Read full review I have not come across any bad experiences with the support provided. Also, I observed regular updates have been implemented without breaking the tool. But in my opinion, Now Tableau CRM has huge market challenges with tools like Power BI and its spread
Read full review Implementation Rating This is nothing something I'm able to answer
Read full review An implementation partner would certainly result in greater output in a more efficient amount of time. However, I have found implementation partners to be extremely expensive for the output received (at least working for a non-profit company they are frequently unaffordable). Internal implementation does help with usable output though since internal knowledge would better know the data architecture and business processes
Read full review Alternatives Considered We used to use Zoom recordings but they don't compare, we also had to spend a ton on extra storage while Gong is unlimited. In my opinion, Zoom/etc. provides no insights, no ability to score calls, no collaboration, poor sharing, etc.
Read full review Tableau is the absolute top of the class when it comes to business intelligence, but it doesn't make sense for every business case. In our case, we needed a simple data visualization platform for our CRM platform and sales pipeline. Salesforce Analytics, while nowhere near as robust, did the job we needed it to do perfectly in a significantly more cost-effective manner.

Read full review Return on Investment Greater collaboration across internal teams Improved presentation and conversation skills, based on manager feedback and individual assessment Improved patience (must fewer instances of interrupting customers thanks to Gong) Customers are more confident in their decisions (when they can rewatch demos) Better alignment with customers, since we can be truly present on the call then listen to the recording later instead of taking notes in real-time Read full review Absolutely a must-have tool if you are working on saving project Create a centralized database to track project target across region Easily create chart to showcase data / performance Tony Phan Tactical Procurement Specialist (Vietnam & APAC Support) - Source To Procure Team
