S alesforce Sales Engagement, formerly Einstein High Velocity Sales, is a cloud-based sales engagement platform that uses artificial intelligence capabilities to increase sales productivity.
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.
HVS comes across as an early stage cadence management too and feels steps behind competitors in the space. It has great integration with Salesforce, being a Salesforce-owned platform this makes sense. It does a nice job making it easy to move between cadences with a clean list and sublisting design. This is largely where the benefits of HVS end. Currently, it is severely lacking features of some of the other cadence management tools. It is difficult to access important information like call notes, call disposition and history of outreach. It's there -- it's not easy to quick glance and see. A couple other misses are lacking account news -- Salesforce has account news on a tab but it rarely seems to pull press releases or relevant information. It really needs the ability to sort prospects within a cadence by account, time zone, or even by tag/star/priority. There is no simple way to see statistics from outreach across the board on a micro or macro level -- particularly without having the proper reports or dashboards setup for you in SF. Overall, HVS is functional but not bringing a lot of the luxury features that feel built in with other tools. The lack of these features does not make it impossible to get work done but it does affect productivity and the ability to move quickly during prospecting and outreach blocks. The only silver lining, and one that does not bring a lot of comfort at this exact moment, is that this is a Salesforce property. I can only imagine that SF has its eye on improving HVS and turning it into a really effective, highly competitive outreach tool.
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.
Loads of room for improvement; the entire UI, in fact. Please make it easier to make edits after a cadence has been activated, add prospects to cadences, and create the cadences in the first place.
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.
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
We've had to return to ZoomInfo Engage, since High Velocity Sales hasn't worked out for us. HVS should be well suited for automated email responses and cadences. However, we have been unable to get it to work as we would like it to. Engage is not a great program either, but the simpleness has made it more effective for our current use case.
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.
