Zego seeks new sales engagement platform after configuration failures and Salesforce sync errors

The problem

Zego's sales team lacked robust sales engagement capabilities for their LDRs. The platform they adopted to fill that gap could not be configured to match Zego's unique data requirements, and persistent Salesforce sync errors required weekly support escalations, blocking the planned rollout to account executives.

First attempt

The unnamed sales engagement platform Zego adopted failed during implementation — it could not be configured for Zego's unique data requirements and produced persistent Salesforce sync errors, prompting weekly support calls and causing Zego to abandon the planned AE rollout entirely.
