Outreach automates valuable tasks that would take an incredible amount of time if done manually. It makes it easy to prospect into accounts, build pipeline, and ensure the messaging we're using is the kind of messaging that our marketing team wants us to use to have the best chance at finding opportunities
  • Task automation
  • Task reminders
  • Automating messaging
  • Keeping track of prospects
  • Customer support
  • Clunky UI
Outreach is best suited for a small team that can take the time to set it up properly to use it within your systems to its full advantage. As sales teams get larger, Outreach becomes harder and harder to maintain/control, so for larger sales teams I would recommend either spending a lot of time on Outreach and ensuring it's set up exactly how you need it, or look at another tool

we used Outreach as our main platform for sales outreach for the business development & account executive teams to organize and streamline the outbound process. We also used Outreach to help with event invites and follow up to keep the sales teams on track of all attendees and the most important people to follow up with.
  • cold call organization
  • sequencing
  • sales follow up
  • local dialer capability
  • allow people to be in more than one cadence
  • better tracking of "hot contacts"
  • better home page organization
Outreach is well suited for any team with a big focus on outbound sales. For organizations that are mostly relying on inbound and marketing responses, Outreach may be more robust than the team needs. Outreach can level up your teams outbound game by having all contacts & accounts in the same place to simplify your outbound sales process.

For the sales team, we use it for setting cadence email sequences to not only track emails being sent but having that flow that sends different messages after the initial one, based on the recipient's actions. So whether it was open and not responded or not opened, etc. Those actions would trigger what the follow up message would be.
  • Tracks open rate
  • Sends follow up emails based on if the email was opened or not
  • Analytics
  • I would like more reporting
For a sales person, it works great in making my job easier when it comes to tracking and following up. When I am doing cold "calling" emails, I can send out 50 in a day if not more. What's great with Outreach is that it can do automatic following up based on the time duration I give (4 days, 1 week, 1 month, etc.) to send a follow up email and if the email was opened, it would get one email, if it wasn't a different email would be sent.

Outreach is one of the top choices you can pick for an enablement tool for your team. I used Outreach back for a few years at my previous company. Outreach if anything replaced two tools for us (tout app and connectleader). I had very high expectations of the tool coming in from my colleagues who had used it before but I was blown away by how simple and easy the tool was to use for a first-timer. Things are very simple when it comes to making an ideal sequence but still include personal tailoring to the people you'll be reaching. Outreach is fantastic at integrating with Sales Navigator and calling during sequences. This makes it much more simple in terms of reaching out in different avenues but while saving your reps time to where they can focus on running more demos, while they automate most of their prospecting and stay organizing. Our organization actually saw a massive increase in the pipeline after we implemented outreach. I found it made my job as an Account Executive much easier. Not only was it a tool I could prospect with but it was very easy to insert my follow-ups inside the tools and have desktop reminders to have me follow up with my contacts. Outreach even has a terrific calendar integration inside its variables that give you the ability to link your calendar making it even easier for people to schedule meetings on your calendar instead of going back in forth trying to find a time. My few critics of the tool are I wish the analytics feature would run fast and be easier to use to check our statics and how I am performing for the team. Usually, when I clock on to this tool it takes a couple of minutes to load which is frustrating because the rest of the tool works at lightning speed.
  • Easy to build sequences.
  • Great integration with LinkedIn Sales Navigator and their phone dialer.
  • Calendar sync.
  • Comparing statics between subject lines and sequences.
  • Increase speed on analytics reporting.
  • Enable automatically skipping steps on sequences that have been bottlenecked at their manual step.
Fantastic for building a sales pipeline and saving your reps time in their day-to-day.

Outreach is an amazing tool for all sales teams, no matter the industry. As a self-described power user, I utilize all of Outreach's features as much as I can, from templates to sequences to phone calls to notes to snippets. They continually improve their offerings as work dynamically with Salesforce with ease. From SDR to AE to sales managers, Outreach is a tool that helps bring in more meetings and overall more deals for every user! I cannot say enough great things about Outreach and how they have carefully thought out every feature that sales teams need.
  • Sequences for specific campaigns
  • Templates for any replies that you find yourself giving over and over again
  • Meeting times and automation so you can close more deals
  • Snippets to include bite-size value props for any reply
  • Outreach recording Kaia tool can be improved
  • Overall more examples in place for fresh sequences
  • Undo send button is greatly needed!
SDRs who are outbounding accounts can really benefit from the sequences and how they have multiple steps. These include but are not limited to Linkedin messaging, calls, manual emails, and automated emails. It is key for SDRs and AEs to utilize all features, as they can test out messaging and keep track of all accounts they are going after.

Outreach is the sales development platform our organization uses for the outsourced outbound lead generation services we provide our clients. We use it to schedule/send cold emails, place and record cold calls, manage tasks, CRM, and for insights to optimize campaigns.
  • Outbound sales task flow management
  • Cold email personalization at scale
  • Streamlining sales processes
  • Email warm up services
  • Team collaboration
Outreach is a tremendous tool to keep sales reps organized and on task. It makes the process of outbound sales as frictionless as possible so reps spend more time selling and less time on admin tasks. Whether you have a large sales team or even one rep, Outreach is a valuable tool to maximize productivity.

Outreach is used by the sales team and some members of CS. It is an extremely helpful tool for prospecting, staying organized, checking opportunities, outbounding, researching accounts, and hitting quota. Outreach is our go to for prospecting accounts and making dials. It also allows you to A/B test sequences and create lists of tasks that you have to complete during your week - all organized in handy drop down menus. It is really streamlined and easy to use, easy on the eyes, and doesn't overload the RAM of your computer. Also, there are extensions you can add to your internet browser to integrate Outreach into Gmail, Zoominfo, etc.
  • Phone Calls
  • Tasks
  • Opportunity Check Up
  • Delegation
  • Emails
  • Bulk Emails
  • Prospecting
  • Color use
  • UI
  • Prospect / Account details
  • In - app research
Outreach is incredible for sales and CS. It really makes it easy to keep track of your progress and processes with accounts, view history of communications, (literally) outreach to them via email and phone, bulk email, take call notes, record calls. You can purchase a phone number and I've never had an issue with the VOIP. Call quality is great and I love being able to see when people open up emails, read emails, click links etc. It makes following up after webinars really easy and methodical.

We use it to integrate our Gmail and Salesforce as well as a calling system.
  • Great call connectivity.
  • Detailed reports on email and calls.
  • Keeps you organized in Salesforce to know what merchants you are communicating with through email as well as their responses!
  • Sometimes there are connection issues.
  • More robust reports if possible.
  • Greater insight into areas of call or email outreach improvement.
Outreach is great in terms of transactional calls and detailed reporting with large scale calls, however, for a more refined touch other platforms such as Zoom provide that face to face interaction for meetings that are sometimes required for a multi location- high value client. When you make those calls in Zoom however, they do not carry over to be tracked in Outreach. Therefore, if your working in a metrics based environment, where every call and and minutes can be synced to Salesforce reports, this capability to link Zoom and record talk time back to Salesforce would be a welcome addition!

Outreach is currently used by our Marketing Team, specifically by our Sales Development Reps. They use it primarily for prospecting new contacts, re-engaging stale or nurtured contacts, and tracking the efficacy of specific messaging across a variety of variables. It allows us visibility into the day-to-day SDR functions, as well as creates a way for the team to ensure cohesive messaging across the team through the creation of specific sequences that address specific problems/titles/business functions/etc.
  • Visibility into messaging efficacy - we can clearly see bounce rates, reply rates, etc with this tool
  • Consistent messaging - the team is able to craft specific sequence messages that is used across the team, ensuring that our communications stay on-brand and highlight agreed-upon points for the message receiver.
  • Integration with Salesforce - whether through a trigger or direct updates, specific actions in Outreach are synced seamlessly with our CRM, allowing us to continue to use Salesforce as our source of truth for cross-functional performance metrics.
  • Triggers can be a little tricky to figure out - some limitations are not intuitive
  • User management through Salesforce feature - our process is to Freeze Salesforce accounts before deactivating them to ensure account/opportunity/contact migrations have fully taken place; Outreach will only remove licenses from deactivated users, which could be frustrating if we were already at our license cap and needed to add more users in that interim.
Outreach is well-suited for first-touch prospecting efforts as well as nurture campaigns, which is what our team currently uses the software for. It provides great messaging and process control through the creation of sequences, which helps ensure that marketing's messaging is received by the prospect. It might be less suited for touchpoints further downstream in the sales cycle, when there is a greater need for customization and personalization related to that prospect's interactions, place is the sales funnel, etc.

It's a sales automation tool for our very limited sales staff. Our producers also have to generate all their own top of funnel. We use it to do more outreach with less users. It's only used by our sales department. It also allows our marketing department to have oversight on content and takes thinking out of top of funnel prospecting, leading to more action.
  • Sequence execution.
  • Plugins with other sales tools.
  • Very user friendly.
  • Getting a prospect out of a sequence proved challenging at times.
  • More social media plug ins would be nice.
  • Also having data field lookup integration would prove very beneficial.
If you have a lean and/or junior sales staff; outreach is a great tool. Takes a while to get all the sequences built out but once you do it's a very seamless process. Also overlays with an auto dialer if an organization is using one of those. If your direct sales team isn't focused on top of funnel, it's overkill.

My Sales team uses Outreach to organize our Sales process. With so many contacts to prospect, Outreach helps me stay on top of my outbounding so I can get the necessary "touches" on my prospects in order to stay in front of them. It also helps for transparency - I know that all my activity being logged will keep me and my colleagues that work on my accounts aligned at all times.
  • Organization - I know when to make calls/emails/LinkedIn connections without having to overthink anything.
  • Alignment - the colleagues I work with on my accounts can keep tabs on my activity so there is no redundancy or overcommunication.
  • Ease of use - all my contacts are in one place, and sending automated emails I have built in my sequences give me so much time back in my day.
  • The window that pops up on the right hand side when I go to send an email is too small. I would like to expand it but it can only increase in size so much.
  • At times, my Outreach phone has trouble connecting to my work phone. I don't know if it is a problem on my end, but the connection is a few seconds delayed which creates some confusion.
Outreach is well suited for large sales teams. It helps me stay organized, saves me time with the sequences I have built out, and for that reason I can't imagine doing my job without it. I love that my team can see who I'm reaching out to so we are all aligned. I cannot imagine a use case outside of this to be honest.

It is being used by the Sales Development team to optimize our sales process. We use it to reach more prospects and create timely email and call sequences that allow you to target prospects at the best times. It shows you who is interacting with your emails, opening and clicking links as well.
  • Easy to learn.
  • Will increase your daily outreach.
  • Optimizing when to reach new prospects.
  • Sometimes you get logged out for no reason.
  • Limited customization, especially with emails.
  • Outreach everywhere has many issues.
It is well suited for any SDRs who handle a large number of accounts at one time. It allows you to see how far along each prospect is in each sequence. So if you have a lot of accounts that are far along in a sequence, you'll know they are less responsive.

Our BDRs, Account Executives and CSMs use Outreach to manage their sequences and interactions with their prospects and customers to ensure a personable and consistent messaging to see our product effectively. It also tracks in SFDC and so it makes management easier to be able to keep metrics on who is performing and getting responses and meetings booked most efficiently.
  • Sequence tracking
  • Email/Inbox integration
  • Salesforce integration
  • Workflow functionality.
  • Ease of use to learn backend.
Outreach is not intuitive to support/administer. It takes a bit of time to understand how to integrate and map the fields over. And there's automation (workflows) that takes a little while to understand. It is probably best suited to manage the sequence and routine tasks but not for automation of lead life cycle updates—those should be triggered by your marketing automation tool or Salesforce.

Both of our Sales & BDR teams use Outreach every single day. We have optimized Outreach with Dialpad as the voice component to increase productivity on outbound calls, logging activity, and syncing back to Salesforce for Management visibility. Outreach is able to keep all agents more organized, informed, and able to exceed their weekly sales activity.
  • Easy sequencing leading to more self-sourced leads
  • Easily syncs information and call activity back to Salesforce for manager visibility
  • Ability to import leads on a daily basis within active sequences to continue to improve upon outbound numbers
  • Creative idea: Much like some vendors have a mini-dialer within Salesforce, it would be interesting to see how Outreach could do something similar to keep everything within one window instead of multiple open tabs
I have tried many outbounding solutions over the last few years such as SalesLoft, Hubspot, Pardot and Outreach. I prefer Outreach over all of them today and love that both our BDR and Sales teams continue to use it daily. We find more alignment between the BDRs and AEs and the ability to share great working sequences that are getting more open rates or response rates leading to better productivity and visibility.

Outreach is used by the sales department, everything from SDRs to sales executives. We use it for client outreach, responding to leads, and general prospecting activities. It is most heavily utilized by the sales development team.
  • Scheduled customer outreach cadences.
  • Integrates well with Salesforce.
  • Easy to log activities.
  • Solid metric tracking.
  • Focus on quantity over quality.
  • Best for sales development and not strategic use case.
It’s great for outreach to multiple contacts and casting a wide net. It keeps you organized when your prospect list is huge, but isn’t the best if you are strategically focused on just a few accounts or prospects. It is easy to use and fits BDR or SDR teams perfectly and is a natural part of their daily work flow.

Outreach is being used by our entire sales organization to manage tasks and track prospect engagement. It helps our reps to be efficient with their time, manage strategic outreach efforts, and have the context they need when reaching out to the many people we engage with on a day to day basis.
  • Outreach is extremely customizable to fit to any strategic emailing/calling campaign
  • Outreach has a quick and reliable sync with Salesforce
  • Outreach makes it easy to make 100 calls and 100 emails daily
  • Sometimes Outreach settings can be too complex to really know what's happening behind the scenes
  • The sync with Salesforce takes some engineering and thus is slow to change when the reps find a mapping issue
  • Outreach prospect profiles can sometimes be a little "noisy" with information
If there is any kind of outbound sales team, Outreach is vital. It's adept at managing thousands of contacts and bringing a relationship history with each one. Customer Success teams benefit greatly from knowing the history of engagement with prospects as well. If you're strictly B2C, Outreach may not be fully necessary.

We are using it to nurture and book leads/create touchpoints within open sales opportunities. Being used largely by the Sales organization (business development and account executives) but also by our customer success team to ensure they remember to follow up at the correct intervals with customers/identify expansion opportunities.
  • Reminders of when tasks are due/being able to prioritize tasks on the home page
  • Metrics for managers
  • Account pages to be able to see all activity for contacts from the same account on one page
  • Ability to sort tasks based on time zone would be a game-changer
  • Better functionality for bulk uploading contacts
  • Interface could be more user-friendly
Well suited if you have hundreds of accounts/contacts to keep in touch with or to manage touchpoints with. Would not be appropriate if you have a small amount of people to keep in contact with.

We use Outreach primarily on the sales side of our organization. There are roughly 10 of us using it to manage our sales prospect pipelines, help streamline content and messaging and how we are pitching our company to everyone, and also manage & train our sales people to be better reps and close more business.
  • Streamline messaging for all reps
  • Efficiently manage all of our prospecting
  • Good insights on how messaging works
  • Sales manager reporting
  • Leveraging AI to have smarter responses or recommended responses
  • Leveraging AI to tell us when we should or should not send a message automatically
Outreach is definitely well suited for the organizations with 10+ sales reps doing very similar work and tasks. I also feel like it's better suited for organizations that rely heavily on prospecting and outbound sales because Outreach does a great job of streamlining messaging and sales and ensures you're not letting items fall through the cracks.

Outreach is used by the Global BD team. It ensures that we reach out to all the accounts in a timely and proper fashion, we don't miss follow-ups, and follow a specific cadence.
  • Cadence management and available templates
  • Integration with Salesforce, LinkedIn, Zoom
  • VoIP services for NA
  • UI can be better
  • Pipeline management piece is not good. It's better to get another tool for pipeline
  • Analytics dashboard
Suited for large BD teams where there is a large number of accounts and where you don't have separate tools already in place for pipeline management and VoIP dialer.
Not Suited for smaller teams with a medium budget (especially BD teams that don't close, they don't have the money to consider buying outreach). Even their Essential version is expensive.

Outreach is being used by both my team (client services) as well as my sales teams consisting of sales development reps and director of sales. The way that my team utilizes Outreach is by tracking outbound emails sent to clients, but for the other teams it would be used to track emails sent to prospects. I am able to see if my client has opened and/or read my email and if they've actually responded to my email. It's extremely helpful to know what the status of my outbound email is and then trying to figure out if or why my client isn't responding to me.
  • The integration of syncing to my gmail is great
  • Any other product integration like how it syncs with our Salesforce as well is super helpful
  • Overall, it's UI is pretty intuitive
  • It forces you to log back in quite often, so sometimes when I'm typing an email I'll realize it is not currently synced so then I must refresh every time
It is best for people who send a lot of outbound emails and need reporting and feedback as to the success of their campaigns and/or emails. It is great for teams or people who are client or prospect facing. When I am sending an email to a client regarding on-boarding and I need to schedule a call with them, it's super helpful to know if they actually received my email and if they then read it. After that, it's more of a puzzle of trying to figure out how I can get them to respond to my email and trying to master what works the best for my emails whether that be a subject line, etc...

We use Outreach mainly for sales development where we send emails at scale. Our account executives use it occasionally for prospecting too. We use mainly email automation and email tracking (opens, clicks, responses). It's great for sharing templates and sequences among the team. I'm managing the Sales Development team and don't use it myself, so I rely on their positive feedback and the reporting/managing aspect. I also think Outreach's resources are awesome.
  • Integrate with your own email server. The main reason why we switched email automation is because of deliverability. Outreach sends emails from your own email server, that with branded tracking URLs emails, are less likely to end up in spam folders or being flagged as "marketing." Looks like if you send an email via Outlook.
  • Robust solution. Functionalities work great without technical issues.
  • Integrations are a big plus. Works well with Salesforce and even Drift.
  • No subject line switching within a sequence. It's either a thread with "Re: [..]" or new emails.
In my opinion, it's the best email automation/sales enablement software out there for our purposes. It could use some functionalities other platforms have like pulling in dynamic content from outside sources and subject line variations within a sequence.

Our entire sales department uses Outreach. We use Outreach for email automation, templates, success rate tracking, and call automation.
  • Simple to use
  • Easy to set up templates
  • Reliable email tracking
  • Updates could be more real-time. Often times I need to refresh to see the latest open activity.
Outreach is well suited for any high volume sales department. There are many features that can be utilized by different role types whether you are a sales executive or in business development. Outreach is less appropriate for account management roles or organizations with low touch sales needs.

We use Outreach primarily to streamline and automate our outbound sales efforts as a small startup. The business problem it solved was that we previously had no visibility into metrics of who we were reaching out to, as well as no efficient way to run through a list of leads and follow up in a systematic way.
  • The ability to define specific follow-up cadences to ensure your team is doing uniform outreach in order to iterate.
  • Very strong filter settings to find/filter certain types of tasks.
  • Strong sync to Salesforce.
  • Nice Gmail add-on.
  • I would've liked the ability to easily filter out by accounts vs contacts to align with a more account-based sales strategy.
  • Doesn't integrate with Hubspot CRM.
I think Outreach is well suited for scaling companies that need a way to automate and add uniformity to mass outreach efforts. If your team is composed of people doing their own separate efforts and there's no strategy behind it, Outreach is likely less applicable. However, if you have an outbound focused team that's reaching out to a large volume of prospects, Outreach is a great tool to empower those efforts.

We use OutReach with our Sales team, specifically with our appointment setting team members. OutReach allows them to organize those leads they want to target each day. OutReach enables them to ensurer they are touching those leads at least 8-12 times throughout the sequence, which drastically helps improve our conversion ratios.
  • Helps target specific leads to work each day/week.
  • Keeps our appointment setters organized & tasks created for easy follow-up.
  • We can create specific messaging based on the type of lead we're working.
  • I would love a small pop-up window to show when emails are opened.
  • It would be awesome to be able to grab open time slots from the calendar & incorporate them into a sequence for prospects to choose & auto update the calendar.
Great for outbound efforts as well as for reaching out to existing clients to remain top of mind.
Because OutReach pulls info from Salesforce, sometimes it becomes difficult to address messages to specific people.
