Troops is a sales pipeline tool that uses artificial intelligence to enable users to configure Salesforce reports, set up notifications and alerts, and search for and edit Salesforce records from within Slack. Examples of companies using Troops include Square, Flexport, Looker, InVision, and HubSpot.
I can easily see if there is communication occurring between the sales rep and the appropriate contacts at the prospect company. I can quickly see if the communication stream is a mutual back and forth conversation or if it is mostly a one-way stream from the rep to the prospect. If it is mostly a one-way conversation, this tells me something isn't right about this opportunity.
The system looks at this communication and using AI, it highlights if it interprets any negative sentiment from the prospect allowing the rep or the sales manager to dig deeper into the opportunity and see if they can discover the reason for this negative response and correct it if possible.
The software "learns" from previous successful deals we have closed and uses this information to alert us if a deal has been in a particular sales stage for longer than similar deals. And it learns who is the business decision maker or technical decision maker is for previously closed deals and points it out to the rep that they should make contact with this same position in the target company.
The software coaches sales reps on actions that should be taken, based on our sales process, at each stage of the sales cycle. And it does so without feeling like its looking over your shoulder, by recommending the rep send a "confirmation of needs" email once the deal is moved into the 30% stage.
Troops does a great job of bringing efficiency to the workplace. I am able to jump right to certain deals and learn details of the deals that are coming in straight from Slack. Getting all that info quickly and all in one place has been crucial for our team.
Troops does an awesome job of notifying me when signals are shown in my accounts. It lets me focus my attention on the more important accounts, and helps me find what accounts are in the news.
One thing I would like is more customization regarding the notifications I receive. Letting a user make edits to the certain notifications they get could be nice.
Troops opens a new tab/browser every time I click on a new lead. It makes things difficult to organize with multiple tabs open.
Positive. We have better insights into our deals. We can see when deals are getting bogged down, or when a deal may not close, even before the sales rep recognizes this.
It makes it much easier to accurately call your monthly and quarterly forecasts.
Our sales managers use it for their weekly one-on-one meetings with their rep and virtually no additional work is required of the rep or manager.
