"I love Drift"
What do you like best about Drift?

It is so easy to communicate with both current and prospective clients.

What do you dislike about Drift?

I do not like how sometimes the client leaves our webpage or goes offline and it takes a second for the app to catch up and realize it. It will tell me client is typing for like 4 minutes.

What problems is Drift solving and how is that benefiting you?

Based on the qualifying questions, a client is connected to the right sales rep/person to speak with. From there, I am able to see information that is required to either locate account or help me sell the client.

"The Best Way to Engage Right Now"
What do you like best about Drift?

For our team, Drift allows a seamless communication method for direct engagement with site users. Since moving to Drift our prospect engagement has improved. The ability to connect with specific people or book meetings in chat is huge. The team uses it daily. Implementation was easy and straightforward. Our Customer Support team does a great job with regular updates and best practices. Lastly, combining Drift with 6Sense and other tools like MutinyHQ, we can effectively target segments with a truly unique experience.

To be transparent, we don't have any Drift dislikes. It's a substantial tool that offers great features that we didn't previously have.

"More visibility into hot leads than I would have ever imagined!"
What do you like best about Drift?

I thought it was simply a chat box where I could interact with prospects who visit our website. However, it is much more than that! Drift syncs with your account book so that when leads specifically in your territory engage with anything on your website, you are notified in real-time! Not only are you notified, but you can also tell what material they engaged with and where they are located worldwide. From a rep who is 100% outbound, this tool provides insight into warm leads, making my job easier. It is also helpful to get the email digests every week, showing the engagement score on my accounts over the past week.

What do you dislike about Drift?

I do not dislike much about Drift, but I would prefer if it could tell me when someone from one of my accounts submits a demo request, rather than just engages.

What problems is Drift solving and how is that benefiting you?

Solves the issue of having a human on the other end to contact prospects or customers who visit the website. Also solves the problem of weak visibility into warm leads at each of my accounts.
