When Groove was able to notify me that the other party already seen the email is pretty nice. It help us a lot to prepare what they will have to say. It will also help our business to grow more since they know that we are professionally waiting for them to reply.

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.

Pros
  • Groove lets us know real-time when a client has checked an email we sent them.
  • Groove helps us streamline our day-to-day events, meetings, and tasks with the help of the Calendar Booking feature.
  • Groove helps us save a lot of time on typing long letters when we explain our products to our customers with the help of their Templates feature.

  • 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.

  • 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.

Groove is integral to our process and we're glad the price is affordable. The only way we would replace Groove is if the price went up or our C-suite decides to want a took that goes beyond Sales Enablement and Sales Automation

Usability
Groove is incredibly easy to use, and is flexible enough to use in a way that suits each rep. With the Omnibar, it can be used directly from Outlook, or reps can use it directly in the Groove platform itself. You can use their built-in dialer, email functionality, and even some LInkedIn messages.

Support Rating
Our Groove representative has been very attentive the the needs of our sales teams. They are always available to provide training for new employees and refreshers for members of the team who have been slow to adopt. The online support is also very good, I have had several questions answered quickly using the online support chat function.

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.

It was okay. But, just the once. I had to figure it out with help of others on my team.

Groove's integration with Salesforce is its primary differentiator. Outreach/Salesloft cater to all CRMs and their sync with SFDC has a delay, requires additional configuration, and is often frustrating for admins. Salesforce Sales Engagement (formerly High Velocity Sales) also has a native integration (with no sync), but Groove is easier to use for the typical sales manager/sales rep end user. With Sales Engagement, I would be needed to help build functionality and alleviate issues, whereas with Groove, our users are much more self-sufficient.

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

Return on Investment
  • Reduced several hours a week of logging time in Salesforce that either wouldn't get done or would have been done to the detriment of more value add activities.
  • Saves hours per week by delivering actionable/useful info from Salesforce into Gmail
  • Gives me valuable insight on what emails are being opened and read. This helps plan targeting.

  • 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.
