ARchitect
If you have an AR program across the globe and want to track all interactions you have with them, this tool is right for you. As you can imagine the tool is only as good as the data you put in, so you do have to make it part of your work day to input the data. Say a team member leaves and you have to jump in to cover for them, you are able to see all the interactions they have had with analysts

If your brand has a good amount of steady social content, and you like to show it on your site along with shoppable links at the catalog and also at the product level, Olapic is an easy to use utiilty and also allows you to render your Instagram feed shoppable. In our case, we had a very active social presence but did not leverage it directly for the customers to shop from it, so Olapic filled that need.

- It would be great if ARcitect was able to add a field for staffers for event 1:1s, having this as a separate field would be helpful.

Information Technology and Services Company, 10,001+ employees- It's a niche solution. If you're looking for niche, it's great. But if you're looking for an enterprise tool connected to many different systems and data solutions, it might not be for you.
- The revenue analytics are not very reliable.
- Price. This seems like it would be a great solution for medium size businesses, but the price is not feasible for the product.

Prior to using ARchitect, we were using Salesforce. While we did have some customization added, it did not nearly have the robustness that ARchitect provides -- especially since it is designed for AR professionals. We've been using ARchitect for about 8 years and have never looked back. Some examples of vast improvements: 1. Analyst firms/bios. With Salesforce, we needed to maintain all analyst bios -- something that ARchitect does.2. Analyst coverage. We used to track all analyst coverage by visiting multiple analyst websites and manually pasting into spreadsheets. We now not only get a feed of coverage that can be exported into Excel, but we can also customize reports by topic.3. Reporting. Salesforce did not provide the same reporting capabilities that ARchitect provides.

We had not implemented Salesforce previously, so we went with Olapic due to cost and ease of use. We are implementing Salesforce shortly, though, so we may need to reassess Olapic if they have conflicts or do not work optimally with Salesforce. We would like easier cooperation with Instagram since TapShop implementation can be rough in EU markets.

Return on Investment
- ARchitect has enabled us to track and report back (with minimum effort) client references from the market analysts. Our ability to demonstrate direct sales support provides validation for the analyst relations program -- especially for those who have a hard time understanding the value of the program.
- ARchitect has enabled us to provide real-time, customized reporting back to the business - demonstrating the efficacy of our program management.
- At the most basic level, the ARchitect contract has paid for itself many times in person-hours. Having a centralized system means team members do not need to manually track their own activities in a spreadsheet. In addition, the time it would take to consolidate reports, or customize reports by topic, analyst, etc.

- In general, we are seeing customers react to the content and use the links for shopping on our site. Their analytics is perhaps more optimistic than I believe, but content is king, and customers like to see more images of the product in more sizes and situations
- We are starting to make custom brand pages and landing pages for advertising campaigns, and it's always great to add believable UGC to those pages to showcase a brand's style and general feel.
- Tracking our social content is a good way to get a more generalized feel of how the brand is tracking, and who is creating content regarding our brand, so that is a beneficial side effect of constantly monitoring our tags.
