    • Groove is excellent for the use case of improving sales representative and customer success representative productivity and data quality when used alongside Salesforce. It is a Salesforce focused tool. You should definitely consider Groove if you are a current Salesloft / Outreach user and you also use Salesforce.
    • Groove would not be a good fit for an organization not using Salesforce.

    Spiky sales coaching powered by AI. The difference between sales coaching and sales training is that coaching is all about improving what is already going on in your sales operations, so the results come faster for two reasons: a) Personalized recommendations to each member of the team based on analysis of their current sales meetings and performance. b) The recommendations and suggestions can be prioritized for implementation based on results. Sales training is about general best practices and skills that need to be acquired and practiced by your team for a certain time before you can see the results. It's more general, less effective, and less immediate. Spiky is sales coaching on steroids.

    • I don't particularly appreciate that it's only available in English.
    • We do also operate with customers in South America, where all conversations are carried in Spanish, so presently, we can only enjoy the competitive advantages in half of our sales operations.
    • This kind of breakthrough technology should be available globally.

    I actually don't have any complaint regarding groove. It's just that I will give 9 since I confidently believe that there'd be updates in the future which would be more optimal not just for us users but for the business as well. The only regret I have with groove is I was not able to use it before the current company that I'm employed

    Groove has been an awesome platform to use for sales pipeline management. I really enjoy how it integrates with my Salesforce, Gmail, and Google Calendar. It makes my job easier by helping me keep track of the progress of each sales contact that I have. Leads are able to reply and notify us using Groove.

    Groove is simple. Like their competitors, they give you the ability to create templated "Flows" (sequences) of calls, emails, and LinkedIn touches. Some of them can be automated, but it's also simple to personalize outreach. Ultimately, my decision to purchase Groove over some of the competitors was based on their Salesforce integration, as well as white-glove customer service.

    Spiky.ai has a unique approach for layering in sentiment/emotional analysis, which makes it much easier to review calls with the context. For example, sales reps and managers can capture how customers react to demos, new product features, different talk tracks, answers to questions or objections etc. This would be super hard to analyze (and very subjective) and do without Spiky's assistance on calls. There is so much data from video calls that are not captured by traditional tools like Gong and Spiky is adding super powers that help everyone better understand what is working or isn't working.

    • Reduced several hours a week of logging time in Salesforce that either wouldn't get done or would have been done to the detriment of more value add activities.
    • Saves hours per week by delivering actionable/useful info from Salesforce into Gmail
    • Gives me valuable insight on what emails are being opened and read. This helps plan targeting.
