Our reseller partners may use this central hub to register new deals, stay up to speed on product changes, and have access to all relevant product information.

    • It can merge data and videos to deliver an exceptionally engaging experience to the receiver.
    • It is also useful in addressing the customer by the first name at the outset, delivering a relevant message to him and if need be, engaging him with a unique story
    • There is a feature that conducts surveys, customer profiling or includes a call to action buttons in HTML5 videos to increase and optimize interaction with the consumer.

    Cons
    Channelscaler
    • The fact that you can't make payouts to partners within the platform itself is super frustrating and that would be a huge improvement.
    • The ability to track clicks, page views, etc is not available like on other partner platforms like Tune, Impact, and Cake. It would be awesome to see that tracking data for the content being shared.
    • Having more integrations with platforms like Zuora which we use for payments would be great.

    • I still feel that they can do more in the Business Card design part.
    • They can also put more work in printing stationary.
    • Everything else is good and I love the product.

    Usability

    It is by far the easiest system to administrator that I have either had experience doing or demoed from other vendors. No coding skills needed. Simple interfaces for everything. And the Allbound University and live support are great!

    Regular meetings, lots of UAT, quick responses, and adherence to our timeline made implementation a breeze -- even though we had some really complex processes we needed to support.

    They are different in the sense that Allbound allows you to loop in different parners to a degree that HubSpot doesn't outside smaller extensions and portals. More visbility into interactions with HubSpot, but it's truly built for marketing vs a sales forward/partnership management tool.Extensions from Allbound into Google could be helpful

    Return on Investment
    Channelscaler
    • The sharing of knowledge has a positive effect on the partners who benefit from it.
    • Our smaller partners are now able to conduct their own campaigns with the help of our Campaigns in a Box, freeing us to concentrate on our larger clients.
    • Our latest products can all be better explained with the aid of our learning tracks.

    • Very good ROI, I would say personally, as when I went to local vendors, they were charging a lot, and Mediawide is a cost-effective option.
