Influitive returns to Gong after competitor lacked deal intelligence and analytics

After switching from Gong to a competitor, Influitive lost the bird's-eye view of their sales cycle—deal management became harder, finding insights was difficult, and the team was left with only a basic call recording tool.

Outcome

Returning to Gong restored full sales cycle visibility, enabled automated training triggers for a new cross-sell initiative, and gave leadership direct analytics on team OKR adoption and unfiltered customer feedback for product and marketing teams.

What failed first

The competitor solution was not built with the sales rep in mind and offered only basic call recording, without the deal management, pipeline visibility, or analytics that Gong provided.
