Reviews
(126-150 of 156)Outreach is the Sales Intelligence Tool you should be using
- Analytics - Outreach keeps track of everything, which we love. I'm able to see how many emails my team is sending out, how their templates and sequences are working as far as open rates, click rates, and reply rates. This helps us make decisions for email campaigns in the future.
- Customer Service - Outreach has the best customer service out there, hands down! We've had similar tools in the past and one selling point for us was the dedicated account manager and training we received with Outreach. Support is always quick to answer questions and help us solve problems we're facing, while our Account Manager keeps us up-to-date with product updates and overall tips we can use to increase our performance.
- Sequences - We love using sequences at ExamSoft. Outreach gives users the flexibility to set up sequences by an exact date/time or by the length between activity. These have made the Inside Sales teams' life much easier!
- The Outlook Web Browser Plug-In - Outlook is a tough platform for companies to integrate with and Outreach has made tons of improvements here over the last year, but I would like to see continued improved with features and functionality. Specifically, a send later function.
- SalesForce Integration - We've had some issues this year with their SalesForce syncing and have had to make changes to the backend so these would work. Hopefully we've got them all fixed, but I would like to see an easier answer to these integration issues, and hopefully never have to deal with them!
Outreach Review from a simple salesman
- Organization
- Tracking opened emails and bounces
- Simplifying your work day
- Better communication with other tools like SalesForce
- Tasks could be a little more organized
Outreach Review
- Automates email prospecting to save time and resources
- Provides useful analytics that help determine effectiveness of messaging
- The dialer really helps making calls quicker and freeing up more time for other prospecting
- Greater ability to modify scheduled date of sequences
- Greater overview of notes from Salesforce.(I still have to go back and forth between the two more than I would like)
- The dialer can be slow at times.
Our sales team uses Outreach but they do not really prospect so it becomes more of a tool to just send emails.
Reaching out with Outreach
- Outreach does a good job of allowing users to use pre-written emails, snippets or templates for better time management
- Outreach is great at organizing with the Smart Views and Sort and Filter options
- 360 view gives users a great picture of the day/week they have ahead of them, so they're able to properly prepare
- My emails were delayed in sending, a technical problem on Outreach's end
- Reports are difficult to read/interpret
- Outreach is having trouble syncing calls to Salesforce
Overall a great product (with a short wishlist from a user)
- Automation - Outreach enables some automation of certain tasks. This makes it easy to set/forget items that can easily be forgotten otherwise.
- Scheduling of emails - there are times that I'm thinking of an email I need to send, but I don't want to send it right away. Outreach enables me to schedule the delivery for later. The interface and functionality are very easy to use.
- Bulk composing emails - the ability to pull automated fields to fill into emails when you need to send a similar email to multiple people. Makes it very easy to communicate to people, making it personalized and much more effective than a mass email.
- Mobile - I'm not aware of any functionality on mobile. Would love a mobile app to review my outbox, see what emails have been viewed, etc.
- Static window - with their new window mode, I'd love to be able to lock that window on the outbox to see in real-time what emails are being opened and what attachments and links are being clicked on.
Not great in automating (with flexibility) communication in scenarios of account management over the lifecycle of the customer.
Outreach Overview
- Automation of reoccurring emails
- Tracking of prospects right through the sales process
- Ease of use and navigation
- Reporting
- Sometimes it drops calls
- Great for using in a sales enviroment
Perfect for teams that invest in sales and product marketing
- Sequence/Cadence construction involving a multi-touch approach
- Prospect engagement
- Salesforce integration
- The Outreach University has great info on the technical aspects of the platform, but it'd be great to see more content around how they/others are using the platform successfully with examples!
- Automated outreach -- takes care of the entire job of outreach for you as a sales rep. No more Yesware or Boomerang.
- Awesome scheduling and gmail integration -- I work out of gmail primarily and it's nice to be able to access scheduling and prospect engagement through that.
- Keeps track of engagement so I can prioritize which prospects to add to further touches or call.
- Some issues with the outreach everywhere extension -- accessing the sidebar panel makes my browser window behave weirdly.
- The workflow for being able to access account information and sequence info from the prospect level could use some work-- some of it doesn't make any sense.
- Salesforce integration is a little clunky -- doesn't sync information over consistently.
Give it a go!
- open feed to let me know when people are opening up emails
- sequences and auto drips to make emailing a lot easier
- being able to better understand my daily metrics and contrast them to monthly
- the integration between Salesforce and outreach lags.
- cannot add in prospects that may have a duplicate email address, even after you delete the contact on SFDC
Awesome platform for communication and engagement!
- Great interface for communication. Gives one easy platform to call and email prospect. Also gives you a place to add URL of website and LInkedin profile.
- Provides a great way to see communication history. Makes it easy to see which emails have been opened and responded to, also which calls have connected. Proved a recording of the phone call.
- Provides options for sequences and super-sequence to automate tasks.
- It would be great to be able to merge accounts/prospects. As it stands I do not believe that is a function.
- It would be nice to be able to see an overall view of all communication from an account, to see who has engaged the most.
- It would be great to have a video recording interface!
I myself have challenges using Outreach to remind me to do specific things. I still rely on my calendar to remind me about specific, important tasks.
Great UI, customization, but trouble integrating
- Accessibility
- Color scheme and user-friendly
- Ability to send a large amount of emails at once
- Scheduling emails appropriately and the difference between sending and scheduling
- Calls drop all the time
- The app is tough to work with chrome (crashes a lot)
Less suited: high call volume (call drops all the time), advanced sequence creation and full customizing of sequence steps for specific sales prospecting.
Outreach-Great for task automation and making local calls. Comes with one or two glitches...
- Automated Emails
- Email open and forward tracking
- Manual call and email tasks
- Syncing with Gmail
- Overlay screen can take up a lot of loading time
- Uploading contacts from Salesforce to Outreach could be easier
- To my understanding, there is no way of uploading contacts via a spreadsheet
Automated Sequences are great.
Less appropriate for calling someone you already know because local presence seems sketchy.
Outreach Review
- Automation
- Tasks
- Sequences
- Difficult to edit a sequence once it has started
Outreach Review
- Schedule emails
- Hide phone numbers
- Link to Salesforce
- The feed of who opens emails and tracking should be improved
- Support in terms of training
- Alternating call numbers and more global access
My first year recap with Outreach!
- The simple layout
- Ability to customize to individuals preferences
- Intelligence available to me in preparation to a phone call
- Your support team has always been quick to respond and very helpful
- The new update (Outreach Everywhere) is a pain point for me and I am not a fan. I would appreciate the ability to switch back to how it once was.
- Throughout my day, I have to keep refreshing outreach so the error "VOIP Device not connected" stops coming up.
- I'll make a call and it says I'm live but I hear nothing. I'll hang up and refresh outreach and it will start working again. This is randomized and quite frustrating as prospects call me back and say "did you call?"
- Seeing that I have to use Outreach everywhere. Every time I open it it will shrink my page to a small box. When I exit Outreach everywhere it will perform the same function. I work on three screens and I don't know what the trigger is but at times my screens will slide different directions. If this is a bug please fix it. If i'm doing something wrong, please help me.
Outreach at a glance
- Breaking into new companies. I can customize my messages but also send a generic message to multiple users.
- Account Management. I use Outreach to help manage my life cycle of my current accounts.
- I would like to see Outreach create an email finder for organizations I am breaking into.
Outreach is the best tool for any Sales Team!
- Campaigns - you can create sequences with your own detailed messaging and set up exactly how often you want to reach out to someone.
- Integrations with Salesforce - very simple to have both systems working in tandem. Makes it easy to import and export contacts and accounts.
- Task Setting - one click of a button and you can set a task trigger for another time in the future. It allows you to populate the task with notes so that way people don't slip through the cracks.
- Mass emails - if you send too many emails the system sometimes can't handle it.
- Sometimes it can be a cumbersome process to bring in new accounts or get rid of old prospects/accounts. Doesn't let you do so on a mass level.
Outreaching the competition
- Outreach is great for building sequences, which allows us to standardize on a best practice for communicating various messages.
- It is so helpful in providing insight into what is working and what isn't.
- It's tremendously reassuring to me as a manager to know that all my reps are sending the right messaging and following through consistently.
- I think the manager-level reporting could be a little more intuitive. As it is, the reporting seems to be done primarily at a user level.
- Would love to see a simple way to sift through the sequences when looking to add someone to a sequence.
Fast, efficient, quality Outreach.
- Outreach sequences with a good cadence and a variety of different touches are great.
- Identifying successful outreach techniques within the team is easy and then duplicating them for other team members is easy.
- Integration with LinkedIn was helpful but needed improvement . I wish they had improved it instead of deprecating it.
- Outreach still has some bugs eg sometimes clicking send on an email doesn't work but they don't have error messages.
V efficient
- Easy to navigate through their website
- The variety of different features they provide
- Level of control
- When sequencing or logging onto Outreach, the entire screen will pop up in this bright purple color and it kind of hurts my eyes
- When sequencing, giving us the option to switch someone over to a different sequence easily
- Allowing us to incorporate our own personalized signatures that include photos
I never have to worry about forgetting to follow up with someone, finding emails, and tracking my emails. I especially like how we're able to see whether the recipient opened the email or not and how Outreach records that data.
Outreach IO review
- Helps with sales automation
- Sequences allow my team to send emails at scale with minimal work.
- Allows us to follow up within specific time frames.
- Allows us to see insight into whether the user has opened the email.
- the UI is a bit clunky and not easy to get to the reporting tab
- has issues with syncing mail boxes
- cumbersome with it comes to uploading prospect lists.
Outreach does it all!
Outreach enables our sales development team to create tailored contact strategies to follow-up with outbound or inbound leads. The level of control and granularity in the options allows for a great way of configuring the solution. However, the many options can also hamper people that are just starting in the role or overwhelm people who are not that tech-savvy.
- Great level of control to create your perfect touch campaign
- Bi-directional sync with Salesforce.com to sync accounts/contacts/leads => saves SDRs a TON of time!
- Very responsive support team
- Too many options/menus/settings can confuse less experienced users.
- Lots of issues if not set up properly.
- Needs some setup time to get the sync with Salesforce.com off the ground.
Client Outreach?
- Detailed metrics for tracking individual success and team success
- Catches duplicates and can link with certain CRMs
- Great UI and easy to manage
- Email alerts for certain tasks could be improved. The current setup sends one email bundled with all recent activity but it would be nice to change these settings for more detailed alerts.
- Pausing sequences can get complicated for holidays or specific time frames. There can be errors where I cannot restart a paused sequence.
An all in one tool for your sales team
- Task management
- Sequences
- SFDC connection
- An easier way to add prospects to another step in a sequence
- Removing a prospect from a sequence then adding them to another sequence without having to wait for 24 hrs
- Recording calls
All about Outreach

- Outreach provides great analytics on the open rates and interaction of the recipient and our content.
- Outreach tells you when to follow up by prioritizing the individuals with the most activity.
- The platform can be a bit slow to react.
