FOR GONG CUSTOMERS

If your permission profile in Gong allows you to manually record calls, you can use assistant@gong.io to record one-off calendar events. That could come in handy in several scenarios: Some teams don’t record internal calls, but if you need to, you can add assistant@gong.io to your calendar event before the internal call’s start time, and we’ll record it. If you don’t want all of your calls to record automatically, but want a few calls to record, ask your admin to turn off your data capture settings. Then you can manually add assistant@gong.io to the calendar events you want to record.

I use Zoom through Gong linked to my calendar.If a client joins the meeting before me it says ‘Meeting scheduled for 24th September 2021’.This doesn’t reflect well on me.  It should say something like The Host will let you in shortly.When I schedule meetings direct through Zoom, it doesn’t say Meeting Scheduled for etc.Can anyone else with the Gong-Zoom-Google Calendar integration please?

Users can listen to their recorded Gong calls without leaving Salesforce! To enable this as an admin, follow the steps in this help center article. Getting an XML-related error? Ensure that you copied/pasted the code as-is in Step #3.Still have questions? Reach out to our Customer Support team here!

Our favorite Native Zoom hack to ensure your call is always recorded as expected is this: Check to see if the “Recording” icon is enabled in the top left corner when you join a meeting room.If it isn't, manually enable “Record to Cloud,” and if there's an associated calendar event, we'll import it. If there isn’t an associated calendar event, at least the call will be in your Zoom account in the ‘Recordings’ section. You can then manually upload the call once it’s over!

Do you know why I am seeing GONG ID’s on the contact level, but Gong CALLS on the Opportunity and Account levels?

Coming from GONG to Salesforce, how are conversation owners determined and how are task owners determined as they don’t align and I would like to edit.

How can I make a simple report of GONG CALLS in Salesforce?  Not tied to opps, just calls in general.  I used to be able to do this with my old sales recording tool and i currently do it with Outreach now.  Any insight would help SO much! :)

You might notice that the data on the ‘Stats page > Gong Usage’ tab is a bit different from the data you see on the ‘Coaching Metrics’ page. That’s because the Coaching Metrics page includes data for a manager and their direct team, while the Gong Usage tab includes data across all teams.  So, for example, manager A may see seven “Calls with comments” in Gong Usage, but only five “Calls with comments” in Coaching Metrics. That’s because the manager commented on seven calls, five of which are for calls owned by users on their team, and two of which are owned by users outside their team.

If you’re properly listed as the call owner, but Interaction Stats still don’t appear for the call, double check to see whether the speaker talk track shows your name exactly as it’s listed in Gong.If the speaker track is even slightly different, we won’t be able to associate the Interaction Stats with your account. Correct it by ensuring that your display name within the web conferencing system you use on the call is the same as your Gong name.

If your call shows the incorrect call owner, you can now manually change the owner within the UI. Simply navigate to any Call page and select the edit icon next to the owner’s name. Now enter the new owner’s name. The Interaction Stats for the call will now associate with the new owner.    Learn more about this process here.

I understand I can set up automated alerts to go to slack, but is it possible to pass the commented snippet into Slack? My ideal workflow post call is for the rep to be able to route highlighted sections around the org to different parties who can help answer. Automated alerts won’t allow for the editorialization.  Or is the best way via dummy email address which push via a webhook? 

I am having some trouble with Gong reporting and was hoping somebody in the community could help me out: I am looking for a Gong report showing talk time Week over week by our account executives. I am trying to see if the % is starting to shift downward since we put our new playbooks into practice. Is this possible with Gong?

In Gong, you can share your recorded calls with internal and external users. Here’s how: Share internally: Navigate to any Call page in Gong and select ‘Share > Share internally’. This lets you send an email to an internal user or get a shareable link. The user has to log into Gong to view the link. Share externally: Navigate to any Call page and select ‘Share > Share with customers’. You can send them an email or get a shareable link. You can also set an expiration date so customers can only see the call for a certain length of time.Want to learn more? Check out our help article, here.

Can the Productboard integration with Gong be used to push insights to multiple Productboard instances or only one?

Hi All,I am working with a relatively new product within our stack and we are looking to capture as much feedback on our initial demonstrations as possible to feedback to our Product/Sales/Marketing teams. I am wondering if anyone had experience, or recommendations on the following: Without using trackers (as its too broad right now) have the ability for the Sales Rep to @ a group of users that are cross functional - and thus not a part of the standard user hierarchy Each member of this group would be notified by Gong that they have been tagged at a certain time during the call for them to review (If this can be done by Slack it would be amazing)I have seen the ability to Tag a team in platform, but that tagging seems to be for everyone in the user hierarchy and thus not cross functional.Thank you for any answers!J

If your team uses Outreach and your calls aren’t showing up in Gong’s import, double check two things: Do your email addresses in Gong and Outreach match? They should. It’s how we associate your Outreach calls with your Gong account. Was the call in Outreach recorded? If there’s a blue “play” button next to the call, it was recorded. If it wasn’t recorded, the play button is grey. If your calls weren’t recorded as expected, connect with your Outreach admin to ensure that your Outreach calls get recorded.

 Did you get a “Ghosted” warning on your deal even though you had a call recorded within the specified number of days, and you know it was associated with the account in Gong? If so, verify that the contact on the call is also associated with the right account in your CRM. This allows Gong to consider the contact an active prospect. Want to learn more about deal warnings? Check out the help article here.

Inquiring minds would like to know if any other Gong users are utilizing Gong for non-traditional use cases. I’m working with a research team that is using Gong to transcribe interviews/conversations and then build detailed reports and proposals based on the information from these. Would love to talk shop on best practices with anyone that has even a remotely similar use case!

I just went through this earlier today and thought I’d share with my Community friends. If two Gong customers hop on a call and they both want to record, what is the optimal way to do that?Both customers want that call added to their Gong instance. @Red Reddy  shared that the non-host of the meeting would need to add assistant@gong.io or use the schedule button on the Gong homepage to ensure it gets recorded on their side as well!

If an email isn’t showing up in Gong, double check to see whether the client on the email thread is listed as a contact in your CRM. If they are, ensure that contact is also associated with the right account in your CRM.If we find a contact in your CRM with an email address that matches the one in the email thread, we’ll import the email and link it to the parent account with which the contact is associated.Want to learn more about emails?

As a Product Marketer, I’ve leveraged Gong in all kinds of ways. How Gong Uses Gong: Product Marketer covers many of them. Another way - and one I’ve found extremely impactful - is boosting collaboration with my AE partners on specific deals. Before Gong, if an AE had a question about what positioning to use, what product capabilities to highlight, or something else, I would need to go through my own second hand ‘discovery,’ effectively asking them all of the questions they asked the prospect to get up to speed.Besides slowing collaboration down, the ‘double discovery’ work made it harder to equip my team with exactly what they needed in each scenario. With Gong, I can get up to speed in a snap. I can see the deal situation directly, and get the insight I need to make an impact. The result? Stronger PMM-AE partnership, better sales enablement, shorter deal cycles, and more fun bringing in more awesome customers.

Hey everyone,I’m really loving the new feature of requesting viewer information before they can access a recording, but on that note, do we not get email notifications anymore without toggling that?

Hi all - I’m wondering if anyone has ever used ‘Trackers’ to gain intelligence on the buyer and/or new verticals that you’re trying to move into? If so, what was your strategy, what phrases and key words did you track? 

I have Admin access, however, I do not have access to any of the recordings, I remember doing this on friday and now I have no access, not even logged in as the host. Can anyone help
