Overall Satisfaction with Gong.io
Gong.io is my main tool for coaching my sales team, it's built into my daily workflow. I use Gong.io to onboard new employees by assigning them calls to listen to so that they can learn how to handle certain objections with real life examples. I use Gong to give feedback and coaching to my entire sales team, and use it's translating function to even score those in countries where I don't speak the language! I also rely heavily on Gong to determine what is working and what isn't, according to trackers and topics. I couldn't live without Gong as a Sales Enablement Manager.
- Gong is great at identifying areas of improvement for my reps.
- I love how Gong uses AI to flag deals that are in danger of not closing from things like "prospect hasn't been contacted in 1 week" or "there has been no talk about budget."
- I love how Gong lets me see what my top performers are talking about and what my low performers are talking about, so I can coach them and give specific language and phrases to use on calls. Very actionable.
- I use Gong every single day in my role as Sales Enablement. My team will often listen to a call together and answer how they would have handled the situation, give feedback, etc.
- The translation function isn't perfect, there are quite a few errors.
- I would love to see more in-depth analysis from Whisper.
- Would be very cool if Gong could automatically scan calls for certain phrases and then automatically add them to their respective folder in the library!
- The call recording, plain and simple. It allows for real time scenarios to be used in role plays.
- The trackers which allow me to see the trends in what my team is saying and if it is working
- Alerts for when a new call is made
- I have better insight into whether or not a new hire is going to be successful, thus saving time with people who may not be a good fit.
- I can pinpoint areas of improvement for my team, thus decreasing ramp time.
- I can show real life examples when leading trainings.
They don't have a translation feature which won't work for us since we are a global company.

Using Gong.io
We use gong to track the progress of new hires. I listen to all sales calls in order to identify areas of improvement or strengths. We use Gong as a tool for learning where we will listen to calls together as a team and give feedback on how the rep did. I use the library of calls to reference back to during onboarding and will assign calls to my new hires so they can learn real life scenarios.
