Chose Salesloft
In reply, the LinkedIn integration was not free, although the overall cost was still lower than Salesloft. I can not compare Monday with Salesloft. Monday is a CRM
Agentforce has a lot of applications. We are using it in consulting to benchmark other clients, what they're doing, where we stand, how can we have better efficiencies coming in, et cetera. Those are the areas where it is doing exceptionally well. The area where we feel it can do much more better is maybe a market benchmark because it's been used across by so many players and it's a connected ecosystem. If Salesforce can have something where it gives me the market view of things, I can then benchmark rather than in my own universe to the broader university Salesforce and I know where I exactly stand and what more can I achieve, what's my final goalpost. So that would be something really great.
I find it to be the best resource for scheduling calls with clients. Specifically when the call includes multiple people using Salesloft, it's so simple and easy to use to send open times to client and then to be able to send active links to the client where with one click the calendar invite shows up on my calendar? it's the best most efficient tool I have in my toolbelt at the moment. When it comes to logging, it's also simple but I wish I could add a contact to SL from the Microsoft integration.
Would be nice to have custom reporting available. Coming from Salesforce, the included canned reports are useful but I like to roll my sleeves up and build exactly what I want.
Conversations will record meetings booked via MSTeams but requires the BDR/SDR to hit record. Other solutions (e.g. Chorus.ai) join as a participant and don't require a user hitting the "record" button. We have to change our flow to make this work and it is a bit clunky.
SalesLoft is absolutely VITAL to our daily operations. We could not function without it or a program like it. Speaking as a Sales Person who has had to operate without a product like this, the difference is night and day. The ability to stay organized, automate tasks, easily log activities and notes, review calls, and coach team members is an absolute gamechanger.
The platform offers an intuitive overall experience and the expected strong integration with other Salesforce existent tools. It has a low learning curve for new users on the commom use cases, such as intent classification, routing and knowledge-based answers. It could be improved with more transparency regarding to the AI decision logic.
Drift was extremely easy for both our demand gen team and SDR to jump right into. It was feature rich and purpose-built for marketers—it was remarkably easy to connect our marketing automation, CRM, and more to the platform and get everything to work together. Now the ability to create digital experiences and conversation landing pages is democratized—empowering our team to do better work and provide better prospect/customer experience.
The availability is pretty good, we do sometimes have errors or delays in syncing activities but nothing that has been too detrimental to our workflow. Most recently we had an issue with Lofting through Outlook due to a change in security token that took a few weeks to resolve but it is fixed now.
Yes timely and easy to use. The only delays we have are when we run our big month sales blitz and activities take some time to sync to the reporting as well as SalesForce
The support team was very responsive but at the end of the day they took a long time to fix our issue. The issue did get fixed, though, so that is what matters. Very nice people who are there to help in any way they can.
We had some virtual training with our CSM which was very well constructed. It took some time to get into the full swing of things but with a few weeks of hands on experience I was feeling confidant. The SL team was always available to answer questions or jump an a call to walk us through stuff. I also used the Customer Help Center for a few self guided learnings on how to use specific features related to reporting and team management.
We did evaluate the EVA bots, which are coming in market for Salesforce effectiveness. Those bots are good, but they're based out of very traditional use cases in the life sciences space. Agentforce is very, very advanced, right? Eva can talk about a typical sales rep coming in, logging in the day, log their entire day, and then probably having a simple text to reporting kind of a view. And that's it. Agentforce gives me a lot of insights, it gives me a lot of actionable insights. It uses its own brain. That's where Salesforce is an AI company. So we trust the Salesforce banner for it to innovate more and more, more and more. And that's where we chose Agentforce over.
Salesloft blows outreach out of the water in all aspects. One of the biggest issues I had was their unwillingness to listen to customer feedback. I had requested several small changes to be made when I had previously used the platform that unfortunately fell onto deff ears. I am much happier using Salesloft and the positive results I've experienced are a direct result of that.
I have been with a company that was using Salesloft, but moved to a competitor. I can't say it was exactly the competitors fault, as a lot of other internal changes were happening, (hence leaving the system that was working well), but we had the worst sales year in company history that year. Reps who consistently performed at or above quota were suddenly struggling to keep their pipelines in order, and the middle of the pack reps were going on PiPs and being let go.
Is it the dialer, or the leadership? You decide.
But the leadership also changed the dialer - so maybe it's both?
