Revenue.io (formerly RingDNA ) is presented as a "sales acceleration engine" for inside sales teams using Salesforce. According to the vendor, its Intelligent Dialer for Salesforce aims to help outbound sales reps use Revenue.io to make more calls, connect with up to 400% more prospects, and fully automate voicemails. Part of the value proposition is also improving inbound call performance. Calls can be routed to the right reps based on any marketing source, complete with prospect data that…
Sales hub is an excellent tool for a sales professional, probably even the best tool available in the industry without a doubt. However it could be much less convenient for outside sales reps that need to consistently meet people in person, it has some features to cater to these reps but they aren't as robust as the ones designed for inside sales reps.
Revenue.io's automated pricing and demand forecasting features may benefit e-commerce enterprises with a large number of products and fluctuating demand. This can assist them in remaining competitive while increasing sales and profitability. Small businesses with a restricted product offering or consistent demand may benefit less from Revenue.io's advanced pricing and forecasting services.
The task feature of HubSpot has been super helpful for me to organize what activities I am focusing on throughout the day. Instead of having a generalized list of the activities that need to take place today, I can organize that list by calls, emails, to-do's, linked-in, etc. That way I can take an hour of my time and focus on only doing phone calls, only doing emails, etc. It has helped me increase my productivity by making 20 phone calls a day to 100 phone calls throughout the day.
Hubspot Sequences are also super helpful in order to plug and play contacts that need similar solutions. The automatic email feature allows me to not have to spend time sending a simple email template. Instead, it automatically sends that email out at the time that THEY would most likely respond.
This gives me more time to focus on the tasks that I can't automate, allowing me to be way more productive. I can also customize my sequences to automate when I am reaching out, and what activity I am doing.
Sequences give me the ability to create a highly customized approach, with the scalability of a plug and play format.
Speed at calling through lists, loading the account data into the intelligent dallier
Using the calling notes and other values, as triggers into our workflows
Using ringDNA data in our Marketing cloud journeys for customer service and sales purposes. For example, triggering an email send based on the results of a phone call
I find the interface to be a bit unorganized and sometimes the information added about projects looks clogged which sometimes makes it difficult to access specific information.
Sometimes we have to deal with different currencies because we have clients all over the world but the exchange rate tool is not always accurate, causing us to slow down our work.
It constantly logs out and forces me to log back in through both RingDNA and Salesforce before calling or texting anyone which requires a 2 step process. This can be prevented by logging into RingDNA at the start of each day before Salesforce, I just need to make this a habit!
When you go into "Contacts" in the dialer and search for someone, it does not predictively auto-populate Contacts based on what you have typed so far (unlike Salesloft, Outreach, etc) so you end up typing most of the contact's name each time when searching. Not a huge deal since I am primarily searching for people in Salesforce, but it would be nice to have this in dialer as well.
Ease of use, ease of customizability, and ease of 3rd-party integration, especially to LinkedIn Navigator, all play a vital role in our increasing reliance of HubSpot Sales for our growing sales team. Also taking into account the great training and support for HubSpot Sales available from HubSpot, including HubSpot Academy.
Since we launched HubSpot Sales Hub into our organisation's tech stack, we've experienced a smooth transition and implementation process for those using this solution. The ease of use and the interface experience is amazing and that was a main priority for us in the purchasing phase. So far, we've been nothing but very happy with the support, implementation, and ongoing development of our sales team adapting to the solution. Highly recommend it for usability and functionality!
I can say that this platform has been a great help from the beginning of the implementation and has helped exponentially to grow as a company. At no time have we had problems at the beginning or any confusion when using this software for the first time, it has always been very easy to use its interface and tool. In case we don't know something, technical support has always been helpful.
They have a dedicated support team to assist with any questions or issues users may encounter while using the application. However, this feature makes this platform live and steady
Revenue.io to evaluate its performance in terms of page load times or report completion. Regarding integration with other software or systems, its integration with other tools is designed to work seamlessly with other tools and systems without slowing them down. Furthermore, integration does not affect its efficiency and leads to smooth work
Oh my goodness HubSpot Support is just amazing. I submitted a question/issue to them yesterday and by this morning I had this response:
"Hi Stephanie, I hope this finds you well and thanks so much for your patience while I was working to update the extension with my team. We were actually able to push through an update yesterday afternoon which set the default lifecycle stage to lead in the sidebar. If you take a look now, that should be in place. If it has not updated yet, I would recommend uninstalling and re-installing the sales extension so an updated version and be pushed through. Again, I want to say that I sincerely appreciate that you took the time to reach out to us and help us iron this out. HubSpot really values constructive feedback with real use-case backing to help push it along. So, thank you!"
It fulfills our requirements for what we were looking for among the products available in the market. They have given demos so well and address all of our issues very well. They also quoted the best price for what we had in mind. Overall, it helps us zero in on our search with all the requirements and budget in mind.
It was not only SUPER easy to implement, we had some amazing support from HubSpot. They scheduled a call to go over each individual tool with our team and provided guidance and best practices plus answered any questions are new users had. It was wonderful and really helped them get started confidently
HubSpot Sales Hub helps our team keep track of all of our partners and customers in one place so we can market effectively and personally. Their blogs and "HubSpot academy" make it easy to learn/onboard. People care most about the service, which is the biggest reason why—such a fan of the pre-made templates, flexibility, and ease of use. The user interface and integration with other platforms are excellent for our business. In comparison to its rivals, it would rank at the top so far.
I honestly think that SalesLoft is a more complete solution as far as the user interface goes. However, Ring DNA has the added call intelligence feature that sales loft doesn't have, so we went with ring dna.
Overall, Revenue.io is a highly scalable platform that can adapt to the needs of businesses of varying sizes and industries. The program handles large volumes of data and users, making it suitable for companies with complex revenue management needs. Moreover, the cloud-based infrastructure allows the platform to scale up or down quickly based on changing business needs.
Prior to Hubspot, this was maybe 24 hours as an average. Now it is MINUTES. We immediately get back to clients and if we aren't able to then we will connect using email automation and sequences without lifting a finger. It's great!
Company Growth in difficult times:
Despite COVID causing issues on Residential Construction in Washington, we have continued to grow as a business, and part of that is thanks to our amazing Sales team, and part of that credit goings to Hubspot directly. If we didn't have Hubspot we would have shrunk or stayed the same as a company. Hubspot made sure we grew.
ROI [return on investment]
It's a hard thing to measure but our company has increased its revenue by more than 20% compared to last year. And that is saying a lot for our industry especially with COVID's impact on Residential Construction. I
can't measure it precisely but I know beyond any shadow of a doubt that HUBSPOT helped make this possible because our Sales and Marketing Teams are sharper and more capable than they have ever been thanks to this wonderful CRM.
