How can I change the name of each caller? I uploaded some recordings, but each caller's name is inaccurate.

Hi @Ayumi Masubuchi!

I’ve asked around internally and as far as I know, this is unfortunately not possible. I would recommend reaching out to our Support team or your CSM for further assistance! 

Hey there @Molly Kipnis , I came across the same issue recently.
For one of my clients, his name is coming up as someone completely different. The job title is correct, weirdly, but i’d love to be able to amend this in Gong to reflect the actual client’s name. Has this been reported by anyone else at all, or is this something that can now be amended and I just haven’t figured out how? :)

Hi @Adelina Manea! I’m checking with the team to make sure nothing has changed since my last reply to this thread. Stay tuned! 

+1 - I would love this feature.

@Jarrod Job Please feel free to submit this as a product feature request on the righthand side of this page

 

Your requests are funneled directly to our Product team for prioritization. 🙂 

+1 I’d love this feature too, for me it’s when I manually import a recording.

@Molly Kipnis has this feature been updated (the ability to change the name of participants)? This is especially needed when you upload a call. The participants appear as anonymous participants in the Conversation Highlights (Next Steps) and Outline. For example: Phone Caller #1, Phone Caller #2 etc..

Just checking if there is a release date on this yet. 

 

Thanks

+1 commenting to keep track of when this goes live! Was kind of shocked / surprised Gong didn’t have this capability yet given just about all of the other smaller competitors allow you to adjust caller names for uploaded recordings.

Hi everyone, exciting news! 🥳📰

This feature is now in GA, which means you all have access! Here’s the skinny:

What’s New?
Customers can now change the name of speakers in their calls directly from the call page.

Why?
Improve search, analysis, tracking, and CRM capture, and make it easier for our customers to gather insights.

How?
Below the call video, hover the speaker’s name to show the edit symbol. Click to open an edit window where you can search for and choose the correct speaker name. After editing, the new name will be reflected throughout Gong: in stats, call spotlight, transcripts, and more.

Only admins, tech admins, and call participants can change a speaker’s name in a specific call.
The feature is available for all types of calls except for stereo calls.
