CJ Affiliate vs. Impartner PRM vs. Partnerize

CJ would be a great place for any publisher looking to monetize their blog or social media accounts. Products that have broad targeting or rely on bargain hunters would perform really well as there are tons of coupon sites and fashion blogs. Niche products would have a harder time growing as they would probably still need to do a lot of outreach.

I have worked with many other PRM platforms. ImpartnerPRM is in the middle of the pack. There is still a lot of opportunity for making the platform more intuitive and automating some of the processes. However, it is better than some of the others that I have used in terms of there being better continuity between the PRM and marketing functions.

Since Parterize's partnership announcement with Konnecto I'm looking forwars to some exciting improvements to the platform that will embrace AI tools for reporting and communication with partners

• their portal is easily usable
• communication within the system is supper easy
• searching for new affiliates is really great

• Providing data in an easily digestible format.
• Intuitive workflow, really easy to learn in an afternoon.
• Cloud access feature allows for easy access on any device.

Incentivized

• Selection of merchants
• Create data reports
• Striking inferface

• It's a great platform but have selected countries.
• Sometimes loading speed is too slow in my experience.
• Customer service needs to be improved in my opinion.

Incentivized

• Training was very difficult to set up and maintain
• They show you this awesome demo environment and then you realize once you purchase the tool how much it takes to get that. At least one web designer, help from marketing, and at least a few months of dedicated work
• The most expensive tool we looked at

Incentivized

• The reporting interface for publishers could be improved to be more user friendly.
• Contract term special conditions are difficult to find and sometimes not available so this area could be improved.

My business is able to extract what we need from Partnerize to access and analyse performance data. Once you know what you're doing and where everything is, it's great. There is always room for improvement as the industry evolves and more metrics become available though

CJ definitely has the largest pool of publishers and is well built out in terms of features. However, it does appear that they have a lot of dead weight in their pool which is something that their competitors claim they have solved. We ultimately selected CJ because we had previous experience with the platform and wanted to tap into their affiliate pool.

Salesforce was too expensive for us at the time and required too much customization and internal strain at the time. We ended up choosing Salesforce over Impartner later on once our channel business was more established and we had more resources internally. Impartner was more simple and easy to deploy than Salesforce, which is why we chose it when we had fewer resources

Awin is a far friendlier and easier to use interface, though Partnerize offers a different variety of merchants

Incentivized

• we have been able to make a good amount of money
• we just share the link and then the companies do the rest

Incentivized

• I do think our lead to demo rate increased a significant percent
• We were able to communicate easily with over 1k partners that were hard to reach before

Incentivized

• Analysing revenue streams
• Maintaining affiliate relationships
