It enables reps to run unlimited parallel dialing—up to five lines at once—while automatically skipping bad numbers, answering machines, and navigating dial trees. With built-in caller ID, voicemail drop, CRM and SEP integrations, and a basic call library, it helps to ensure speedier dialing. Reps can leave voicemails automatically, take…

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 and Salesloft are both highly capable products. Our sales reps preferred the user interface and ease of use of Outreach. We evaluated Nooks and Orum to use as a supplement to Outreach's internal dialing capability to add parallel dialing capabilities, so our reps can …

Teams who work remote, Managers who want to listen to cold calls and coach someone live, or encourage a team member TO work with them in the same space.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
