What to evaluate
Five criteria separate platforms worth paying for from dashboards in disguise.
Methodology scoring. Out-of-the-box MEDDIC, BANT, SPICED, MEDDPICC, custom. Generic scoring underperforms.
Coverage.Every call scored, not 5 sampled. Manual review caps at 5–10% of calls per rep.
CRM automation. Two-way structured sync with Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive. Free-text export is not enough.
Languages. Global teams need 50+ supported languages with accent detection.
Pricing transparency. Published pricing or third-party benchmark. Quote-based opacity is a red flag.

Why Gong isn't on this list

How to run a vendor trial
Three questions to ask every vendor.
- Can the trial start within a week without a 6-month commitment?
- Does the scoring work against our specific methodology, or is it generic?
- What does the CRM update accuracy look like on real calls?
Vendors who stall on any of these are signaling their actual implementation timeline.
