Account Executive (Medium Business) at a computer software company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Call reviews have boosted follow-ups and coaching but still need richer local insights and training
One of the things that I mentioned is the information that Gong has here in Brazil. I think there are other generative AIs that have good information, providing good information about the companies. Gong in this field is a bit not ahead. It has to improve more. One point that I would like to see in Gong in the future would be to have more information about Brazilian companies that could help our life in sales. Gong should be more updated and be more full of information about our specific market. The points that I already mentioned, which are the updates and the information updates that are not really updated, are why it wouldn't be a 10. Another point of not being a 10 is the training that we have from Gong. I've never seen a person from Gong talking with us, giving us training or providing videos or training specific for sales in Gong. It depends on us to navigate in Gong, but we don't have much information and training that I think would be nice for us to have.

Crowdsourced knowledge has grown into a trusted customer hub and now supports richer adoption journeys
One inconvenience is that because we are crowdsourced, we have hundreds of contributors every year, with most people only submitting one article, maybe two, so it does not make sense to pay for licenses for all of those people. This leads to some intermediary manual copy-paste processes because we just cannot have everybody working in the system itself, making it a little bit problematic for maintaining a source of truth. The main issues with NICE CXone are the lack of ability to integrate with some internal things that we want to do; it has to do with the way the system is designed, which is complex. We wanted to integrate with our internal system for instant translations, and we were not able to do that, along with a couple of other things that illustrate that it is kind of an isolated system to itself, making it pretty hard to tap into and grow even further. There are a couple of little issues with reporting that have not been very good, but really, the system is very functional.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Gong records all our calls, giving us feedback and creating a central platform for communication within our company."
"Using the AI, Gong summarizes calls, gives notes, suggests follow-up emails, and provides useful statistics like talking time and sentiment scores."
"Gong has impacted my organization positively in a huge way because it gives me insight into what customers are saying, saves me a ton of time by not having to be on calls all day, and really helps direct and influence our marketing based on customer voice and the feedback and questions that come up for the sales teams."
"The call recording feature is beneficial because it allows me to remember everything from a call, including slides shared, topics discussed, and next steps."
"Gong has positively impacted my organization hugely, as we run pipeline meetings from Gong and I can ask questions around MEDDIC and MEDDPICC while getting better visibility and more predictable revenue."
"Gong has positively impacted my organization overall in terms of people not having to carry pen and paper, which they use regularly during meetings."
"Gong has positively impacted my organization because as customer success managers and sales team members, we all have quite a few accounts."
"Gong has positively impacted my organization by improving efficiency, helping our renewal rate, and enabling us to analyze and share client touchpoints internally to quickly address cross-departmental issues that might affect retention."
"MindTouch seemed to deliver the complete package, and we've not looked back."
"Because of the simplicity and the reliability, NICE CXone is a very nice, easy-to-use product."
"NICE CXone has positively impacted my organization by seamlessly joining our calls without any call drops, allowing me to listen to a call with ease, and making everything really easy to use and self-explanatory."
"Customer support is terrific. The team is personable, informed, and responsive."
"The technical support for NICE CXone is outstanding."
"NICE CXone has impacted my organization positively by empowering managers, team leaders, and supervisors to be more autonomous and to proactively manage their team in real time."
"It is easy to look up and playback calls with this system as it categorizes the different types of calls that come through my call center. I like that inContact is always updating and continues to improve. The quality of its recorded calls is among the best that I have had experience with."
"I have found the ease of use of the ACD to be most valuable along with the inView dashboard."
 

Cons

"I wish the AI summaries were more accurate, and it would be nice if there were a way to include what a customer says about a specific topic in the AI summary."
"I find that Gong's AI features are still not there yet, especially when it comes to call follow-up or mutual action plans."
"Gong does not integrate well within Microsoft Teams calendars; sometimes the extension gets missed out and it does not get added to the meetings easily, so that is the major drawback that I have seen across."
"I think there are other generative AIs that have good information, providing good information about the companies. Gong in this field is a bit not ahead; it has to improve more."
"I would improve the interface for searching themes or words in the history of calls and emails."
"Gong could be improved with a little bit better AI on the follow-ups, as I still find myself using Gong AI-generated follow-up emails with my own parameters in ChatGPT."
"These features might actually exist, but I never really use them since when I did, they weren't great."
"Gong can be improved with the follow-up email feature."
"I think that there could be improvements in the actual structuring and formatting of content, i.e., when creating topics and guides in MindTouch."
"The development tools in NICE CXone could be better, as there are some pain points."
"I have noticed that occasionally the dashboard will freeze and some things may get stuck for a while."
"If you have hundreds of books, the initial download is slow."
"It is a hassle, if you are busy and caught up with something, that it will log you out."
"One of the biggest missing pieces is a link checker."
"There are times when the data does not load and you have to keep hitting refresh. More colors and different layouts should be included in the next release."
"Occasionally, the system runs slow and will kick us out of Max, which then has to be restarted, and can cause issues as our call center deals with time sensitive phone calls."
