Best Gong Alternatives in 2026

Why teams look for alternatives

Teams look for Gong alternatives when they cannot see a price before a sales conversation, when they want conversation intelligence bundled into a platform they already pay for rather than bought separately, when the real need is meeting notes and CRM updates rather than pipeline forecasting, or when they work across languages or in the EU and want that handled explicitly.

Gong captures customer interactions across calls, emails and web conferences and turns them into deal risk signals, forecasts and coaching. The depth is real, and so is the shape of the purchase: quote-only, annual, and scoped to a revenue organization rather than a team that wants its calls written up. The alternatives below split cleanly along that line.

Choose Salesloft Conversation Intelligence when you want conversation intelligence inside a revenue platform instead of as a separate contract. Battlecards surface in real time during calls, coachable moments become tasks in rep workflows, and call outcomes write back to the CRM, alongside Salesloft engagement and forecasting on one agreement. Quote-only.

Choose Outreach when sequencing and deal management matter as much as call analysis. Conversation intelligence sits in the same platform as prospecting cadences and pipeline management, so a call feeds the workflow that produced it. Quote-only.

Choose Backstory when the question is what is happening in an account rather than what was said on one call. Formerly People.ai, it connects email, meetings, calls and CRM into direct answers for revenue leaders. Quote-only.

Choose Attention when you want the follow-through automated rather than the analysis deepened. Its agents learn from sales conversations to draft follow-ups, set next steps, update CRM fields and coach reps. Quote-only.

Choose Avoma when you want coaching scorecards and revenue forecasting attached to meeting notes, at a price you can read before talking to anyone. Plans start from $19/mo billed annually.

Choose Fathom when a free or low-cost notetaker covers the need. It records, transcribes and summarizes calls with action items and CRM sync, bot-free capture is available, and it carries the largest review corpus of anything on this page. Plans start from $15/mo billed annually.

Choose Fireflies.ai when the team works across languages or a long tail of tools. It transcribes in over 100 languages and syncs with more than 60 CRMs and adjacent systems. Plans start from $10/mo billed annually.

Choose tl;dv when the team is EU-based and GDPR handling belongs in the decision. It adds coaching playbooks and CRM sync across Zoom, Meet and Teams. Plans start from $18/mo billed annually.

The dividing line is whether you are buying revenue analysis or meeting capture. Salesloft Conversation Intelligence, Outreach, Backstory and Attention sit on the revenue side and are quote-only, like Gong itself, so expect a sales conversation and an annual contract. Avoma, Fathom, Fireflies.ai and tl;dv publish their prices and start far lower, and none of them forecasts a pipeline. Teams that need deal risk scoring and forecast accuracy belong on the first list. Teams that mainly need calls recorded, summarized and pushed into a CRM will find the second list covers it.
