PersistIQ vs. Salesloft

PersistIQ is well suited for outbound marketing. It's great for setting up sales and marketing campaigns to new and prospective clients. The fact that PersistIQ emails are basic (they look like normal personal emails) and easy to personalize, makes the whole process feel more genuine than, say, MailChimp. PersistIQ won't replace a bulk emailing tool or CRM. It serves a different purpose than, for example, Marketo or MailChimp, two products we also use

Organizations with budget and proper support resources will be able to best leverage the benefits of SalesLoft. Earlier stage organizations with bootstrap budgets would still benefit from SalesLoft, albeit, I personally feel that without the proper RevOp's resources, that SalesLoft potentially loses a bit compared to Outreach.io

• Integrates well with tools that work with LinkedIn Sales Navigator to scrap lead emails.
• Makes it easy to manage large-scale cold email campaigns with 3+ steps.
• When a prospect replies to an email, it doesn't send them any of the automated emails which allow me to follow-up with those warm leads correctly.

Incentivized

• The use of cadences allows my team to quickly process calls that have been prequalified by our filters in Salesforce
• The live call coaching with "drop in" capability has been useful for quality checking the calls, while allowing us to steer a call in a particular direction if necessary

• I wish there was a way to send more than 1,000 emails per day.
• If it had more integrations with data scrapers or ways to add new leads it would be much better.
• I'd like a way to go deeper into a lot of my stats on various emails.

Incentivized

• Calendaring -- specifically ensuring credit is properly aligned when trying to calendar for sellers as a BDR -- even when using a booking/ calendar availability link (a seller's link -- this is the trouble spot from what I recall and why we can't use some of the helpful link scheduling tools in our org).
• Would love to set up some report automation on the management side -- where specific things could be sent to me (e.g., I would love to set up a report that would auto-populate to show how many dials were completed during a power-hour/blitz period that would hit my alerts in the UI or be sent to email/Slack automatically).
• A manager-specific view/home screen would be nice but not essential.

The renewal really depends on who the client is. SalesLoft works for some clients better than others.

SalesLoft is a fantastic product that will be extremely helpful to any Sales Rep looking to organize their information and stay one step ahead. While it has its shares of quirks and bugs it proves to be an awesome tool for anyone that is in the sales industry.

Terrible; non-existent. Weeks without replies, and no improvements in 4 months.

We decided on PersistIQ because it was cheaper than the incumbents and as we were starting we wanted to see if this would be helpful or relevant to us. We later discovered Apollo.io and we might switch to them as they are also cheap and look better, but we might also get back to manual emailing and Linkedin connecting.

We switched from InsideSales Playbooks to SalesLoft. Salesloft is much easier to use and more intuitive. We had previously used Inside SalesPlaybooks before they changed their name just so we had the powerdialer plug in in Salesforce then tried implementing PlayBooks and it was a bit cumbersome and not intuitive. We evaluated a few others but SalesLoft was the best choice!

• Using PersistIQ has allowed us to engage more people more quickly than other outbound processes. So, more leads.
• We're able to understand message performance more rapidly and readily having used PersistIQ.
• PersistIQ has improved our bottom line by getting us more leads. So, increased ROI.

Incentivized

• Our sales activities are very predictable and we know how much effort to focus on certain leads.
• SalesLoft also gives us supporting metrics for individual productivity - we use activity metrics to supplement attainment metrics.
• Our SDRs have a much wider reach and can process more leads which saves them time and keeps them targeted on the best leads.
