    Last year we moved from Groove to Outreach because our Sales Ops team felt it had better email campaign tracking. I was strongly against the move because although Outreach allows you to send a link via email to view my availability and book appointments, its limited to my …

    I would have to say Groove is the best and most updated one since these are tools that are much older. As you can see one of them is just discontinued. Working with these tools before has made me appreciate groove more for its usability and accessibility. We actually switched …

    The usability was really bad. The integration with Salesforce was not working as we expected. I was not the person responsible for testing, but from the time I have spent I feel that Groove is a much better and simpler tool.

    Groove allows more seamless tracking into Salesforce and also enables more collaboration between SDRs and with the Account Managers.

    • 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.

    ZoomInfo Engage has been outstanding in setting up automated workflows. It allows us to be more efficient in our day-to-day planning because once you set up a workflow, your planning for the next several days is done. One area for improvement would be to allow other domain emails for marketing. I have my primary domain email, but when I'm reaching out to potential candidates I would rather use a different domain. This is not possible.

    • In my experience, super unreliable product... too many bugs for a knowledge worker
    • In my opinion, overpriced. They are making money for its affiliation with sales os product.
    • In my experience, filtering is messed up and buggy. No real support for Account based focus campaigns... Just good for basic calling, recording, and auto sync with CRM... everything else, sucks. Not reliable

    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.

    It works very well with the tools and other Zoom Info products that we already use. The fact that it integrates is a huge win for us because we designed our CRM internally so we are very sued to working a certain way. We can use this to boost the information and tools from our pre-existing ZoomInfo products as well, so it brings out a lot of value.

    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.

    I get a higher response rate from Linkedin Recruiter, but I think I can reach more passive candidates with ZoomInfo Engage. On the other hand, I did not have success with UpLead at all. Linkedin Recruiter does not have an automation feature, and you are limited to the amount of InMails you can send in a month, which is disappointing. ZoomInfo Engage customer service/technical support is hands-down better than LinkedIn.

    • 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.

    • We decided not to use Tellwise for the time being and will test it again in one year because what I saw so far is promising.
    • We haven't seen any substantial ROI.
