Outreach vs. Clari Copilot

Outreach is well-suited for organizations that want to send bulk sales prospecting emails and need a platform that can enhance domain and email deliverability. It is less suitable for organizations that don't use email prospecting or have fewer than 500 customers or prospects.

For the overall monitoring of sales calls and validating claims, it is a great tool and does exactly what we need. A change that would be great would be the ability to set a condition for any member on the system to either be able to download transcripts or prohibit downloading transcripts without them needing to be made admins. We have the finance department that often needs access to the transcripts as evidence in Stripe disputes, but they have to be made an admin to be able to download the transcript even though they don't actively use Wingman except for downloading transcripts.

• Building sequences, using a omni channel approach.
• Detailed report of each team members activity (email, calling, socials etc.)
• Clear overview of prospect and account summary.
• Straight to the point menu navigation.
• Email outbox, very useful for analysing low hanging fruit.
• Good integration with other tools.

Incentivized

• Filtering calls by keywords - saves you time so that you don't have to listen to entire calls.
• Creating game tapes - so that you can easily onboard new team members.
• Great support team (love for Sushma).
• Much cheaper than competitors.

• When sequencing, I need to mark multiple leads, and using the search bar, it will uncheck all the leads that were previously checked.
• Calls drop constantly.
• Syncing contacts and leads with SF is challenging. The buttons to synchronize with CRM are available when searching for a contact or lead, but you cannot sync it when viewing the lead or contact itself.

Incentivized

• Searching for specific calls (you can scroll through the list, but that takes time)
• The dashboard isn't as user friendly as it could be, but a seasoned user can navigate it just fine
• The AI-driven insights aren't always accurate but are still very useful nonetheless

Based simply on cost savings, it would make the most sense for us to utilize Salesforce Sales Engagement moving forward. We already pay for access as part of our contract and it would provide more users with access to a sales automation tool. Upon vetting its capabilities, we've determined it can effectively replicate the core functionality that we get out of Outreach.

I think Wingman is one of the best software in their segment. Very few companies are cost-effective and offer similar solutions.

Being in a role that required me to do a lot of prospecting, I spent more time in Outreach than any other platform. It had everything within that I needed to be successful in my role. It was extremely customizable and easy to learn. There were occasional bugs, but nothing that kept me from doing my job.

Super user friendly tool! There are some features that I think might be improved over time, like navigation assistance or tutorials, and quick tips, like how to ensure calls always get recorded, how to add Wingman to calls last-minute, or how to use their playlist feature Game Tapes, but those are nice to haves, not need to haves.

For the most part Outreach is always available. There are sometimes when they do a new update, and things might get glitchy for a couple of days. They usually fix it very quickly. Same thing if the dialer goes out or something. It is always handled in a timely manner.

Incentivized

Outreach's performance overall is very high quality. Pages load right away. Occasionally it might take a minute to generate a report, but not any slower than in other platforms I've used. Outreach is integrated into many of our other tools and seems to be a very clean integration. Everything runs very quickly.

Incentivized

There is almost zero customer support. What they do offer is a live chat feature which is active during "normal" business hours which is nice for instant inquiries if someone is available. However, you do not have a dedicated representative to address questions or concerns and their billing process is confusing and messy without any support.

Wingman is always quick and thorough with their support and often offer to proactively connect on Zoom. I love that.

We were trained in person and it was very easy to understand. And if we missed any pointers there was more training given to us. So i always like this tool. The drafts were also prepared for us to sync outreach with our devices so it was straightforward. Highly recommend

Incentivized

Lots of attention from the Outreach training team, with a great willingness to customize to our needs. To be clear, you get out what you put in. If you don't work with them, you'll get cookie-cutter training. But we asked for a lot of customization, and they delivered what we asked for.

I expected more assistance in connecting Outreach with Salesforce. We have a basic connection, but many fields were left without a sync. We can apparently sync data without adding the app into Salesforce, but believe we could get more functionality with a better integration. The basics of setting up our sequences and using Outreac to run them was was fine.

I wasn't directly involved but no news is good news in our organization for topics like this!

They're not direct competitors, but they share many of the same functionalities. Gong has a greater focus on spoken communications, such as calls and demos, rather than emails. I think Gong also has stronger AI capabilities at the moment. However, I don't believe so, Gong would be ideal for prospecting and mass outreach, as Outreach is. Outreach is more suitable for exploration and outbound communications management, whereas Gong is better suited for deal and pipeline management and analysis.

We evaluated wingman, Gong and chorus. Settled on Wingman because of their features and then being cost effective as well. I've used Gong before in an earlier organization but would vouch for Wingman over Gong primarily because Gong is very expensive. Wingman provides the best bang for buck in the sales intelligence ecosystem

It has flexible permissions which allows to designate certain non-admins to build out sequences or add or remove people, which allows one main admin to handle the more technical end, while allowing team leads to build out sequences for other team members, allowing everyone to play to their relative strengths, while not allowing for chaos if everyone had full permissions

Incentivized

• Increase in meetings booked
• Increase in call metrics as it is easy to make more calls using Outreach features. Basically cutting down admin work time before the call.
• Prospect journey and experience has been a positive flowing through a set amount of emails and calls rather than just being blasted with random emails. Helps BDRS stay focused on more important parts of the job.

Incentivized

• It's made me more confident on a call, because if I forget something it doesn't matter.
• It's enabled me to be more concise in my follow-up's referring to specific points from the call.
• It's provided some absolute gems when clients have shared media plans showing competitors etc.
