Great Sales Tool!
What do you like best about the product?
Incredible tool for ramping or onboarding new reps and training with having a database of calls to review at your own pace. I have used in team settings to review calls and is effective. I also enjoy the word analytics that makes it easy to go back and review a call visually. We use it to make sure we are saying certain phrases on every call to advance the sales process.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not as useful if not deployed with other sales enablement tools, ie a dialer or Outreach like program. Other than that, there isn't much not to like, its always in the background and you can rely on it for notes. There are some issues very occasionally with connecting to the Webex or Hangout but nothing major.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Most effective note taker so you are able to engage more in the conversation and can review the call at a later date. I also usually use it to send recording of demos to prospects especially if someone isn't able to attend the session. It can also be a great tool to self coach and see/hear what kinds of tendencies, good or bad, that you have during a call. As new reps come on, instead of having to sit on each and every single call they can, they are able to access a library of calls at their fingertips.
Enhance your sales calls with Gong
What do you like best about the product?
I have weekly one on ones with my manager and we go through one call each week to discuss the positives and negatives. It has definitely helped with my sales.
What do you dislike about the product?
I honestly dont use it for many of the analytics so im not really sure how they work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have been able to work on my up front contracts with customers along with other sandler sales methodologies.
Great tool for sales reps

What do you dislike about the product?
- Inability to easily delete calls out of library (i.e. prospect doesn't show up to call and there is a 5 minute video clip of me waiting) that will throw off stats/averages.
- Actually listening to full calls in review rarely happens and is extremely time consuming

Recommendations to others considering the product:
It works well
Great tool for our reps & managers
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of admin ability - integrates with CRM & other tools (Zoom) seamlessly
Easy to set up trackers (keywords) for Gong to track so reps can go to that specific part of the call with a click of a button
Reps love the ability to listen and not have to take detailed notes now
Managers love being able to listen in on calls they weren't able to attend and speed of the playback
Reps are a fan of being able to comment & request coaching feedback & the ability to loop in other
Great for sharing snippets to other departments to further deals - Customer success & pre-sales orgs can benefit greatly from this data as they are not usually on all of the sales calls. It's also great for reps to be able to share call recordings with the customer after the call, thus allowing the customer to share it with other people on their team who might not have been able to make the call.

What do you dislike about the product?
CRM data is the source of truth so overwrites hierarchy at times and is a struggle to revert back to the correct hierarchy - can turn this off, but then requires a higher level of manual work to manage users and teams
Didn't have the best roll-out plan & continuous enablement for a larger org of our size.
Limited features/data governance controls around email capture, redaction & call ingestion - in theory, what they have is great, but not fully baked out yet & doesn't meet the needs of a global org
It is very pricey compared to other tools out there and some would argue that the other features may not be worth the high seat cost of Gong.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting insights into our sales calls - trends, competitor analysis, etc
Allowing reps to listen more closely to the customer
Productivity increase for reps & managers
Gong additionally gives us intel into how the market is doing as a whole as we can track keywords and then export that data and use it for analysis
We now use Gong as a content repository and use it to speed up onboarding of new reps as they can search through the calls and go to the corresponding folder to listen in on a wide variety of calls.
Gong also sines the light on skill gaps across teams - which allow us to quickly identify, and then coach & enable on these gaps in the future

I'd recommend getting a detailed roll-out plan for your org
Teamwork makes the dreamwork
What do you like best about the product?
Gong makes sharing insights and best practices with my team easier than its ever been
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of ability to merge call audio with video, sometimes calls can be difficult to find if the salesforce data isnt precise
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We gained the ability to draw big picture insights and best practices for the entire sales floor by identifying common issues and successes.
Best platform for Sales Training
What do you like best about the product?
Automated statistics and features that add value by delivering key metrics. The product itself is very intuitive for the user and does not require specific training. Call quality is great and the ability to increase speed of the call saves a ton of time for a reviewer. Overall, I don't think there is another platform on the market that can deliver the same results as Gong. I would highly recommend this product for your teams as they look to improve in sales training.
What do you dislike about the product?
Call transcripts can be off a majority of the time which doesn't sound like a huge deal but when you review a large number of calls or want to share a transcript with your team it does become troublesome. Also, there is a small delay in providing real-time data. However, this is understandable for the amount of automatic data generated once it is available for review.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Improving sales training by using data to determine best practices. As a team, we are able to review calls at a higher rate which intern helps us to improve our craft and help our co-workers. Having information about talk ratio, successful talk points lead to improved talk tracks and ultimately increased sales.
Great Sales Tool!
What do you like best about the product?
Gong.io has a fun and intuitive user interface. With no training, my sales reps had already started to figure out how to use the tool and glean insights from the data. We also love the integration with Salesforce and are leveraging it against our Salesforce data for even deeper insights on behaviors of both our inside and outside sales teams.
What do you dislike about the product?
Reporting engine is not as robust as I would have liked. Additionally, when records are sent into Salesforce, they are all owned by the integration user, and not the actual sales rep who completed the call. If that issue was fixed, it would be a huge improvement for us.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We want more insights into sales rep activity and behavior. After our organization started using Gong, we have seen improved metrics on sales rep activity, as well as our ability to use those call recordings for coaching and training purposes.
