Gong is the GOAT
Overall Satisfaction with Gong
Gong is heavily used at our organization. As a growth and development focused sales team, we have multiple use cases on a weekly basis.
For starters, we record all sales calls that include a contact outside of our company. This provides great insight not only into the volume of calls each rep is having, but also an easy traceable and findable timeline of when calls occurred.

Pros
- Recording the actual calls
- dictating the live video into a readable transcript
- tracking percentage of who is speaking and on what topics
Cons
- sometimes the call will say the wrong contact is speaking. Adding to 'Jims' talk time when it was actually 'John' speaking
- The transcript can be missing some info or mis-dictating what was actually said
- it can be hard to lookup certain calls, sometimes a call won't be under my name even though I booked and ran the meeting
- better odds of winning deals, period.
- better accountability with reps
- great potential for developing your sales skills
The improved AI insights over the years is something I've been impressed with for sure. Although I rely on myself to pick out the pain points and more so the actual angle of how to win the current deal, I do look at the follow up emails I get from Gong. They do a good job of creating a checklist of items that was discussed on the call and help to ensure nothing slips through the cracks.
Gong AI Insights do a good job at ensuring no items of the discussion slip through the cracks. It's easy to search by keyword to verify if a word or topic was discussed. On top of that you can do that for a whole group of calls. This makes it easy to track trends.
- Groove and a Clari company
Gong is a lot more in depth and has a much more data rich approach to the sales cycle than Groove. While groove is good at keeping your communication in line and on time, Gong really dominates when it comes to searching recorded calls and finding the key topics/exchanges you want to recount.
