Outreach: A great tracking tool and email management software, but with a few bugs
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to setup templates, sequences, snippets and share them across the team; it's also great to effectively flip a switch and see Outreach data inside Salesforce.
What do you dislike about the product?
The system can be buggy at times, and troubleshooting with support doesn't always get the job done. I'd also like to see more customization available with fields and formats; for a system to talk to Salesforce, I'd expect a bit more customization options (as, everyone's Salesforce setups are quite different).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Email tracking, email management; we use Outreach to generate quick and easy campaigns, and it also speaks well to Salesforce which has been helpful for us.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need an email tracker that speaks to Salesforce (and, has a myriad of mappings), look no further than Outreach. The open tracker does not always work in real-time, and there are a few bugs, but Outreach is moving in a really solid direction, and I think they have a very strong product.
Client Engagement Manager Review
What do you like best about the product?
If you looking for a great implementation experience to help you get Outreach up and running quickly with no worries I found that to be the case with their client engagement team. Our CEM constantly goes out of her way to ensure our success. She was out of the office on vacation for the Christmas holidays and still offered up her help and responded quickly multiple times in her absence. My team had start-up deadlines that needed to be met before the end of the year and she helps us get there even being out of the office.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't dislike anything, but if I have one minor request it would be to have Outreach speed up their customer support response timing to your questions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Drive more meetings with prospects, help reps become more organized and productive and manage reps pipeline. We have realized all of the above and then some. I find that Outreach helps reps drive a higher performance at every stage of the sales cycle. From coaching analytics, reporting and sales intelligence Outreach give you plenty of visibility to see what's working and whats not working for a rep.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Outreach is simple to use and the reps that use it like it and see the value the tool brings to them. Reps now have a workflow to use with all their prospects that has accelerated their pipeline build.
Can't do my job without it!
What do you like best about the product?
Followup for my prospects - even those that are in opportunities!
What do you dislike about the product?
The more people that use it, the more competition I have against sales people that know how to follow up effectively:)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It takes WAY too much time rewriting follow up, and remembering to do it all the time! Use a system that serves it up for you.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Test it against other products in the market and you won't be let down!
Easy to use and effective with prospecting!
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to set up sequences based on your requirements which takes the burden of costant emails manually. Saves alot of time for outbound and follow ups.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing. Outreach has been great to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Increase in converted leads.
Improving efficiency in the user experience and follow up percentages. Losing less business just because we aren't touching them.

Outreach has not only allowed us to scale our team's size and production but has also created an organized workflow that limits prospects falling through the cracks.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
When comparing leaders in the industry the product and features offered is very similar but Outreach's customer support is incomparable. They care about each and every one of their customers.

Amazing product support, highly capable software
What do you like best about the product?
EXTREMELY responsive and helpful customer support! They are good at teaching you how to fish, so to speak, rather than fishing for you. If a process is unclear, and I reach out to them, they'll often respond with an on-the-spot video using my own templates and content to demonstrate what I need to do step-by-step, but without actually changing my content, which means I then have to go and do it myself. A good teaching method. Also, they seem highly responsive to product improvement/feature requests, coming out regularly with product upgrades.
What do you dislike about the product?
The product seems mature in some ways, immature in others. The WYSIWYG environment generally works great, and yet it will overlook standard usability interface practices or not have features that one typically finds in any WYSIWYG editor. For example, text color and text highlighting are not available. And there are occasional malfunctions or dysfunction niggles. For example, if you insert the cursor in the subject line field to create an email template and then select the {{first_name}} variable, it doesn't inserted where you asked it to in the subject line, but rather places it somewhere in the e-mail body. Lots of little minor niggles like this, stuff you can get around. But it's annoying that I have to do a lot of workarounds just to create a template.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Caveat: I'm speaking as a foot soldier here – a person who uses the system daily, not one who selected the system and is trying to drive an overall business purpose, and so I cannot speak holistically. But as a template- and sequence-creator, my business need is to ensure the consistent delivery of the overall voice and language of the company, yet do it in a very conversational, personalized tone, so that the brand is well-represented, and consistently, across the entire sales force regardless of their grammar skills or knowledge of brand identity. And the product works excellently for this. Though it takes a little work to get the hang of the system – how to set up and manipulate sequences, for instance – it is extremely powerful and capable, helping us help the sales force to juggle hundreds of balls at once, keeping on top of prospect communications in ways that would be humanly impossible without the system.
