Salesloft is used by the Sales function of WeWork. I specifically play the role of lead generation in my organization. I find mail addresses and other contact information through different sources and Salesloft them with a series of follow-ups.
  • Removes mails if replied, enables to be tracked manually and doesn't send continuous follow-ups as it might irk the prospects.
  • Allowed to view info with name, designation, location and phone. Gives clarity.
  • Gives the actual count of emails as it flushes out the bounced mails.
  • Unable able to merge a couple of cadences.
  • Shaded or duplicate entries of mail addresses should be allowed to add to a new cadence, the old campaign must be old and discarded. so no point in letting that mail address go.
  • Mailbox gets flooded if the mail bounces. No alternate solution to counter that?
Salesloft is not very well suited for fixing email addresses.

SalesLoft is being used by the sales team at Rakuten Marketing UK and it's been really useful. It solves several problems such as: dates to send emails and templates already made and ready to send. Through SalesLoft we are able to work as team more efficiently and it makes our work much easier.
  • Build cadences to send emails to different people according to some specifications you are aware of it
  • Allows you to tailor a mass email to something more personal with less work involved
  • Reminds you of the emails you have to send and dates scheduled
  • Allows you to follow-up emails and re-schedule them for when the prospect ask you to without having to save it in a notepad
  • I would like to have a notification when people in my cadences are finishing (for instance, a notification to remind me to add steps to the cadence)
  • It would be good if we could send LinkedIn messages with templates, as we do it in a normal cadence.
For sales purposes, SalesLoft is a life changing tool. It makes your day easier by automating several manual tasks. It allows you to work as a team more efficiently and understand the needs of the prospects. The fact that it connects with LinkedIn is also a major difference, as you don't need to open LinkedIn and send individual messages.

SalesLoft has been a very helpful tool to allow me to keep track of all my interactions with prospects. I deal with a high volume of inbound leads everyday. Prior to SalesLoft everything was manual, emails, calling etc. Now with SalesLoft, I add any new leads into a different cadence depending on the priority and the prospect's enquiry and keep up with them.

The bulk emailing has saved me a lot of time. I am able to do 1 week's work in a matter of minutes with this functionality.
  • Bulk emailing
  • Cadences for different enquiries and prioprity
  • Email Tracking
  • Calling has been an issue in the past
SalesLoft is great for sales teams that deal with a high volume of leads to better manage workloads and email marketing.

It is being used by the sales team for lead management, outbound phone calls, email cadences, and ensuring touch points across channels. Multiple teams across the organization are utilizing SalesLoft for these efforts. The business problems that SalesLoft is solving are organizational and technology based. It is easy to keep my leads organized, make sure that they are getting touched across emails and social media and getting called. The analytics portion helps me see my team's performance as a whole and helps to measure success.
  • Lead Management through Cadences
  • Individual and Team Analytics
  • Email Tracking
  • Interoperability with LinkedIn and other prospecting tools
  • Cannot see total calls connected
  • Not enough filter/sort options
  • Often times the dial-out for outbound calls is delayed
SalesLoft is well suited to support outbound business development teams. SalesLoft is less appropriate for teams that have to manage early sales processes. SalesLoft is great for tracking emails, calls, and total interactions with potential leads. SalesLoft keeps you organized through cadences and ensures that contacts are not lost in the process.

SalesLoft is being used by our entire sales organization. Speaking within the SDR function, everything I do is within SalesLoft. Essentially it helps our team manager a higher volume of leads during our outreach and also allows us to test various cadences, emails, etc.
  • Analytics on Cadences
  • Building Cadences is Quite Easy
  • Forecasting Activities to I know when I need to Add More Accounts
  • Can be slow at times (second + delay when typing)
  • Have had difficulties syncing to an SFDC lead/contact (would be great if I could map back to applicable person within SalesLoft)
Well Suited
  • Inbound SDR Teams where leaders want to increase the number of leads worked by their team.
  • Outbound SDR/BDR teams who want to be more efficient and gain analytics into what is working vs not.

Used by our Business Development Team and Account Executive Team to manage all email send-outs and phone calls. Business development is looking for fresh accounts to work while the Accounts Executive team is nurturing qualified leads. Both teams are frequently using cadences and phone calls to interface with prospects.
  • Click to dial function is the best feature in my opinion.
  • Cadences are easy to use.
  • Templates are well integrated with Gmail.
  • Lack of analytics on best time/day to reach out.
  • Automatic emails didn't seem possible.
  • Wasn't as accurate as Salesforce inbox at tracking opens/reads.
When working through a contact list it is very quick and easy to use the click-to-dial function to contact prospects in a short amount of time. This is the biggest positive differentiator between Salesloft and its competitors.

SalesLoft is an incredible tool to help sales manage outreach, prospecting, and templating. There are thousands of companies we want to start a conversation with. Without SalesLoft, it would be impossible to do effective outreach at scale. The ability to see how people are engaging with our outreach is also incredible. SalesLoft allows us to be highly intentional.
  • Personalized outreach at scale
  • Able to see how and when people are engaging with outreach
  • Templated snippets and templates that integrate into Gmail has been a game changer
  • The availability function that syncs with my Google Calendar has made it incredibly easy to share open availability
  • If you're not careful, it's easy to get carried away an the number of cadences you have running at one time
SalesLoft is best used by external facing employees who do a large amount of communication prospecting or even customer engagement. It is so useful to set up intentional cadences with appropriate messaging to get the best results. Dialing through SalesLoft also helps to keep track of activity and engagement in one place.

SalesLoft is being used by all customer-facing employees, primarily on the Sales and Sales Development teams. We use it for initial engagement with accounts, automated messaging, and deal nurturing all throughout the buying cycle. Also, the extension into our GMail is one of the most utilized features and one which our sales team could not live without.
  • Cadences.
  • Email Tracking.
  • Email Automation.
  • Contact personalization.
  • Auto removals.
If your organization or company needs to attract a lot of attention, or reach a lot of contacts in a seamless, yet personalized manner, then SalesLoft is for you. It is extremely well suited to get out "personalized" email at scale for hundreds to thousands of contacts all at once.

SalesLoft: a must try

Score 10 out of 10

SalesLoft is being used by the BDR/SDR team to automate the prospecting process. The two main problems it solves is automating the recording of activities in SalesForce and organizing your future tasks to increase activity. Another benefit is that it allows you to interact with the target's LinkedIn profile without the need to search for them within LinkedIn.
  • Automate task entry into Salesforce. Saves an enormous amount of time.
  • Lines up your to-do list which increases the number of activities a single user is able to complete.
  • Dial straight from SalesLoft, again, automating task entry into Salesforce.
  • The "view" function (how many times your sent email has been viewed) can be misleading. Any time you click on your own email in the sent folder, that will count as a view. Any time someone scrolls over the email in their inbox, that will count as a view.
  • Minor UI thing, but in a call task, the window to either script or put bullets for talking points is TINY and unable to be resized. It's basically worthless. It would be a big help to make this window larger so people can see what they are supposed to touch on.
  • If you connect on the phone and qualify someone out, you will need to make a few extra clicks to remove that person from the cadence.
A tool like SalesLoft is a must have for the Business Development team. I could see some benefit for AEs in some sales processes, and particularly automated emails like handing off and introductions after key points in the process, but it is absolutely, 100% for a BDR team.

SalesLoft is being used by our entire sales and customer success department! it helps us track the calls, emails, cadences, etc across all teams and keeps everyone organized for their outreach to customers and current clients. It especially helps our BDR's track how they reach out to potential new clients.
  • Tracking of calls and emails.
  • Cadence creations.
  • Real-time visibility across all teams.
  • The ability to live update with Salesforce instead of pulling in reports.
  • [Make it] easier to switch account owners so you aren't emailing old clients when client books change.
  • The ability to see how many times someone has opened an email directly in Gmail.
SalesLoft works very well for companies' sales departments to track how reps are doing on a daily basis with calls, emails and general outreach to clients. it gives everyone across the organization the ability to see what others are doing and can help management gain insight into why certain reps aren't doing as well, because of little outreach.

SalesLoft is used by all our Demand Generation Reps in the Sales Department, and about half of our existing Sales Executives that conduct the high level demonstrations and Discovery via Webex. It is also used by two individuals in marketing for multi touches via email, as SalesLoft is also integrated with our CRM Salesforce.
  • Efficient in mapping activity with our CRM SFDC (Salesforce.com)
  • Notifying seat members when someone opens or clicks through material like an Email
  • Recording calls
  • Reception of calls, frequent lags and static in recordings for all seat members. This may be a technical issue that is being worked on, but it's important for professionalism in calls.
  • Attachments in emails on Cadences (Call Lists)
Very well suited for efficient call planning. Even organizes your calls via time zone (EST to PST)

Our BDR team and account executive teams use SalesLoft to help organize our outreach to prospects. We use cadences primarily made up of emails and phone calls.
  • So helpful to have multiple streams of outreach organized.
  • Keeps BDRs accountable for daily outreach.
  • Managers have insight into activities
  • Syncs with Salesforce
  • Can use templated emails
  • Sometimes phone calls get dropped.
  • I would like for individual reps to be able to turn off the Local Dialer functionality because I prefer not to use it.
Any organization with an inside sales team tasked with making outbound outreach into cold accounts can benefit from SalesLoft.

Our entire go-to-market team here at Heap uses Heap--including our business development team, Account Executives, and Account Managers.

SalesLoft helps us organize our outreach to prospective customers and users. It allows us to create personal and team "cadences" to set up specific messaging for different personas we sell to, automate a lot of follow up processes, and integrates with other outbound prospecting tools we use like Sendoso as well as our CRM Salesforce.
  • Cadence set up, automation, and workflow: It is easy to set up a personal or a Team cadence for a particular campaign or persona message. Steps can be automated with handy options to pick when automated emails will be sent, when contacts will be taken out of the cadence (if they reply or their email bounces) and so on.
  • Advanced automation rules allow you to trigger Cadence actions based on changes to other data fields, such as a particular Salesforce contact field. We use this to automatically add contacts to a cadence when a specific field in Salesforce is changed (a picklist of potential cadence options).
  • Add on benefits like integration to Crystal to help you know what type of language to use with your target contact, Owler for news and insights on companies you're reaching out to, and a pretty good account management/support team.
  • The Salesforce integration has never worked exactly as I'd like it to, leading to several frustrations. The product and customer success team have been diligent addressing concerns and talking through product updates, but I don't feel the core problem has been addressed. Essentially, SalesLoft maintains a separate database of contact and account records imported via the integration from Salesforce. This means that when a contact is updated in Salesforce, it may not automatically update in SalesLoft, meaning company names can be incorrect, contacts can be attached to the wrong account, and so on. My best practice is typically to just reimport (and therefore force an update) of any contacts I want to reach out to from Salesforce.
It is great for small to medium-sized teams who want to double or triple the productivity of their business development representatives. In a previous job, our email and call outbounding was all managed in spreadsheets and through Outlook. When I came to Heap and began using SalesLoft I was significantly more efficient, productive, and successful.

As our team has grown, members have joined and left, and our use of the tool has evolved as our collection of cadences and templates has grown messy. A better paradigm for managing these templates, understanding what templates map to what cadence, and so on will help our team scale use of SalesLoft. I can see how a large enterprise may have to strictly control their SalesLoft environment to prevent similar drawbacks.

SalesLoft is used religiously by my sales team, and current expansion company-wide is underway. We would not be able to do our jobs near as effectively without it.

Biggest pluses are the constant product updates and the phenomenal team of humans behind the platform that are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable.

I'd recommend them 10/10 times.
  • Keeps reps organized.
  • Integration with CRM is phenomenal.
  • Helps our activity levels go through the roof.
  • Twilio dialer via SalesLoft is rough. Call quality mainly.
  • Call prioritization. I'd love some AI that tells reps which calls are most important, and tells them when to make those calls.
If you like data-driven decisions and maximizing the efficiency of your reps, SalesLoft is a must-have for SDRs, closers, and AMs.

SalesLoft is used by the entire sales team for all outbound efforts. It's really our only source of truth for items related to outreach and communication tracking. Without SalesLoft, I doubt we would have any way of knowing who was doing what or how to keep track of what the next steps are with a given prospect.
  • Track open rates based on content or subject line.
  • Provide insights on the best time for SDRs to dial.
  • Track activity.
  • Improve the amount of machine learning applied to all aspects of the software to know what matters and what doesn't matter to clients based on title, role, etc.
SalesLoft is great for managing the sales and outbound process, but not so great for managing post-sales. We tried to use it as part of our implementation/onboarding flow and while you could do that, it's a bit like hammering a nail with a rock.

We use SalesLoft across our team of sales directors to help create a repeatable, scalable, and importantly, personalized, prospecting program to keep our clients' pipelines full of meetings with their dream clients. SalesLoft eliminates the need to use multiple sales tools, making our team more effective and more efficient in their outreach efforts.
  • Create Multi-Touch / Multi-Channel Sales Cadences
  • Automated Activity Logging
  • Personalized Email Automation
  • We've experienced some Salesforce/SalesLoft syncing issues with prospects that are in multiple sales reps' workflows
  • The analytics could be stronger
  • Customer service is responsive but could be more helpful at times
SalesLoft is perfect for sales reps willing to put in the effort to write customized/personalized emails to their prospects. For the complex B2B enterprise sales environment our company works within, this is essential to break into the cluttered inboxes of senior-level decision-makers. On the other hand, if your target market is small businesses, where you're not customizing/personalizing, SalesLoft is less appropriate.

We used SalesLoft with our sales development reps in our sales department. We are able to utilize bi-directional sync with SalesForce to ensure seamless updating of leads/contacts/opportunities. We created cadences for each specific lead campaign and reps are able to easily queue up tasks and workflows, create CTAs, triggers, templates & use SL's built-in dialer to efficiently work through leads. As a manager, it is important to make sure all leads are being called according to our SLA, that leads are being called the correct amount of times on the correct days. SalesLoft prevents these from becoming problems and allows management to view a rep's activity at all times as well as listen to call recordings and live calls.
  • Cadence/Tasks: SalesLoft gives us the ability to create different workflows for different types of leads/prospects. This allows for a personal "feel" without sounding automated and results in a highly efficient workflow that allows our reps to log more touchpoints in less time.
  • Call Recordings/Live Listen/Group Call: Management & peers get a ton of value out of this feature. We are able to use these calls in coachings but we are also able to jump in and listen to a live call and give live feedback and coaching.
  • Simple UI: Reps are able to easily adopt this platform which is critical when considering ramp time, very intuitive, vast knowledge base and support available.
  • Better Reporting functionality
  • Better visibilty for prospects who opt out
SalesLoft is well suited for any sales team that is looking to create efficiencies and increase productivity and success.

We use SalesLoft as our main prospecting tool within the sales organization. We use it primarily for creating email templates, automating email blasts, and using email data provided to effectively prospect. On the phone side, we use SalesLoft to call all of our outbound and inbound prospects. The local dialer feature is also great, especially when trying to get a hold of people who have stopped communicating.
  • The creation and storage of SalesLoft templates
  • Automating the sending of 100s or 1000s of emails; also providing insight on each email
  • Being able to call prospects from one central hub
  • SalesLoft Local dialer
  • Cadences
  • When prospects call my SalesLoft provided number, I cannot answer it straight from SalesLoft. I have to use my desk phone
  • Updating in line with connected CRM. Many times when we update something in SalesForce, it doesn't update in SalesLoft
  • Being able to automatically remove prospects from cadences once they answer the phone
SalesLoft is amazing for calling large numbers of people and sending out an even larger quantity of emails. It allows sales organizations to streamline their prospecting activities, and produce greater results with less effort. The insight provided by the email analytics also gives great information about the behavior of prospects, allowing for even more efficient prospecting. Our organization wouldn't consider going back to doing hand dials and manual emails. SalesLoft is amazing!

SalesLoft is being used by the inside sales team between the account managers and account executives. We use them for cadences (sending out emails for certain days), we use it for our call-out days to mass send emails to our customers and keep out team members on track for calling/emailing the client and not forgetting about them. Lastly, we use it as a dialer.
  • As a dialer - I love that I can click on a number in Salesforce and automatically calls my client
  • Use for Cadences - easily stay in touch with clients for calls and emails - which also records in Salesforce
  • Out of 700 accounts, I work with, only 1 number pops up when I have an inbound call and support hasn't been able to help
  • Support/our AM has never called and tried to talk to us to see how we are liking the product
  • In the beginning, its a process to get all contacts from SFDC to SalesLoft
If you are an account executive and are keeping tasks to follow up with clients, this tool will be really helpful. It reminds you on days you need to call or email. It helps managers set up campaigns or cadences for their team to run weekly or monthly.

It also is a good tool for account managers because it helps us keep in touch with our clients.

SalesLoft was being used by our business development team to aid in our outbound prospecting. We used it in connection with Salesforce to accurately log and track all of our prospecting activity. Without a tracking tool, we would have needed to manually track phone calls, emails, and meeting which can take a lot of time.
  • Building and sharing prospecting cadences. We were able to easily see other people's information within our org to share and build upon existing outreach campaigns
  • Visibility into prospect interactions, being able to see into when someone interacts with your email is old news, SalesLoft shows you exactly what they did, when they did it, and gives this information in an easy to digest feed on the prospect.
  • Task organization, the breakdown of daily tasks was easy to manipulate and adjust to personal preferences.
  • I have used other prospecting tools that were able to be used more functionally through a chrome extension while the CRM tab was open. We used SalesLoft in its own tab and that often became cumbersome.
  • With our transition to a different CRM we switched away from SalesLoft, more depth on their integration would have been nice so we could consider continuing to use them.
In a business development or inside sales organization where interactions and accountability are important having a fully integrated prospecting tool like SalesLoft is a game changer.

We use SalesLoft for our sales development in order to better organize and engage with our customers and prospects. It helps us personalize at scale while maintaining a repeatable process in contact prospective customers. SalesLoft also has a number of different partnerships that help us distinguish our messaging. Thier analytics engine is key to identifying what works and what doesn't.

We had one sales development rep who would use SalesLoft for our outbound email and prospecting workflows. The solution helped the rep stay on track and sync with our Salesforce account so we could keep track of engagements with prospects across contacts and accounts.

  • Has great integrations with sales intelligent tools to provide reps with more insights on their customers when crafting messages

  • Better mobile experience would be desirable

Salesloft was being used for our business development team. We used it to automate much of the business development process and integrated it with Salesforce to streamline the prospecting process. It helps to reduce the manual emails and gives you an auto-dialed option to increase your efficiency making calls.
  • The autodialer works very well and allowed me to make on average 40 calls an hour.
  • Creating automated email cadences was very easy and helped to continue touching prospects without having to put manual effort in.
  • The integration with Salesforce is great since it pushes all of your activity through so you don’t have to double up on logging information and activity in different places.
  • I’d like to see email templates be importable from Salesforce. In many cases I had full cadences set up in Salesforce that then all had to be transferred over manually. Having an import function would go a long way.
  • The autodialer was individual calls instead of a single call session. It would save some time if it was a single call session and just went on to the next number within the same session instead of making a separate call.
I think for any kind of business development or cold prospecting it is a great tool. It’s not as useful for follow up of people you’ve already had a discussion with as Salesforce already has that functionality. So if you are considering it for reaching out to current customers or prospects already in the pipeline it’s not necessary if you have another CRM already.
