Overall Satisfaction with Gong

I lead onboarding and training sessions for a computer software company. Gong allows us to record each training and send it to the customer so that they can review the material at their own pace and share it with other members of their team who weren't able to attend. I also appreciate how we can review a transcript of the call highlighted with follow-up items that we need.

Pros

  • Call recording
  • Voice to text transcription
  • Identifying key words
  • Call analytics

Cons

  • Folder organization
  • Voice to text is not always correct
  • Greater alignment across teams
  • Save time on training and enablement
  • More quickly review follow up items after a call
It would be nice if the call recording was available more quickly after each call. I need to wait 10-15 minutes after the call for the recording to be available so that I can send it to the customer. It would also be nice if it was easier to auto-tag calls and sort them automatically into folders.
The Gong video library is much easier to navigate. I like that everything is saved in one place that I can navigate instead of separate video files that I have to download. I also think it's really cool that our whole company can access and watch each other's meetings and videos. I sometimes watch videos of customer calls with the sales team when an account is being passed to me to get a better idea of what they've already discussed with our teams, and I'll watch calls where coworkers have discussed similar topics to what I'm working on to train myself on different subject areas. I enjoy how Gong promotes greater transparency within the company and greater collaboration between teams as a result.

Gong is a great tool for customer-facing teams. It's designed for sales teams to be able to track progress with client prospects and review call analytics, which is something that it does particularly well. I also find a lot of value from it in professional services, as it gives us the ability to quickly share training sessions and meetings with the customer. It's also helpful for internal meetings, as Gong allows you to quickly go back and reference team meeting recordings along with the transcription notes.
