Outreach is an agentic AI platform for revenue teams that infuses purpose-built agents, conversation intelligence, and assistive insights to power use cases across revenue motions, from new logo prospecting to expansions, deal acceleration, driving retention, and forecasting.
Outreach is more detailed and gives you mroe abilility to drill down than Apollo. Apollo may be better for fidning outbound data source but it falls short in other areas and overall is a lesser tool in my opinion. Outreach also is more visual with showing responses and …
We used to suffer with the leakage of leads and with duplicate entries, just like how I mentioned earlier. After implementing it, our data hygiene has improved by a huge quantity. Our team has become more efficient in terms of reaching out to the prospect within minutes of showing interest in our SAAS security products and services, instead of spending time on data entry in the Excel sheets and then working on the lead. It has reduced our manual research time by almost 36 %, allowing the team to focus on revenue generation rather than Sales operations.
Outreach has made a huge impact to our business. As with any software, the key is in the implementation and making sure that all reps are onboarded and trained effectively to maximise the platforms capability. We have a sales team of 35, which includes customer success, whilst the platform may be suited for a larger business, for a company of this size this has been ideal
The ease of campaign creation is amazing! I can get a campaign set up in just a few minutes.
The reporting allows us to easily see the performance of our ads. There is no guesswork.
I love being able to create audiences from ZoomInfo tools such as Websights, intent, workflows and lists. This allows us to target a very specific audience that we otherwise would not have access to.
It is not very clear how to use the automated info-filler logic provided to customize emails and outreach to each prospect and account. More in-app guidance on that would be invaluable.
I wish my Outreach program didn't sign me out so frequently; I have to sign in multiple times a day.
I give this rating because I feel that ZoomInfo Operations has made our work easier and smoother than before. Like now we manage our sales leads, new engagements, easily, and the data we get from ZoomInfo Operations helps us a lot to move in the right direction. our customer success rate is higher than before after implementing it.
It's a strong tool that helps our sales development team manage a large number of qualified leads. The sequence framework ensures that every lead receives enough contact attempts that we have confidence that we're not abandoning our prospecting too early without the overhead of managing those activities manually.
Very easy to use - there are only a couple of areas that I need to think through how best to build specific rules or logic to ensure updates are made as expected. The ability to easily add filters and immediately see how many records match them creates a use case in itself. Sometimes we pull up Ringlead just to gain quicker access to counts of records that meet specific criteria, because it is faster than building views or reports in Salesforce. It is also extremely easy to see what records were updated, imported, or merged - the reporting and access to the history of activities are very helpful.
Overall, Outreach is usable and scalable across team sizes. The only reason I give a nine and not a 10 is that there are improvements that can be made within the reporting feature. It is usable, but not everyone can easily self-learn the best practices. At times, it may require building 2-3 reports and then using a VLOOKUP in Excel to achieve the desired outcome.
I have been using ZoomInfo on and off since 2018, and I have NEVER had the site go down on me once. I'm not sure how they do it, I'm not a software engineer, but they have 100% up time compared to other software as a service. Our CRM has already gone down a couple times this year, but not ZoomInfo.
In our years as Outreach customers, I can count the number of outages we've experienced on one hand. Generally, outages have been very brief and have not completely frozen our access to the platform. Scheduled maintenance is always proactive communicated and the hours never interfere with standard business hours or scheduled sequences.
I would rate its performance 9. I do not doubt its performance, the pages load quickly withour laging or error. It gives a report within the time frame without errors, no matter how complex the report is. We integrated it with our CRM; at first, it tended to slow a little, but later it was fixed and ran smoothly.
Outreach's performance overall is very high quality. Pages load right away. Occasionally it might take a minute to generate a report, but not any slower than in other platforms I've used. Outreach is integrated into many of our other tools and seems to be a very clean integration. Everything runs very quickly.
I give this rating because I never feel they deserve less than it. Their commitment towards the customer is outstanding, whenever I need to reach out to the supprot, I feel like I am just talking to a person who is sitting beside me. They respond quickly and solve the problems easily, even guiding us on how not to get into the same problem again and again, so we can avoid going back to support.
There is almost zero customer support. What they do offer is a live chat feature which is active during "normal" business hours which is nice for instant inquiries if someone is available. However, you do not have a dedicated representative to address questions or concerns and their billing process is confusing and messy without any support.
We were trained in person and it was very easy to understand. And if we missed any pointers there was more training given to us. So i always like this tool. The drafts were also prepared for us to sync outreach with our devices so it was straightforward. Highly recommend
Lots of attention from the Outreach training team, with a great willingness to customize to our needs. To be clear, you get out what you put in. If you don't work with them, you'll get cookie-cutter training. But we asked for a lot of customization, and they delivered what we asked for.
Have a plan on how you're going to evaluate. We had a two-month trial period, but a six-month average lead cycle time, making it impossible to evaluate on a purely new-business ROI basis within the trial. We applied the model to our prior data, which demonstrated how much time and effort was devoted to accounts that weren't going to close
I expected more assistance in connecting Outreach with Salesforce. We have a basic connection, but many fields were left without a sync. We can apparently sync data without adding the app into Salesforce, but believe we could get more functionality with a better integration. The basics of setting up our sequences and using Outreac to run them was was fine.
ZoomInfo is a more refined product that is more intensive, and it also has a considerably larger, more reliable database for data collection. However, cost is a big difference between ZoomInfo and Seamless AI. Consequently, it can sometimes be difficult to justify the price point difference.
Salesforce, Apollo, and HubSpot offer similar capabilities, but they simply don't meet the needs. They're more useful for other processes. But for specifically doing outreach as an AE or BDR, Outreach has everything you need. The integrations are great, the software is easy to use, the capabilities are well thought out, and it just makes your life/work a lot easier.
It can be scalable, and I've seen it at organizations that made it scalable, and organizations that did not. It really depends how well it integrates with your CRM (does great with Salesforce, for example). If a company doesn't take it serious, it will never scale unless you have decision makers and C-Suite pushing for it.
When I first joined the company we were a sales team of 10. Over the last 4 years we have grown to 30 and have used Outreach the entire time. Everyone uses Outreach and it works for virtually any size business. The seat model works perfectly for any size company plus Outreach can handle hundreds of thousands of emails being sent out. We never have to worry about throttling or any type of lag time based on usage. This is key when scaling.
