Built for the 3 to 5 person sales team that doesn't want to commit $10,800 upfront and wait three months to start coaching.
Gong now sells to teams as small as 3 seats - but the experience is still built for enterprise. You'll talk to a sales rep, sign an annual contract, commit to a 3 seat minimum at $10,800 upfront, and spend 6 to 12 weeks getting it configured before your first coached call.
Deal Insights gives you live coaching cues on your very next call. Self-serve, monthly billing, no minimum, no sales call.
Deal Insights: sign up, install, start coaching on your next call. Gong: typical real-world rollout is 6 to 12 weeks.
Deal Insights shows glanceable cues during the live call. Gong analyzes recordings after the fact.
Start at $129 per user per month with no minimum and no contract. Gong's entry point is a 3 seat minimum at $10,800 for the first year, paid upfront.
Gong does not publish pricing. The figure below is from a direct quote by a Gong sales rep in May 2026: a 3 seat minimum totaling $10,800 all-in for the first year.
What Gong markets versus what real customers report. Implementation is where small teams lose the most.
The hidden cost of slow implementation: a 5 person team running 15 calls per week loses about 600 calls of coaching during a 12 week Gong rollout. At an average deal size of $25K with a 20 percent close rate lift from coaching, that's roughly $300K in deferred pipeline impact.
Capabilities both products offer in some form, weighted by what actually moves the needle for a small team.

Your quote may vary by geography, contract length, and which integrations you need; the structural points (3 seat minimum, annual contract, mandatory sales call) are consistent.
