ConnectAndSell vs. Mixmax

ConnectAndSell is incredibly helpful when it comes to getting people on the phone. In the world of sales, dials and connects are king and connect and sell works great to hit these two points. The ability to create lists is great, however, I would like to see more customizable options available for end-users to play around with.

Mixmax is very well suited for sharing calendar availability via email with a client. Multiple time blocks can be shared, and the bridge between Gmail and other colleagues allows you to hold a meeting time on calendars to prevent overbooking with colleagues. This is extremely helpful when scheduling a large call and juggling many people's schedules.

• The amazing piece is that you can leave a voicemail with each of those calls and really only need to focus in on the calls that patch through.
• One thing that has been absolutely amazing about Connect and Sell is the amount of call volume you can get in a single day. We used to start out by having 40 calls a day to now exceeding 200 calls going out.
• It's been a product that we weren't sure of the business impact but we've already seen results from producing more conversations and being able to follow up with greater ease.

• The scheduling integration is really easy for email recipients. It is quite literally one-click for them to schedule an event from a meeting time list interface.
• The interface is extremely well-designed and intuitive across the board. This makes it really easy to learn their software and integrate it into your workflow.
• Their pricing is *extremely* convenient for startups. Their "starter" plan is extremely affordable (currently $9/month/user), and includes unlimited tracking, templates, reminders, automation, etc... Basically, everything you would need to upgrade your email automation workflow.

• ConnectAndSell sounds way too robotic when the prospect answers the phone
• The implementation team is terrible. Donny was a horrible leader and did a terrible job of getting us going
• They have way too many bugs they need to fix at this point

• On occasion, Mixmax fails to sync to my email and I've had to reach out to support to remedy the issue.
• Offering "link click tracking" for the lowest plan would be great for users, especially those new to the software so they can realize more of the benefits.
• For the lower plan, I wish email opens were able to be tracked when sending to multiple people in the same email.

For the right reps who are good at talking to prospects who aren't expecting their call, this is a no brainer.

I have had a few support calls with their people. They are totally reachable and helpful, sharing screens, controlling my screen, showing why things happened, not just correcting it. If you have an issue with the software, let them help. They are there for you, and they are friendly, accessible, and happy to do their job.

Every time I have reached out to Mixmax I automatically get an email from a trained professional who has perfect insight into my issue with an understandable reason to why I am having and issue offers me a solution. The wait time is only around 5 minutes and they are always offering sympathy in certain situations.

Lightning has a better success rate for connecting (in terms of it takes less time to connect using Lightning) but Lightning was definitely using shadier connecting tactics and also required the user to be focused intently when it connected you with a prospect. When using lightning, you needed to immediately speak and know your talking points while ConnectAndSell gives you better time to prepare.

Truly is easier for phone capabilities (letting customers call you back and having it go to your phone but still being a fake number), while mixmax is much better for email sending and tracking via gmail. Truly had no email capabilities when I was using it, so it was only helpful for phone. However mixmax could improve its phone capabilities

• It is a little expensive.
• It does require management to keep lead lists lean and workable.
• It is tough to keep sales people motivated on it.
• It can feel overwhelming.

• Email tracking gives me the results of emails, whether or not the client is interested when they open and read the email which makes it the best platform.
• The automated sending email is the big feature in Mixmax, the system automatically send the email on respective entries which actually saves the time and help in be productive at work.
