Orum is especially well-suited for companies that have high top-of-funnel activity metrics. High-velocity and high-volume sales are more easily facilitated by Orum. Orum is especially useful for industries where cold calling still means conversion. Orum is a must-have in any early-stage startup's tech stack.

• Call quality is usually good
• The recordings and transcriptions are helpful
• The lobby set up is a great system to collab/talk to coworkers

Incentivized

• Streamlines the dialing process. Reps can easily move from dialing one prospect to the next.
• Easily integrates with Outreach & Salesforce to ensure the correct data is fed to the correct Rep at the correct time.
• Gives our leadership the ability to listen & coach on live calls
• Easily manage users within the app - licensing and permissions are simple.

Incentivized

• Easier access to previous call data if you have connected with the prospect before
• LinkedIn more accurately updated and accessible
• recommended next steps based on call disposition

Incentivized

• Calls get cut off more regularly than I would expect. I am not sure if that is an issue on Orum's end, but I don't think it is a network issue either so I am not sure why.
• In the search lists, it would be nice if we could add favorite cadences or separate by our own.

Nooks is very user friendly and intuitive, especially after the recent update. it integrates seamlessly with other tools in the tech stack and communicates almost instantly. If you were to run into issue, the Nooks support team are fast to address and resolve. Also, Nooks reps are always open to trainings and refreshers on the platform.

Very easy to pick up and use. I was involved in the trial phase all the way through to implementation, and actually defined the internal Orum process for the company. Given my involvement I was very hands on and involved in training the bulk of the team, and found that many if not all users picked the tool up very quickly and it was very easy to document the process due to the usability. The only sticking point tended to be the CRM integration for loading in contacts to lists as this was a little bit fiddly, however the actual tool is super easy to use

Incentivized

I have not needed to interact with their support team yet, so I cannot give a valid response. So far, their tool is simple and straightforward to use.

We used to use Orum but decided to switch due to the number of issues we would see whether it was with connect rates, dial to connect times, and the amount of technical difficulties. Nooks outperforms Orum in every aspect especially around the reporting and analytics as Nooks goes into much more detail.

Incentivized

I have both Orum and Outreach but use Orum for instances where I need to call at scale. Outreach is designed for one-off calls but does not have nearly the breadth and quality of resources for dialing at scale that Orum does.

Incentivized

• Positive: Connect rates and 60 second conversations held
• Positive: More meeting conversion from calls (still dominant via email)
• Negative: I think more NAMER regions experience it but it has to do with Gong Engage functionality like with wrong dispositions

Incentivized

• As a BDR, setting meetings is how I get most of my Bonus, and Orum has allowed me to do this more easily by reaching more prospects
• Whereas before I may only be able to make 500 calls a week if I really grinded, I can make 1,000+ calls a week using Orum even easier
• Orum's masking of my number has allowed me to get on the phone with folks that had seemingly been ghosting me for months, which has allowed me to grow my business
