New Study Reveals 481% ROI in Gong's Revenue Intelligence Platform

June 7, 2021

Palo Alto, CALIFORNIA, June 7, 2021 – The Gong Revenue Intelligence Platform yields a three-year, 481 percent return on investment (ROI), according to a Forrester study released today. The commissioned study, “The Total Economic Impact™ Of Gong Revenue Intelligence Platform” conducted by Forrester Consulting, found that companies benefit from using Gong in four measurable ways, in addition to other qualitative benefits.

According to Forrester, selling has changed: “68% of buyers prefer to gather information on their own, and 60 percent prefer not to interact with a salesperson at all. Because buyers are further along in the buying journey, sales teams need to capitalize on every customer conversation and need to harness accurate, timely, and actionable customer insights to drive revenue.”

The challenge is that, until recently, sales tools haven’t been keeping up.

For this just-released study, Forrester interviewed executives at several companies – and conducted a financial analysis covering what happened before and after using Gong’s platform. Forrester then used the information to create a composite organization to quantify results. The composite organization, based on Forrester’s Total Economic Impact™ framework, is representative of the companies Forrester interviewed and modelled as a U.S.-headquartered B2B software-as-a-service company with annual revenues of $800M, an average deal size of $20,000, and 750 people in the sales organization.

Forrester found that before using Gong, sales representatives at the companies it surveyed, “relied on their email inbox and memory to discuss pipeline and deals with their managers, along with ad hoc stories developed to create supposed insights into buyers’ behaviors.”

After using Gong, Forrester found positive quantifiable differences: “The customer interviews and financial analysis found that a composite organization experiences benefits of $12.1M over three years versus costs of $2M, resulting in a net present value (NPV) of $10M and an ROI of 481%.”

The $12.1M in benefits derived from using the Gong platform were attributed to:

Increase in incremental profit driven by Gong
Reduced time sales representatives spent on administrative or low-value tasks
Reduced time for onboarding and ramp-up of new sales representatives
Increased sales manager productivity through Gong-enabled coaching improvements

Additional benefits of using Gong reported by companies in the study but not quantified, included: reduced talent attrition, improved alignment between sales and marketing teams, and increased transparency around performance goals.

“(Gong) brings precision, visibility, and actionable next steps into the deal process, enabling organizations to increase win rates and work more efficiently,” according to the study. Customers recognized “the anatomy of a good deal for their organization. Gong’s proprietary artificial intelligence (AI) warned when something unhealthy showed up so the customers’ sales representatives could intervene.”

This latest study builds on a 2020 Gong-commissioned Forrester Consulting study, “Navigate the Future of Selling with Revenue Intelligence,” that found companies using revenue intelligence tools to supplement traditional CRM software were more than twice as likely to significantly over-perform their sales goals compared to companies that didn’t.

“With this latest study, evidence of Gong’s ability to help improve win rates and increase deal sizes continues to build,” said Amit Bendov, CEO of Gong. “Third-party studies and personal experience worldwide demonstrate that Gong helps revenue teams make decisions with data instead of opinions. These data-driven decisions lead to powerful, demonstrable and positive results.”

We’re continuing to see a meaningful impact and look forward to continuing the partnership as Gong expands its support for customer success through the new Customer Office.” As part of this leadership expansion, Gong is launching a unified Customer Office – a strategic integration of its pre-sales and post-sales motions to ensure total alignment between the vision sold, and the value realized throughout the customer journey.

Gong Launches Mission Andromeda, Expanding Its Revenue AI OS to Enablement and Account Management

Introducing Gong Enable: Native AI capabilities designed to unify coaching and training across the entire revenue stack SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. — February 25, 2026 — Gong, the leading revenue AI company, today announced Mission Andromeda, a product launch that delivers greater guidance and efficiency around how revenue teams turn customer conversations into repeatable actions across teams. The launch introduces Gong Enable, an AI-powered revenue enablement solution, along with new capabilities for conversational guidance, unified account management, and secure AI interoperability. Mission Andromeda marks the first launch in Gong’s new, more structured product launch cadence. Since its founding, Gong has evolved its platform with new capabilities, with recent updates extending across more areas of the revenue workflow. Under this new approach, Gong is introducing named, galactic-inspired launches that bring multiple capabilities together across the revenue AI OS, helping customers see how innovations fit together and how to implement them across their organizations for revenue success. “Revenue teams have more insights than ever before, but applying those to drive outcomes remains a challenge,” said Eilon Reshef, Chief Product Officer and Co-Founder, Gong. “With Mission Andromeda, we’re extending revenue AI into more of the daily decisions teams make, from in-the-moment guidance to account management and coaching, so they can apply what works more broadly and at scale.” Gong Enable: Scale Winning Revenue Behaviors Enablement teams face growing demands with limited capacity. According to Gartner Inc., 65% of CSOs and senior sales leaders say their enablement function is stretched thin, while frontline managers spend just 9% of their time coaching. As a result, organizations often rely on intuition to identify skill gaps and measure success through course completion rates rather than true performance improvement. Gong Enable is designed to close this proficiency gap by integrating enablement into everyday revenue workflows and using real customer conversations to drive measurable performance improvement without adding manager overhead. “Morningstar operates revenue teams across products and global markets, so consistency matters,” said Rae Cheney, Director of Sales Enablement Technology at Morningstar. “Gong Enable lets us turn real customer conversations into practical coaching and tighter deal execution. It’s helped us spend less time on status updates and more time on the work that actually moves deals, making it easier to scale what ‘good’ looks like across teams.” With Gong Enable, revenue teams can now: Identify skill gaps dynamically with AI Call Reviewer, which analyzes live customer interactions to surface individual and team-level coaching opportunities based on real behavior, enabling earlier and more targeted intervention through structured, role-specific learning programs called Lessons. Practice high-stakes conversations at scale with AI Trainer, which allows reps to rehearse scenarios such as pricing objections or renewal risk using AI-generated simulations informed by successful conversations across the organization, delivering instant feedback without additional manager overhead. Connect training to business outcomes with Initiative Tracking, which links enablement programs directly to revenue metrics, allowing leaders to see whether new behaviors are showing up in live deals and impacting outcomes like win rates, deal size, and ramp time. Extending AI Across Revenue Workflows Since its founding, Gong has applied AI to help revenue teams understand customer conversations. Mission Andromeda extends that intelligence into more day-to-day revenue work, including how teams ask questions, manage accounts, and act on insights across systems. In addition to Gong Enable, Mission Andromeda includes: Gong Assistant: A conversational AI experience that allows revenue teams to ask questions about customer calls directly within Gong and receive trusted, context-aware answers grounded in real conversations. Future updates will expand support across deals, accounts, and execution workflows. Account Console and Account Boards: Unified views that bring AI insights - such as customer activity, risk signals, and recommended next steps - into one place, helping sales and post-sales teams identify renewal risk and expansion opportunities earlier and work together more effectively. Gong support for Model Context Protocol (MCP): Built-in client and server support for MCP, enabling organizations to connect Gong with other AI systems while maintaining clear controls over data access, usage, and provenance.
