Sales training software that turns every rep into a top performer

What is sales training software? An essential guide for revenue teams

Sales training software is a digital platform designed to help sales organizations onboard, coach, and continuously develop their teams. It brings together learning modules, real sales call analysis, and performance tracking—all in one place. Why does this matter? Because in today’s competitive B2B landscape, the difference between hitting quota and missing it often comes down to how quickly and effectively your reps learn, adapt, and execute.

Sales training software isn’t just about delivering courses. It’s about embedding learning into daily workflows, connecting training to real customer conversations, and making coaching actionable. The right solution can transform how you ramp new hires, reinforce best practices, and drive measurable improvements in pipeline and revenue.

Sales training software

Why do businesses use sales training software? Three reasons stand out:

  • Accelerate ramp time: New hires get up to speed faster by accessing curated call libraries, on-demand lessons, and real-world examples—so they can start contributing to pipeline sooner.
  • Drive consistent coaching: Managers can deliver targeted feedback based on actual sales interactions, not just role-play or theory. This consistency lifts the whole team.
  • Measure and improve performance: With built-in analytics, leaders can track progress, identify skill gaps, and tie training directly to business outcomes like win rates and quota attainment.
Common features/components of sales training software include:
  • Call recording and analysis
  • Coaching playlists and scorecards
  • On-demand training libraries
  • Performance dashboards and analytics
  • Integration with CRM and communication tools
Typical use cases span:
  • Onboarding new reps: Streamline ramp with structured playbooks and real call examples.
  • Ongoing coaching: Deliver feedback at scale, using real customer conversations as the foundation.
  • Skill certification: Track completion of training modules and validate learning with scorecards.
  • Peer learning: Enable reps to learn from top performers by sharing best-in-class calls and talk tracks.

Why Gong takes a fundamentally different approach

Most sales training software stops at content delivery or basic call review. Gong goes further. We believe your best training asset isn’t a static course—it’s the voice of your customer. Our platform captures every interaction, analyzes what actually drives deals, and turns that insight into personalized coaching and actionable next steps. It’s not just about learning—it’s about winning, every day.

Why use Gong

Why use Gong for sales training software?

Traditional training solutions often leave you guessing: Are reps really absorbing what matters? Are managers coaching on the right calls? With Gong, you get a system built for revenue teams that want clarity, speed, and impact.

With Gong, you can:

  • Ramp new hires up to quota 30 percent faster by giving them instant access to real sales conversations and proven talk tracks.
  • Deliver targeted coaching at scale—managers can pinpoint exactly where reps need support, using AI-powered call analysis and scorecards.
  • Standardize best practices across teams, so every rep learns from your top performers (not just the lucky few who sit next to them).
  • Tie training directly to revenue outcomes, tracking improvements in win rates, deal size, and pipeline health.

The experience is seamless. Gong’s AI surfaces coaching moments automatically, integrates with your CRM and communication stack, and makes it easy for managers and reps to collaborate on growth. No more chasing down recordings or wondering if training is working—just actionable insight, every day.

What does this look like in practice? Here’s how revenue teams use Gong every day:

Onboard new hires with confidence

New reps binge-watch curated playlists of winning calls, so they sound like pros from day one.

Coach at scale, not just one-on-one

Spot skill gaps before they hurt pipeline

Build a culture of continuous learning

Top performers share their best moments, and everyone learns from real customer interactions, not just theory.

How does Gong’s sales training system work?

Here’s what happens behind the scenes:

Step 1

Gong automatically joins scheduled calls or records inbound/outbound phone conversations, with clear consent and privacy controls built in.

Step 2

Every call is securely stored in the cloud, encrypted at rest and in transit, with customizable access permissions for compliance.

Step 3

Gong’s AI transcribes the call in near real time, tagging key topics, action items, and risks.

Step 4

All recordings and transcripts are indexed and made instantly searchable. You can filter by rep, account, deal stage, or keyword—so you always find what you need.

Step 5

Insights from calls feed directly into your coaching, pipeline, and forecasting workflows—so you’re always working with the full truth, not just CRM notes.

Glacier Media: Accelerating new rep success in a virtual world

Challenge: Glacier Media, a leading Canadian media and digital marketing company, faced a major challenge during the shift to remote work: they lost visibility into what their sales reps were doing and struggled to onboard and coach new hires effectively. With over 1,000 employees and a rapidly evolving product suite, traditional in-person training and coaching simply couldn’t keep up.

Solution: Glacier Media implemented Gong to digitize their sales training and coaching process. Gong’s platform enabled them to:

  • Capture and analyze every sales call, providing managers with data-driven insights into rep performance.
  • Build a comprehensive training library of real calls, so new reps could learn from actual customer conversations.
  • Use AI-powered scorecards and feedback tools to deliver consistent, actionable coaching at scale.
  • Track rep engagement with training materials, ensuring everyone was ramping up and improving.

Results:

  • Dramatically reduced new hire ramp time—reps started contributing to pipeline faster than ever before.
  • Managers saved hours each week by leveraging Gong’s training library and automated feedback tools.
  • Coaching consistency improved across teams, with objective scorecards and clear benchmarks for success.
  • Glacier’s top performers are now those who actively use Gong to upskill, coach, and train themselves—driving a culture of continuous improvement.
