"We didn't have a single source of truth," said Addy Thomas, Director of Field Programs at Elastic. "Our sellers were lost in a sea of disconnected content and training. And we couldn't measure any of it."

Misalignment is both costly and challenging to spot — but RevOps leaders feel its impact every day:
Instead of driving growth, teams are forced to reconcile data and chase answers across siloed systems. And when sellers spend less time with buyers, their deals either stall or disappear altogether.
GTM alignment is all about shared data, shared metrics, and shared execution across revenue teams without adding complexity to the tech stack.
In practice, alignment enables:
When teams operate from the same unified hub, forecasting becomes more reliable and execution becomes more coordinated. RevOps gains confidence in the numbers — and leaders gain clarity on what's driving performance.
Aligned teams work from a connected foundation where content, learning, and engagement insights live together. This gives RevOps real operational control and reduces redundant tools.
Standardized processes reduce friction across content delivery, onboarding, and engagement tracking. Sellers get what they need, when they need it, without any manual intervention or tool switching.
Revenue leaders can see performance as it happens, not weeks later. They have visibility into engagement, readiness, and program impact, so they can make better decisions that keep deals moving forward.
Elastic offers a perfect example of what happens when GTM alignment becomes a strategic priority. Elastic's revenue team recognized that a disconnected GTM stack could no longer support their scale ambitions.
By consolidating onboarding, training, and content with Seismic's AI-powered enablement platform, Elastic eliminated siloed tools and manual workflows.
"Enablement had to become a driver of transformation," said Mark Dodds, CRO at Elastic. "We're betting on Seismic. It's helping us scale efficiently, align globally, and win faster. It's not just supporting the strategy — it's part of it."
