What do you like best about Accord?

It's extremely easy to use. Takes the annoying burden out of my hands to follow up with buyers to take action on items they said they would own by a specific date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Accord?

everything that I asked for from the team was quickly put into production, so nothing to dislike! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Accord:

All sellers should be using a mutual action plan to help keep their deals organized. Don't waste your time updating an Excel sheet and sending it back and forth. Make it easy on yourself and let Accord do the tedious parts of keeping your buyers engaged and accountable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Being in enterprise software sales, deals can be very long with multiple people involved in the procurement process. If someone comes in late to the party, rather than having to bring them up to speed, I can just add them to the Accord and they can see everything their team has done over the last few months.

What do you like best about Accord?

I've worked with the team at Accord for close to two years at multiple companies. Not only does the platform solve a critical problem in the sales and onboarding process, it also strikes that perfect balance between simplicity and functionality.

Accord is an easy-to-use platform for buyer collaboration. It was simple to set up using their growing library of templates. The systems makes certain our sales reps and onboarding specialists follow a consistent and efficient process. Accord ensures that expectations are aligned, both internally and externally - resulting in superior accountability and hard-to-achieve visibility into the end-to-end process. Accord also helps prospective customers to navigate the buying process with us, keeps them vested to the process. It also houses all information relevant to the deal in one place, making it available to the company via integrations such as SFDC and Slack..

Above all, their team, from top to bottom, has been an absolute joy to work with. Ross, Ryan, Dani, and their entire team of Accordians are beyond committed to the success of our business and the satisfaction of our customers. They also pump out amazing content regarding modern B2B sales best practices, and I appreciate their positive engagement with the community. Kudos! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Accord?

Given that Accord plays in a relatively new category, there is sometimes curiosity from our buyers and slight hesitation to adopt another platform. That said, once they start using Accord that doubt turns to delight. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

- Buyer/seller alignment

- Expectations and accountability

- Shorter sales cycles

- Greater visibility into the buyer's journey

- More reliable forecasting

- Documentation of a repeatable process

- Foundation for process optimizations Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Accord?

Accord gives me the ability to lay down a clear and successful pathway for both parties. Not only does it give my prospects visibility into how to purchase, but also, it allows them to share their input. In my experience, prospects love to correct you when you assume incorrectly, and Accord gives them a chance to do so :) This leads to a more collaborative process. Accord also makes me look great in my pipeline reviews! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Accord?

No other company is building a collaborative customer journey, and it's so important. I feel like Accord has a great understanding of sales, so they iterate very quickly. Nothing to report right now, but I will update this section as things come up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It helps me in two areas -

1) What journey do I want to take my client on after the first call? Accord made me think more about the different customer journey frameworks. It's critical for me as an AE to understand this than just product marketing.

2) Many times, prospects don't understand how to buy solutions either, which is more problematic. Accord helps them think about how to buy more easily, and it helps speed up the sales process because they have an idea of what actually to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Accord?

Our team was struggling to find a tech stack that encapsulated our mission for partnership over a transactional sale. When I found Accord, it was literally in their tag line. We are fully implementing Accord into our university partnership strategy because it keeps both organizations apprised of timelines, to-do items, decision makers and general progress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Accord?

At this point nothing. The team has delivered an amazing product and is very responsive to feedback and new feature requests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Accord:

If you are interested in giving your sales team tech to put them on the cutting edge of the sales industry, get Accord. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Prospects dropping out mid sale. Organizing a long sales cycle with numerous documents and 5+ decision makers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Accord?

I really love the design and UX of Accord -- it's super easy to set up and our customers love using it with us. It allows for us to easily collaborate and measure goals / OKRs with our customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Accord?

Not much that I don't like. I think there's a couple of small features that I wish were offered like the ability to email clients directly from the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We are solving the customer success problem. We often need to gain alignment with our customers in a way that is simple and clear, and CoSell allows for us to accomplish that in a way that wasn't otherwise possible. At the end of the day eliminating churn is the goal -- Accord, without a doubt, helps us accomplish that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Accord?

Accord is an incredibly powerful way to organize next steps and foster buy-in from a prospect at the same time .

Each time a prospect goes in and marks a task complete or responds to a comment, it builds rapport and moves the needle on a deal. If you can get a prospect bought into engaging with Accord, it is huge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Accord?

Some challenges:

- you need to introduce Accord while on the call with a customer so they can familiarize with it. Otherwise, it can feel a little overwhelming to the prospect.

- Introducing Accord too early, even when on the phone, can feel presumptuous to a prospect if not done gracefully.

What I'd do is put lots of collateral and less steps in Accord during the early phases of the sales cycle so prospects feel that the Accord is for them. If it just seems like a list of steps to get to a close, the prospect might feel like the Accord is there to make the salesperson's life easier, not theirs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
