    Outreach
    Outreach is very useful for all aspects of work organization. I can keep my tasks organized and complete them quickly and efficiently. I'd like to see an app-based tracking feature to keep my tasks up-to-date with reminders, which would make things much more efficient and eliminate the need to constantly check the website. Outreach es muy útil en todo lo que refiere a organización de trabajo, puedo mantener un orden de actividades y me permite completarlas de manera ágil y rápida. Quisiera un seguimiento desde aplicativo para tener siempre al dia las tareas con recordatorios lo que haría mucho más eficiente y así no ingresar todo el tiempo a la pagina This review was originally written in Spanish and has been translated into English using a third-party translation tool.

    In my experience, a lot of the times Verint Speech and Text Analytics is going to be the cheapest solution and this would be a good reason for a Business that does NOT currently have any solution whatsoever to get in at the cheaper price point. I think Verint does things well for a company that has not been in another solution that does it better. And Verint Speech and Text Analytics has a lot of areas that it can help business with that have not been in a different solution

    Pros
    Outreach
    • Outreach is great at managing my data to day tasks and reminders for next steps with prospects
    • The click to dial works great from Salesforce, and I love the integration with Salesforce where I can upload contacts into Outreach to start a sequence
    • Outreach Kaia is perfect to capture calls and search provide actionable next steps. I also like going in and listening to other reps calls
    • I like the overview section for reports where I can see how I am doing compared to my peers. Especially on all metrics
    • The accounts tab is great to see at a glance which accounts have had the most engagement

    • One of the things that I find extremely beneficial about Verint Speech Analytics is the transcription. Sometimes you have an hour call, an hour and a half call, and you don't have time to listen to an hour and a half call. The beauty is that we can find the transcription and then we can look in it. It specifies where if you look in the interaction details in the back of the call, you can actually see the transcription. You can see it'll identify where in the call, what line at what timestamp did that call hit your category and with what string, with what term did it hit. And that is extremely beneficial. And we're trying to go through and find those little points of, sometimes they're points of abrasion, sometimes there are things that are going really well. I love that we have a transcription. I love that we can also see the screens that is vital because a lot of times, and again, not that we're trying to find something bad, but the reality is in any industry, there's in any call center environment, should I say, there's call avoidance. There's always going to be some agents, it's just in any call center, in any industry, it happens.
    • Or sometimes our agents are just struggling. And if you see in real life, for example, a very high silence time, when we notice a trend, we'll start going into those calls and actually looking at those screens and seeing, is silence time call avoidance or could it be the agents are having difficulty utilizing the resources? Are the resources not clear? Is that what the delay is? Are they having trouble trying to find the answer? And a lot of times we found that too. We found they're searching and clicking and searching and clicking and it's because they just didn't know where to go. So that is a coaching opportunity. And sometimes it's a coaching opportunity, not so much in a positive way because they're purchasing things from Amazon. But I think, like I said, that's inherent in any call center environment. I do find the screens, the transcription, the trend analysis that's available within speech, there are so many things I could literally sit here and talk to you for quite some time.
    • We love it. And I'm even more excited personally now because I learned so much, as I was saying, about being in the cloud and being in that open-source environment where all of these enhancements that Verint has. And they're so often that they enhance their products and their offering now these little bots and AI to help with all of these different aspects, but that's only available if you're in the cloud and the open source. So there's a lot of benefit in being in prem, in net platform, which is where we are. And we were able to provide a lot of meaningful insight and guidance into a lot of different pain points in the company. But I anticipate, and I have full confidence, that we'd be a much more effective team once we're able to move into the cloud. So I'm very hopeful for that. I'm anticipating what else we could discover.

    Cons
    Outreach
    • The Salesforce-to-Outreach connection can be weak if a record is converted; Outreach holds onto stake values.
    • Outreach can be hard for new hires to grasp, ongoing training in platform would help.
    • Customization in report views from Salesforce into outreach could be enhanced.

    • Automated scrubbing of PCI and PII data from transcription transcripts and recordings. Using AI to detect the payment screens in a real time manner vs having to program triggers.
    • Easier way to bulk export transcriptions and recordings for our legal teams.

    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.

    Usability
    Outreach
    It's not as simple as it used to be -- getting pretty bloated, and I'm not a fan of the UI. I think it could be a far more usable product (and indeed, at one point it was) if the most important things for a seller were the most prominent. Take cold emailing, for example: the window where messages are being composed is tiny, and it's frustrating to use—maybe that's just me, though.

    Easy to use, the language model can be custom-tuned to your company's specific lingo and terms. It also has great front-end reporting and ease of back-end custom reports and integrations to the rest of the Verint ecosystem. This is a one-stop shop for great insights and a stepping stone to much more.

    Reliability and Availability
    Outreach
    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.

    Performance
    Outreach
    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.

    Support Rating
    Outreach
    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.

    They're not direct competitors, but they share many of the same functionalities. Gong has a greater focus on spoken communications, such as calls and demos, rather than emails. I think Gong also has stronger AI capabilities at the moment. However, I don't believe so, Gong would be ideal for prospecting and mass outreach, as Outreach is. Outreach is more suitable for exploration and outbound communications management, whereas Gong is better suited for deal and pipeline management and analysis.

    We did not have anything like this before but we did go through a long review and found out no other company had everything we needed. With our security and technology department we did decide that this was the best product for our business. Have all great thing to say and would recommend this to everyone

    Return on Investment
    Outreach
    • Increase in meetings booked
    • Increase in call metrics as it is easy to make more calls using Outreach features. Basically cutting down admin work time before the call.
    • Prospect journey and experience has been a positive flowing through a set amount of emails and calls rather than just being blasted with random emails. Helps BDRS stay focused on more important parts of the job.
