Groove, a Clari company vs. Zoom Revenue Accelerator

• 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.

Zoom Revenue Accelerator excels at the everyday conversations, clients wanting to understand the market, how to use the product, or just to have a chat with their broker. ZRA eats these up, provides accurate sentiment analysis, and decent enough summaries that we can start to gleam insight from the myriad conversations our client facing team are exposed to each day. Where it doesn't fully align with our business model is how it integrates with our CRM. ZRA is built for the B2B industry, and wants to attach conversations to contacts associated with deals in pipelines etc. It as a product has a poor grasp on the day to day interactions B2C businesses have with their clients, and Zoom have a lot of opportunity ahead at solving those problems.

• Groove lets us know real-time when a client has checked an email we sent them.
• Groove helps us streamline our day-to-day events, meetings, and tasks with the help of the Calendar Booking feature.
• Groove helps us save a lot of time on typing long letters when we explain our products to our customers with the help of their Templates feature.

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

It has certainly been useful, but now it overlaps with other tools we are using so probably we will have to be harder on ROI here

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.

Once you're through the setup it couldn't be easier. For our client facing team members it was very much an experience of. Today you're using "App A" and tomorrow log into Zoom and you're all setup. Zoom Revenue Accelerator is effortless for an end user to pick up and start using. But the setup is where you need help to understand. Various things with where recordings are stored, how calls are routed, and even who can access what phone numbers and recordings can be challenging to setup without help. And a number of docs aren't as up to date as they could be, given the Zoom UI can change so rapidly. Once they solve the sprawling admin side of the product, it'll be a 10 out of 10.

Our organization has not experienced any availability issues with 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.

Chorus.ai is very similar to Zoom IQ. I think the sales team should invest in either product. I was not involved in the purchasing process so I am not sure why one company was chosen over the other for us to work with.

Our organization was able to quickly scale Groove from a pilot group of a few users to a department-wide solution

• 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.

• Allows me to be Building repeatable scalable processes! Being authentic and creating more humility amongst the locker room.
• Provides stark contrast to those reps in the middle of the pack vs high activity top performers. I don’t always “see” the winning behaviors of the top reps, the win through effort, but many have a lot to learn about themselves and have even more opportunity to win more!
• Provides self awareness and coaching opportunities for the individual producers on their own
