Great tool if used correctly

The capabilities of Gong in helping leadership understand the reality of a deal, whether that be through the heartbeat of the account (how much contact there is between them and us), the use of trackers to identify trends and build enablement from as well as the coaching using Scorecards to be able to demonstrate ROI on coaching activity. Personally, I wouldn't work at a company that didn't have Gong or something similar again.

AI-Driven and Intuitive Business Insights for Sales Coaching
What do you like best about the product?
I am an SDR manager and Gong has been a game changer for me. The AI-driven insights are spot on and the summary write-ups are especially useful because they save me time while ensuring I stay on top of our pipeline deals. I also like that I can pick different speakers and listen to them only. This is a great feature because sometimes I want to know only what the prospect said.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Gong is a powerful and intuitive tool, I have ethical concerns about the company's affiliations and stance on geopolitical issues, which impact my willingness to continue using it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Super intuitive and smart platform. I can easily give feedback to my team and it helps them improve their approach and I get clear, actionable data to coach effectively.
I also don't have the time to watch 10-15 meeting records per week, which is why I like the AI-summary I receive after a call. Usually that gives me a good idea, on what was said in the call. If something is unclear or I am managing a new joiner, I'll go to the recording.

My right hand on the day to day

Centralized communication improves efficiency and training effectiveness with AI-powered insights
What is our primary use case?
We feed all of our Zoom calls through Gong. Most of my meetings aren't face-to-face; they're over Zoom. Whether my customers are in the States, in Europe, or in New Zealand, Gong records all the calls and provides feedback. It logs all calls, allowing us to comment on them and have internal discussions. For sales training calls with a customer's SDR team, I'll often record on Gong and send it to my customer as a training resource.
What is most valuable?
Gong records all our calls, giving us feedback and creating a central platform for communication within our company. It's powerful for sales training and providing resources to our customers. Using the AI, Gong summarizes calls, gives notes, suggests follow-up emails, and provides useful statistics like talking time and sentiment scores. It also transcribes calls, allowing us to search transcripts with AI for insights about the account, including sentiment in calls and emails, without relying solely on my notes. This centralization makes Gong a great tool.
What needs improvement?
I would improve the interface for searching themes or words in the history of calls and emails. Instead of scrolling through all of them, I'd prefer a more manageable list for easier navigation.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been using Gong for two years.
How are customer service and support?
How would you rate customer service and support?
How was the initial setup?
It's not my responsibility, but it's easy to learn as an end-user.
What was our ROI?
As an end-user, I'm not the one to talk about ROI. However, I think the time saved through centralization and the ease of gaining insights into accounts saves time.
What other advice do I have?
Gong is a powerful tool that I feel like I'm only scratching the surface with. Even before the AI, it was a great way to centralize and keep track of calls and accounts. With AI, summarizing calls and ensuring I don't miss anything makes it even better. I rate Gong a nine because it has been highly helpful and improved our efficiency at work. The overall rating I would give Gong is 9.
