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.

Organized real-time customer chats have improved support efficiency and response handling
One thing I found unique about Sendbird is how smooth the real-time chat feels. It does not feel delayed or clunky. Conversations flow naturally, as though you are talking to someone in real time. If I could improve one thing, I would add more built-in analytics around conversations, such as clearer insights on response times, common issues, and agent performance. That would make it much easier to optimize support without relying on external tools. One improvement I see for Sendbird would be more flexibility in customizing the chat interface, especially around how conversations are displayed for agents. Sometimes, when handling multiple chats, having better layout controls or quick filters would make it much easier to stay organized. I also would appreciate more built-in analytics inside the platform itself, such as clearer breakdowns of response times, chat resolution rates, and common customer issues. Right now, you often need external tools to get that level of insights. Overall, it works very well, but those improvements would make the day-to-day support work much smoother and much more efficient.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Having call recordings and summaries helps our team have complete visibility into calls."
"Gong has positively impacted my organization by definitely saving time, as we have a very big focus on utilizing AI."
"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."
"Gong has positively impacted my organization by allowing anyone to be able to look into processes, learn more about what our customers are saying, learn from each other, and share things throughout the organization."
"The summaries and analysis Gong provides are really good, especially compared to some others that I get, as the analysis from Zoom is often too long and does not really hit all the main points, while Gong knows how to summarize it pretty well."
"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 because as customer success managers and sales team members, we all have quite a few accounts."
"Using the AI, Gong summarizes calls, gives notes, suggests follow-up emails, and provides useful statistics like talking time and sentiment scores."
"The Sendbird developer portal provides each step, including methods, making it easy to implement."
"Sendbird is a very strong, reliable tool when it comes to real-time communications."
"There are many useful features with Sendbird."
"Sendbird is very flexible, and they have made great strides towards optimization."
"The backend system was managed by Sendbird, eliminating the need for caching systems or local storage on user devices."
"Sendbird has positively impacted my organization because we do not have to build custom chatbots with code, and we could do no-code deployment, which is simply straightforward."
"Features similar to WhatsApp, such as online and offline statuses, message reactions, and replies, add significant value."
"Sendbird is reliable and generally crash-free."
 

Cons

"I think the external sharing might need some work, as if Gong had the ability to edit the calls."
"These features might actually exist, but I never really use them since when I did, they weren't great."
"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."
"Gong can be improved with the follow-up email feature."
"I would improve the interface for searching themes or words in the history of calls and emails."
"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."
"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."
"A major issue was the requirement for a separate connection to Sendbird, resulting in a delay when initiating the chat."
"If I could improve one thing, I would add more built-in analytics around conversations, such as clearer insights on response times, common issues, and agent performance."
"I thought that there should be the audio and the video call functionality as well."
"One area that could be improved is the handling and visibility of unread message counts."
"To improve Sendbird, it could provide features such as those in WhatsApp, including allowing users to share their current location and live location, and enabling users to keep and share their current status with others."
"More analytics tools could be integrated into Sendbird."
"Their teams could be better in sync, as I had a very bad bug wherein all three SDKs had a problematic initialization order that required a bug fix version to be released after 17 email exchanges to finally get them to agree that the fault was on their side, which was pretty painful."
"For Sendbird to be improved, I would say creating more multi-platform SDKs is essential."
