Gong vs. Groove, a Clari company

Gong is an excellent tool for tracking customer interactions with your team whether it be through e-mail or phone calls. It also provides an excellent format for scoring the calls your individual contributors are making. Researching interactions through artificial intelligence provides a ton of hours of time saved for our team. It is not a replacement for your CRM or source of truth

When Groove was able to notify me that the other party already seen the email is pretty nice. It help us a lot to prepare what they will have to say. It will also help our business to grow more since they know that we are professionally waiting for them to reply.

Gong is one of the best if not the best tools we have in or tech stack in terms of ROI and ease of use. The ai features that have been released over the past year have continued to add value and are not just shiny new features that don't get used. It is also an easy to use platform for our sales and customer success reps, takes very little time to become proficient in. The deal boards also provide great visibility into opps for management and leadership

Groove is integral to our process and we're glad the price is affordable. The only way we would replace Groove is if the price went up or our C-suite decides to want a took that goes beyond Sales Enablement and Sales Automation

I gave it a 9 here because Gong is well-suited for being a one-stop-shop for call listening as a while. The reason I didn't rate it a 10 is the UI can sometimes be a bit tough to navigate and figure out where to do certain actions.

Groove is incredibly easy to use, and is flexible enough to use in a way that suits each rep. With the Omnibar, it can be used directly from Outlook, or reps can use it directly in the Groove platform itself. You can use their built-in dialer, email functionality, and even some LInkedIn messages.

I give them a 10 because, I have been using Gong for over a year now and have never had issues or concerns go un resolved in a day or two. Their communication is impeccable and their tech support is very hands on and prompt

Our Groove representative has been very attentive the the needs of our sales teams. They are always available to provide training for new employees and refreshers for members of the team who have been slow to adopt. The online support is also very good, I have had several questions answered quickly using the online support chat function.

Gong has by far the most comprehensive information about each call, and integrates the best with our CRM: Salesforce. Not only that, but the call recording itself is the least intrusive, and it is automatically added to every external call that our team creates.

Groove's integration with Salesforce is its primary differentiator. Outreach/Salesloft cater to all CRMs and their sync with SFDC has a delay, requires additional configuration, and is often frustrating for admins. Salesforce Sales Engagement (formerly High Velocity Sales) also has a native integration (with no sync), but Groove is easier to use for the typical sales manager/sales rep end user. With Sales Engagement, I would be needed to help build functionality and alleviate issues, whereas with Groove, our users are much more self-sufficient.

Our organization was able to quickly scale Groove from a pilot group of a few users to a department-wide solution

• Saves hours per week by delivering actionable/useful info from Salesforce into Gmail
