Weflow vs Nektar vs Einstein Activity Capture

By Weflow · Updated October 9, 2026

Weflow is the Revenue AI Orchestration platform for sales, customer success, and RevOps teams. It captures every email, meeting and call into CRM data you own, with mapping your team can see and steer, then runs conversation intelligence and forecasting on it. Nektar is a background capture service that feeds Salesforce and Snowflake. EAC is Salesforce's own email and calendar sync.

Einstein frequently missed activities. Now, we trust the data. It's been a big mental lift for the team.

Feature comparison

If your goal is basic email and calendar sync included with Sales Cloud, EAC is a good choice. If it is activity data for a data team, delivered to Salesforce and Snowflake with no rep-facing tool, Nektar is. When you want complete activity data you can steer, with calls and forecasting on top, choose Weflow.

What users of each tool say

Weflow

What they like

“The absolute best part about Weflow is that it automatically summarises every single client call and drops the notes straight into Salesforce. I stopped writing up notes manually for the most time.”

LPLaszlo P.Enterprise, 5/5 · G2 review

Where it falls short

“There is a small lag when a new field is created on Salesforce, it doesn't instantly sync with WeFlow.”

ACAlisson C.Senior Account Executive (Mid-Market), 5/5 · G2 review

NektarNektar

What they like

“Our buying groups went from 2-3 contacts to 8-15 stakeholders. RevOps freed up 35+ hours/week from data consolidation.”

MVMaria Virginia M.Mid-Market, 5/5 · G2 review

Where it falls short

“Sync timing is slow. On average, there’s a ~75-minute delay between when an activity occurs and when it's created in our CRM. This lag makes it difficult for us to enforce SLAs in real time, especially when responding to inbound intent signals.”

VUVerified User in Computer SoftwareMid-Market, 4.5/5 · G2 review

Einstein Activity CaptureEinstein Activity Capture

What they like

“Email syncing to leads, contacts, accounts and opportunities does work well with zero user effort and you can see threaded conversations.”

RUReddit userr/salesforce · Reddit

Where it falls short

“We looked into Einstein for a really long time. It was impossible to properly use it, and there were small things that continuously broke our setup or were unreliable.”

Frequently asked questions

We tried EAC and it falls short. Is Nektar or Weflow the better next step?

Both fix what EAC leaves out: contact creation, contact roles and longer backfill. The difference is control and reach. Nektar runs as a background service with machine-learning matching you cannot see, and stops at capture. Weflow lets admins set the matching rules and reps fix records in Gmail or Outlook, then adds Conversation Intelligence and forecasting on the same captured data.

How does each one match activity to the right opportunity?

EAC uses the contact's existing contact role, then tiebreakers such as close date and owner, so a contact on several deals sees the email on all of them. Nektar scores candidates with machine-learning models and logs to the account when unsure. Weflow weighs contact role, owner, mailbox owner and stage under rules admins set per team, and reps re-map once for the whole thread.

Which ones create contacts and Opportunity Contact Roles?

Weflow creates missing contacts from email recipients and adds an Opportunity Contact Role when it logs an email to a deal, on every plan. Nektar creates contacts with details from signatures and assigns buyer roles such as decision maker in its higher Harvest package. EAC's Contact Auto-Creation is off on setups since Summer '25, and it never creates contact roles.

How far back does each one go, and how long is activity kept?

Weflow backfills up to 24 months of email and meetings, and its records stay in your Salesforce permanently. Nektar backfills up to 18 months at $8 per user for each month of history. EAC pulls up to 50,000 emails from the past 180 days, and keeps captured activity 6 months on Standard and 24 months on paid licences.

Do Nektar or EAC record calls?

No. Nektar reads attendance and the transcripts Zoom, Teams or Google Meet already hold, and positions itself beside Gong for calls. EAC syncs email, calendar and contacts only; Salesforce sells call recording separately as Einstein Conversation Insights. Weflow records calls with a notetaker, a botless desktop app and mobile apps, and writes summaries and field values into Salesforce.

What happens to activity already captured when we switch?

Everything Nektar wrote and everything EAC stored as Task, Event and EmailMessage records stays in your Salesforce. Activity older EAC setups held in Salesforce's own store cannot be exported and ages out. Weflow captures from activation and backfills up to 24 months, and you can run EAC beside it while you switch, with EAC's event sync set to one direction.

How do the three compare on price?

EAC Standard is free with Sales Cloud for up to 100 users, and the full version is about $50 per user per month. Nektar quotes its Bloom and Harvest packages per user and charges $8 per user for each month of backfill. Activity & Contact Capture is $19/user/month, $11,400 a year for 50 users, with no platform fee and Conversation Intelligence available in the $49 bundle.

How is our activity data used for AI?

Weflow keeps zero AI data retention and never uses customer data to train models. Nektar runs its AI under agreements that prohibit storage or training, and does not train on customer data without a separate written agreement. Salesforce keeps de-identified data derived from EAC activity for up to 2 years and uses it with machine-learning models unless an admin opts out.

Where is our data hosted?

Weflow hosts in Frankfurt, New York or Sydney, matching your Salesforce region by default, with an override to keep data in the EU or UK. Nektar hosts on AWS in the United States and moves EU and UK data there under Standard Contractual Clauses. EAC runs on Hyperforce in the United States or Germany, following where your Salesforce org lives.
