Working with Gong Engage requires an Engage seat.

Who's this for? Reps

Gong Engage is designed to help you drive high quality engagement with the right prospects and customers. Get all the context you to easily create personalized messaging, prioritize your tasks, and utilize AI-based recommendations, all in one place. You can use Engage with either Salesforce or HubSpot.

If you're new to Engage, this article will help you get started.

1. Check that your calendar and email are connected

Click on your username and go to My Settings. Check that Calendar meetings are being imported. If they're not, talk to your admin.

Next, check that Emails are being imported. Check that Email write-permission is turned on for composing emails in Gong is connected to your email provider. If not, click Connect and follow the prompts to approve the connection.

By giving Gong permission to write emails, the emails you compose in Gong are integrated with your email client (Gmail or Office365) and sent directly from them. This means sent emails and draft emails that you work on in Gong appear in your email client.
