Outreach trumps SalesLoft -- and works exactly as advertised
My entire Inside Sales organization uses Outreach as a prospecting tool. It allows us to increase the quality and quantity of our prospecting touches in less overall time.
- Outreach Voice - I've never had any technical issues with the phone quality or service. Local area codes increases pickup rates too.
- Sequences - we run our entire business off of these and the flexibility and options here are awesome.
- Reporting - I gain insights that allow me to strategically direct my team going forward to continuously improve productivity.
- I'd like to see even more advanced reporting.

Weaponize your Pipeline Engine
We use Outreach for our BD, AE, and Success teams.
Primarily, we are using it for cold outreach sequences, and it's made a huge impact on our pipeline creation. We've easily tripled pipeline since implementing 4 months ago, and no other sales engagement platform comes close to the phenomenal visibility and control Outreach offers. Best in class Salesforce integrations, smart OOO auto-detection, and dynamic fields will revolutionize your inside sales game.
As a bonus, onboarding new hires is a cinch because the playbooks are ready to go. My newest hire booked a cold meeting on her first day.

- Sequences - Organize all the steps you want to take and deploy from one workflow. LinkedIn, Calls, Texts, Emails, and Voicemails all from one platform.
- Triggers - Automate the ridiculous busy work clogging up your salespeople's lives - I have a trigger that "reads" titles and puts them in the appropriate persona-based sequence. Magic.
- SFDC bi-directional sync. Seriously better than anything I've seen. So good.
- Still working out the kinks with LinkedIn Sales Navigator activities.
- Triggers and Rulesets - powerful but tricky to master. Not for the faint of heart - you'll need someone who wants to embrace Outreach to harness its power.

Outreach - The Standard for Sales Automation
Outreach is used by our 2 AEs and 1 SDR. Outreach enables our reps to collaborate on templates for personas, set cadences, and improve our overall outbound process.
- Outbound Email Sequences. Can create private or shared outbound sequences.
- Tracking inbound and outbound emails in SFDC. This is a big one for us, I wanted a tool to autolog all emails between a rep and prospect without the rep having to do it manually.
- Built in reporting
- There is definitely some up front work with onboarding and implementation. Fortunately Outreach has a great online resource library to address any issues.

Powerful Sales Automation
Outreach is used by the Sales Team (Account Executives, Sales Development Reps, and Product specialists) in both a pre and post sales capacity. It allows users to save time from a communication standpoint.
- Multi-touch sequencing of sales activity
- Integration with Salesforce
- Nice dashboards and reporitng
- Impressive release schedule
- Inability to change the order of steps in a sequence if the sequence is active is difficult

Outreach is an Expansive Prospecting Tool
Outreach is used primarily by our inbound and outbound business development reps. We use it on the outbound side to cold prospect into our targeted companies and on the inbound side to follow up on our marketing leads. Outreach allows us to manage a large volume of prospects and for both teams, while also allowing us access to great reporting functionality. With the tool, we can see exactly how our reps are performing at a very granular level.
- Outreach integrates well with Domo, which allows us to put together comprehensive reports pulling data from both Salesforce and Outreach.
- Outreach does a great job of supporting you, by offering a responsive CSM and support team to troubleshoot issues.
- It doesn't take too much time to onboard new users in the basic functionality of the tool.
- I would like to see better customization between global rules and team rules. When you manage more than one team in the tool, it can be hard to fine tune the permissions for each team. There are some global settings that I would like to move to the team settings instead to help with this.
- I would like to see more customization options when it comes to building rulesets and triggers. The addition of time-based triggers would help us out a lot by moving prospects to a certain stage after a certain amount of inactivity.

Outreach - Simple and Efficient
From day one, Outreach has been an integral tool that helps me manage my workflow on a day-to-day basis. It structures my tasks and helps to avoid starting friction involved with prospecting as I reach out to potential clients throughout my region. It provides a great way to track details of individual points of communication and any other information found on accounts/prospects.
- Calls - VOIP works well and reduces the amount of time I spend on tracking calls and moving on to the next call.
- Ease of use - everything is pretty intuitive. The information is there at your fingertips and if you can't figure something out, there are tutorials to walk you to where you need to go.
- My daily sales stack requires the structure Outreach provides. Couldn't be as effective without it!
- I'd like to see data better organized from an account level. When I'm speaking to an individual, I find it useful to see what kind of activity has been completed on a higher, account level, so that I can reference that in the conversation.
August 22, 2018
Easy tool to increase productivity
Outreach is an easy to use tool that allows account execs to touch multiple accounts quickly and actually tracks activity on sales campaigns.
- High email volume deliverability
- Easy targeted campaigns and templates
- Prospecting made simple
- Creating bulk sequences, prospects, and tags
- Sharing prospect information company wide or between account managers
August 22, 2018
More Dials, Less Time
Outreach started in our Business Development Team, then the Sales Team and has now also rolled out to our Customer Success Team. It helps us manage our accounts and develop a strategic plan for prospecting. It is also great to have a more user-friendly place to take notes than Salesforce.
- Organize daily tasks, calls and email
- Prioritize your day around responsive prospects
- Ability to create tasks from outbox
- Color coded activities
- Ability to designate and track top 10 accounts

The only system your SDR team will ever need
We use Outreach as the main platform for our Sales Development Reps. At least 90% of the company is exclusively in Outreach and the only ones that remain in Salesforce are those that are full cycle sales execs or there are client requirements.
It solves a lot of business issues, among them are the issues with reps wasting time sending emails, researching, planning out their day, losing prospects to the funnel due to poor follow up, email tracking, A/B testing etc. The list goes on and on.
- Automating emails and using mail merge field to make custom emails
- A/B Testing
- Saving time by providing all the necessary data in one spot
- Process Automation
- Integration with Salesforce on the Account level could use some refinement
- The Dialer is not the best but it isn't required.

Outreach efficiency
Outreach is being used primarily by sales development and account executives. Giving the ability to assign tasks and store templates, the tool alleviates the need for constantly referring back to other shared storage spaces which saves many clicks.
- Ease of use
- Can be easily integrated across platforms
- Streamlines the process of prospecting
- Issues with opting prospects out of emails even if being imported for the first time
- Sequence/template clean-up could be simpler
- Issues with VOIP are more frequent than desired

Outreach is building my pipe!
Outreach is being used by our organization in prospecting for new business as well as to work with current customers and get them to events or do more regular follow ups that would be very hard to find time for without this great tool for customized automation. It enables me to put together as many different types of templated conversations, set someone in them and forget, until the next follow up is due for them. So they never actually get forgotten, but my mind is free to get out and do a whole lot more good.
- Easy to import into Outreach
- Easy to build out sequences to use for repeated outreach
- Easy to set tasks with individuals, very customized
- When you import new contacts into Outreach, it would be nice if it allowed you to easily upload these into Salesforce, which it says it can do, but I've never found it to work right
- Would be nice if you could modify the tasks orders in a sequence even after you've put contacts into it

Increase Production and Efficiency
I found that outreach was a terrific tool to automate the sales process of reaching out and increase the production of the members of the sales team. With the sequences within outreach, you are able to completely streamline activities so nothing goes by the wayside. I recommend for anybody interested in trying to increase the efficiency of the business and sales team.
- Creating an automated outreach path
- Create different personas
- Lets you automatically send emails
- House templates
- Google Chrome extension needs significant improvement
- Can't always see when someone see's your email
- Take back some restrictions within sequences

Outreach Review
Outreach is being used by the customer success department at Asana for all customer email outreach whether scheduled or manual.
- Support is great.
- Blockers put in place to reduce customer frustration with emails such as - unsubscribed, recent touchpoints or repeated touchpoints.
- UI is a little confusing, I definitely struggled with on-boarding.
- Sharing and collaborating with your team feels like it should be easier.
- I feel like there are hidden features that I wish were better explained in the product - ex: snippets.
- Having to log everyone as prospects first and then sending emails feels tedious - why can't I send an email to a list of email addresses?
February 09, 2018
Outreach is AWESOME
Used to email prospects, set up templates, sequences, and canned responses. Huge time saver!
- Sequencing - Drip Marketing
- Task management
- Snippets/Canned Responses
- at times can be clunky
- as a user, limited by admin to edit templates
- not much to complain about, great tool!

A Beginner SDR Utilizes Outreach to Manage Success.
Outreach is used by multiple departments at this organization, everyone takes part in sales someway or another so having a tool that can manage communication with clients and prospects is essential. Outreach allows multiple departments to manage their communication efforts to clients and prospective clients.
- Outreach is excellent at organizing my pipeline communication, in a few clicks I can see a simple overview of my call/email campaign with specific prospects.
- Outreach does a great job of managing the communication with my prospects, it gives me great insight into how my emails are received on the other end, as well as the ability to add notes onto a call. Takes away the pain of having to review for 10 minutes before every call, review time can be cut down to 30 seconds.
- From an engineering standpoint, Outreach seems to be easily customized to my team's certain campaign desires. The A/B test feature is also awesome, allows for a quick glance at the success of specific campaigns against each other!
- The learning curve to Outreach can be difficult unless a team has an Outreach guru some features often go unnoticed.
- Occasionally calls will drop and recordings are not found, but this happens few times day to day.
- When campaigns are heavily customized some of the more simple features of Outreach tend to experience issues, for instance when a prospect was marked finished in a sequence, the next day they still received another email or I was tasked to call them once more.

Outreach, as reviewed by an SDR
Only in the sales organization, and helps out sales staff track and engage clients. It helps our sales staff keep track of the client sales process and creates a unified way to approach our sales strategy.
- Email tracking
- Creating a uniform process to the sales process
- Gives measurable statistics for the individual user all the way up to the C-Level Suite.
- Sequences can be tedious and easy to mess up if adjustments aren't thought through.
- I wish there was a pipeline integration to outreach
- At times Outreach can have latency issues
February 06, 2018
Double your opps with Outreach
Outreach is currently used by every member of our global sales organization. From BDRs to Sales execs. It allows us to be a lot more productive as every day when we come in it tells us what tasks we have to achieve.
- Organise prospects in tiered levels (CEO down to marketing exec)
- Organises your day efficiently
- Allows you to plan for the week ahead
- It is quite slow at times.
- It sends out emails in different fonts.
February 06, 2018
Not another SDR review
- For e-mail prospecting
- Helps to organize our daily outreaches to prospects
- Helps to organize our daily outreaches to prospects
- Create different sequences, Use of snippets + share best practices between colleagues based on what others use and what is successful
- Analytics (views + clicks)
- E-mail integration (gmail)
- Calendar integration (possibility for tasks to pop up in google calendar)
- Flexibility in the workflow (more manageable overview of tasks,)
- Auto-populate when capturing profile from Linkedin (lose so much time with manually typing in info)
- More variation on manual task (choose specific categories: LI e-mail // LI- FUP // webinar invite // phone call // ...)
February 06, 2018
Outreach - great for SDRs, not so much for AEs
Outreach is a great asset for our SDR team but not really that useful for the Accounts team because it keeps assigning emails to the wrong deals. The logic for assigning communications to deals is the same as what you get with bcc to Salesforce so there's not much value there.
- Lining up a cadence of emails
- Organizing call behavior in support of emails
- Improving logic for assigning sent emails to deals
- Better ability to work with LinkedIn
February 05, 2018
Outreach the best time saver and most effective email tool available
Outreach is being used by our sales development team and sales team to do outreach on a larger scale and to align and track analytics for our managers to see and evaluate activities.
- Email tracking
- Organising the pipeline, see where your prospects are in the stage
- Mass outreach, but with possibilities to personalize the messages
- Email finder functionality, automatically find email adresses to the prospect
- Automatically give alerts when person has visited our website to looked up information....similar to the Engagio tool
I'm not 100% sure if it's used by other departments, but I'm pretty sure Outreach is only used by our sales team. It allows us to keep track of our leads and prospects by creating tasks to follow up, sequence templates to assign, and overall reports/stats on our messages. On a high level, it saves us a lot of time in regards to organizing and keeping accountable with our prospects - instead of manually doing everything, Outreach helps us to track and follow up. We also use Outreach via mobile to call others, so instead of having a separate phone, we can use ours with a different number.
- Following up tasks - instead of manually tracking everything, we can create follow up sequences and make sure we're consistently checking in our leads.
- Sequence templates - useful to create more personalized sequence messages that can be used for multiple prospects directly.
- Syncing with Salesforce - automatically updating lead statuses & info so we don't have to do them manually & separately each time.
- So slow - Outreach (especially as of late) has been extremely slow and laggy. Takes forever to put leads into sequences or update.
- Calling - been multiple glitches when I try to call someone, and OR hangs up the phone by itself.
- Salesforce sync - glad it does that, but there's a lot of times when I still have to manually input things, even after change it on Outreach.

Great overall products, stong with call functions, highly recommend it across all sales teams
We use Outreach predominantly to make phone calls for the sales department. We make calls to 100+ countries and it allows us to use local numbers to make calls without being seen as a predatory sales call. It allows us to streamline our sales pipeline and us to effectively carry out through our daily tasks. It has a great system for organizing lead and contact information which makes the salesperson's job easy to manage. We use Outreach with around 60 people within our organization and Outreach's template and sequence functions allow the well-performing sequences to circulate around the organization for everyone to benefit from. When I first began at the company, I didn't have a much prior experience in the sector, therefore reading others' templates allowed me to significantly improve my fundamental knowledge in sales. Outreach is a great tool for managing your sales and customer relations, I would recommend it to all my colleagues across different sectors.
- Sequences and templates, it has various variables that can be used to insert customer info inside of a message template
- Dialing with local country codes, it allows a salesperson to appear like a local folk to the customer
- Task generation, it always keeps you on par by informing to contact a lead at the right time.
- Interface is too colorful and difficult to navigate
- Allowing to create graphs using custom metrics would be nice
- Ability to integrate with tools from the outside would be highly useful

Outreach is Great - Best we've used to date.
The sales and market development teams use Outreach. It allows these teams to be more strategic with their prospecting and operational workflows. It holds AEs and MDRs accountable for the strategic approach implemented by our institution.
- A/B Testing. Our previous tool didn't allow for that.
- Managing handoffs from Market Dev to sales. Outreach allows for a smooth handoff.
- Clean UI, other tools we used in the past had similar features but were not designed in a usable fashion. It is clear Outreach cares about UX.
- Reporting is the biggest need for improvement. Data is power and I would like to have more insight into how each campaign is going. More data on teams, tags, etc.
- Sometimes Outreach gets unsynced from Gmail. It seems to happen less now but for a while there it was a friction point for our Org.
- Have a more seemless way of adding content assets. Sometimes snippets are hard to use. It turns collateral to attachments frequently rather than embedding it in an email.
February 02, 2018
Reach out with Outreach!
We use Outreach to make calls and sequence prospects. It is also used by our marketing research team to gather prospects. I also use it to keep track of tasks and queues. I like the fact that it can make calls to almost every country and the fact that you can use local numbers.
- Local numbers for international calling
- Robust reporting and analytics
- Simple interface
- Sequences and sequence steps need to be more flexible
- Call quality is not the best
- Too much purple visually
February 02, 2018
Make Outreach your tool for Personalization and Automation
Outreach is being used by our entire sales operation. It helps my team with email and task automation so we can get more done in less time. I also helps with collaboration between users for different sequences that might be working better then others. Additionally, we are using the calendar tool and it has been very helpful.
- Automation
- Personalization
- Flexibility
- Time Management
- Opts people out of email automatically if a duplicate email is input
- Reports aren't overly user-friendly
- There could be more things that are customizable
