Considered Both Products
Allego Revenue Enablement Platform
Chose Allego Revenue Enablement Platform
Allego has the below advantages vs. Salesforce. 1. We call through the software & calls are automatically captured along with the call records & captured as tasks completed. 2. We use call coaching from the recorded calls to enable our team to improve further. Salesforce is …
Chose Allego Revenue Enablement Platform
We considered these products but they did not seem as adaptable to our purposes
Chose Allego Revenue Enablement Platform
Aleego stood out because of the value for the money and the problems they can solve. Their customer service is great.
Chose Allego Revenue Enablement Platform
we have not used any other platform
Chose Allego Revenue Enablement Platform
Allego is easier to use, more engaging for the user, and easier for the administrator. Our teams have leveraged this tool more than other tools we've tried.
Chose Allego Revenue Enablement Platform
I was not personally involved in the purchase of Allego, but came to the organization shortly after. I would say that Allego stacks up to both Gong and Litmos pretty well with a few differences.
Gong is a little more robust when it comes to the functionality of call …
Chose Allego Revenue Enablement Platform
You have more creative control and do not have to go through their team to make changes. Cost to create courses went from $5 - 8,000 to virtually nothing as now we can build our own courses or programs without assistance or excessive cost.
Chose Allego Revenue Enablement Platform
It's 50/50. Allego offers functionality that others do not (video creation and simple sharing), and others offer functionality that Allego does not (contact management, integration with loan origination software). It just comes down to what the tool is going to be used for. …
Chose Allego Revenue Enablement Platform
The ability to drop and drag documents to the needed location within Allego was a game changer for me. As well as utilizing the ability to notify users within the system itself, prior I had to send emails to users. The efficiency of this system has really been a time saver.
Chose Allego Revenue Enablement Platform
Allego is much more independent. I did not use CD2 much, however from input from previous users, we have more control with Allego, and more ownership in our own content.
Chose Allego Revenue Enablement Platform
I do not currently use, but it is used by others.
Chose Allego Revenue Enablement Platform
Better features, pricing and customer support.
Chose Allego Revenue Enablement Platform
We chose to replace Google Drive with Allego because of Allego's custom tagging system, ensuring content is far more findable and thus gets used more.
Chose Allego Revenue Enablement Platform
Allego has many more functionalities — virtual exercises, searchable library, recording video direct from platform, to name a few — and can act as a single source of truth for company learning. Our previous platform only let us create lessons to follow and didn’t allow for …
Chose Allego Revenue Enablement Platform
This is the first program of this type that I have used.
Chose Allego Revenue Enablement Platform
We evaluated two other platforms, Boco and Acto. At the time we felt the video coaching aspect at Allego better suited our needs and was more user friendly. When we considered Acto, we were interested in the micro-learning capabilities, but after seeing how Allego had evolved …
Chose Allego Revenue Enablement Platform
N/A. We have not evaluated other programs as a Allego has satiated our needs
Yesware
Chose Yesware
Yesware had a lot more accurate tracking than Sendgrid and had a great integration with Salesforce to track who was sent emails. Sendgrid had no way of tracking and became hard to manage who we had sent emails. Sendgrid did help to maintain domain health and allow for far more …
Chose Yesware
Groove has a simple and more user-friendly interface. It also allows mass emails to be sent more easily. Yesware provides this as well but some of the features were off - like the preview ones. It just needs an interface update. I believe if this feature was fixed, Yesware …
Chose Yesware
Yesware is far superior to the free or included-in CRM email trackers I have tried over the year; it is just more accurate and tracks the opens more reliably,
and can filter out your opens and opens from people in your own organization so you don't get any false positive results.
Chose Yesware
Our team evaluated Salesloft, Saleshandy, RightInbox, and Boomerang. We felt that the Yesware integration with GMail was simple and unobtrusive. While none of these tools integrate directly with our CRM, Yesware's ability to upload contacts via .csv files helped ease that pain …
Chose Yesware
I preferred using Yesware to Outreach in terms of the templates themselves because with Yesware as an end user I could still customize the messaging and make the email sound like me. With Outreach templates were locked down so end users could not change any of the messaging and …
Chose Yesware
WE were looking for a sophisticated tool to solve our outbound efforts and one name keep popping up. Outreach. We tried to set up meetings with them but they discovered us over an email and told us that someone from my org tried to look for their solution however it is not best …
Chose Yesware
We use both Yesware and Moosend and they each serve their own purpose. Yesware is better suited for plain text emails, whereas Moosend is best for HTML emails. They do work together sometimes when we need our counselors to have access to an email we built in Moosend when we …
Chose Yesware
I've had deliverability issues with Mixmax and downtime issues with Apollo. No real service issues using Yesware, but it does lack in some features behind the two. Ultimately, deliverability was the most important factor for me in choosing Yesware. I like Mixmax's ability …
Chose Yesware
I think they compliment one another. While Outreach also provides great analytics, Yesware is more seamless.
Chose Yesware
We ended up changing from Yesware to Groove due to some functionality and integrations we needed like SFDC and LinkedIn Sales Navigator. We wanted to be able to track inmails and upload LISN leads automatically.
Chose Yesware
I found Yesware and Streak to be fairly comparable but Yesware's data analytics were superior.
Chose Yesware
Yesware is much more reliable compared to others. The tracking feature is the most outstanding feature of this software which is not provided to the same extent by other software. Users can track each and every email, whether email has been opened or not, which device has been …
Chose Yesware
Yesware was the only product that we evaluated. We thought about using Hubspot in tandem with it, but realized this was unnecessary.
Chose Yesware
I evaluated both Yesware and Salesloft. I found that Salesloft offered a ton of additional features that weren't necessary for our needs and had a price point to reflect the additional functionality. Yesware fits our needs with its product offering and price.
Chose Yesware
Yesware is much more efficient than its competitors and gives much more real-time results compared to SalesLoft for example that in my experience has lagged. Yesware is much more dynamically priced as well which makes it easy to fit any business's needs. We selected Yesware for …
Chose Yesware
Yesware is extremely limited in functionality compared to something like SalesLoft, which is a much more comprehensive tool. We originally moved to Yesware from SalesForce Inbox and Engage as that did not offer the flexibility to deploy templates and was much more cumbersome …
Chose Yesware
Yesware is so much simpler to use. Because of the integrations and how easy it is to use it actually gets used by our team. I've used many systems like this in the past and nothing gets used as much as Yesware.
Chose Yesware
Yesware is less robust than Outreach. Outreach might be overkill for your needs. Outreach is a great SDR tool. Yesware is great for strategic email outreach.
Chose Yesware
I like both of these systems. YesWare did feel pretty easy for most sales reps to use and implement into their workflows.
Chose Yesware
We had previously used HubSpot Sales. Yesware provides more detailed tracking analytics than HubSpot Sales.
Chose Yesware
Yesware is simple. There is less of a hassle upon implementing it and setting up multiple users. The pricing is also much more reasonable and pragmatic. Hubspot was overly complicated and not as specialized, trying to do too much instead of perfecting one aspect. With Yesware …
Chose Yesware
We use both and outreach has more functionality in terms of automation but it is 3-4X the pricing which is why I still stick with Yesware for a majority of my teams.

You get out of Allego what you put into a Allego. We are a two-person training team with other job responsibilities. Allego requires a driver of content as content will not just create itself nor will people be apt to just film a video themselves. As easy as the software is to use it requires manual planning and execution to ensure consistent content. If you have a good content calendar and planned and hold subject matter experts accountable as well as Sales Management, you will have a robust platform where all users benefit.

Yesware has had the best deliverability of all the email senders I've used (beating Mixmax, Apollo, GMass). Yesware is perfect for sales teams sending outbound. It's not well suited for sending marketing campaigns/newsletters. It's great for startups/SMBs/early mid-market companies on the Premium team for sales teams <10. I haven't experienced the enterprise option, but for small teams it's hard to beat.

Pros
  • Allows us to quickly and easily capture and share information with sales teams who are on the go
  • Provides an archive of content where users can go back and review and can be used for ongoing training
  • The customer success team is very helpful in supporting our initiatives and giving us best practices
Read full review
  • Personalization- Yesware does a great job at allowing you to customize and edit emails in a way that allows you to send a mass amount, but still have them feel like you spent a lot of time personalizing each one. Allows you to move faster and more efficient.
  • Tracking and reporting- the tracking and reporting is very detailed, clear and concise. Allowing you to gain insight into how well your emails are doing in terms of open rates, clicks and reply's. This is extremely helpful for testing out different subject lines and email copy to find out what emails are the most successful and why.
  • It is all around easy to use- does not require much training on the tool, if at all. Easy to navigate and set up through Salesforce. Any member of your team can use it to their advantage and hit the ground running very quickly.

Cons
  • We have yet to discover something about the system we don't like.
  • If hard-pressed to find a flaw, it would be that whomever authors content, the content is tied to that individual; however, Allego has the capability to "reassign" content to a different author when needed.

  • We don't use Yesware's dialer tool because it doesn't measure up to the quality or speed of their competitors
  • Yesware has kept on a legacy tool, 'MailMerge' which is essentially duplicative to the main tool 'Campaigns', but has one neat feature that allows us to 'CC' another recipient, which is useful we want to reach out to two people at the same account
  • Yesware makes sure that users don't add the same prospect to multiple email/call campaigns, but it does not offer that safety measure across users, so theoretically, two sales/marketing reps can be reaching out to the same person

We love Allego and the various wasy we can use it. It has been a game changer for our team in helping them stand out from the competition.

I like the product, but due to the limitations I don't love it. I'm curious to revisit other options, particularly in lieu of Yesware's recent price increases (although I'm on a legacy plan). Some of my challenges to be browser related (I'm on an older computer) -- I'll have to see how things go when I receive my new computer. If the glitches (especially with regard to tracking accuracy and send later feature) go away, I'd be much more inclined to renew

Pretty good overall, but again it needs some tweaks to ensure user frustration is kept to a minimum. This would go back to the autosave feature I mentioned which would immediately be a value add but not something that should need a user to move into a paid tier.

Because it deserves this rating. The features and functionality provided are great. Our Sales team is very satisfied with this software as it integrates very well with our other software like Outlook, Salesforce, etc. Yesware provides great follow up with customers, which is essential for sales. Meeting scheduling is also flawless.

I was not personally involved in the purchase of Allego, but came to the organization shortly after. I would say that Allego stacks up to both Gong and Litmos pretty well with a few differences. Gong is a little more robust when it comes to the functionality of call intelligence and coaching and has a little more to offer when it comes to syncing up to Salesforce. But doesn't have the content storage or LMS capability. Litmos has the badging capability that Allego does not, but it didn't have the CI and content storage like Allego does

WE were looking for a sophisticated tool to solve our outbound efforts and one name keep popping up. Outreach. We tried to set up meetings with them but they discovered us over an email and told us that someone from my org tried to look for their solution however it is not best suited. I replied, that I would still like to look at their tool to understand if this could solve our newly created team for outbound but they decided not to move onto a demo as not having Salesforce kinda was a deal-breaker for them. Hence, we decided to stick to Yesware as we thought it solved our problem, and outreach maybe just looks for Enterprise level customers.

Return on Investment
  • We use it as a CRM for our customer interactions. This tool allows us to manage our customers efficiently.
  • We call through the software, and calls are automatically captured along with the call records and captured as tasks completed.
  • We use call coaching from the recorded calls to enable our team to improve further.
  • Data upload of the past customer records are very cumbersome.
  • UI is not in the same level as the market leaders like Salesforce etc,
Read full review
  • I think net positive ROI from generating meetings that lead to closed deals. Ultimately very difficult to quantify the ROI since it is essentially automating a lot of the manual prospecting done by BDRs/AEs - so ROI is likely higher than just that quantifiable number around deals closed.
