Cirrus Insight is the #1 Alternative to Gong and Chorus

The Power of AI Coaching + Meeting Insights + Salesforce Automation

Cirrus Insight does what Gong and Chorus can’t, it connects conversation intelligence directly to your workflow, giving reps real-time insights, next-step recommendations, and CRM sync without ever leaving their inbox.

AI Meeting Intelligence That Goes Beyond Call Recording

Cirrus Insight automatically preps your reps before calls, provides live coaching during meetings, and transcribes and syncs insights back to Salesforce afterward.

While Gong and Chorus focus on analyzing conversations post-call, Cirrus Insight delivers actionable intelligence before, during, and after every meeting. That means reps spend less time reviewing dashboards and more time selling.

Deeper Salesforce Integration That Drives Action

Cirrus Insight supports custom objects, real-time activity sync, and automatic logging of every meeting, email, and task. It’s more than analytics, it’s full sales enablement built inside Salesforce.

Gong and Chorus surface insights, but they don’t automate follow-up or CRM updates. Cirrus Insight ensures every touchpoint becomes an action, instantly captured and reportable.

Smarter AI for Coaching and Deal Momentum

Cirrus Insight uses Live Meeting Coach and Next Steps AI to help reps ask better questions, identify buying signals, and prioritize next actions automatically.

With Gong or Chorus, insights stop at analysis. With Cirrus Insight, they translate into measurable deal progress.

"What I like best about Cirrus Insight is how seamlessly it brings Salesforce into the tools people are already using, like Gmail and Outlook. Instead of switching back and forth between applications, you can manage leads, track emails, schedule meetings, and update records right from your inbox. That not only saves time but also helps sales teams focus on relationships instead of admin work. I also appreciate the visibility it gives managers through tracking and analytics — it bridges the gap between sales activity and CRM data in a really intuitive way."
