Crossbeam vs. TUNE Partner Marketing Platform

I would definitely recommend Crossbeam to others, and frequently bring it up early in conversations with potential partners as a first step in evaluating a partnership opportunity. Crossbeam allows you to easily see overlaps for current customers, prospects/target accounts, and open opportunities. Being able to quickly and easily assess the business opportunity with a partner, and find mutual customers that would benefit from a combined offering is a huge value add. The integration with Salesforce makes the tool easy to use and scalable, without needing to constantly update account lists. Being able to view the overlaps within the Crossbeam UI and easily export the lists makes the tool really easy to work with.

I really like the way they onboard the customer, very easy to navigate and understand the overall software, and one more thing that its features. My only problem with this is that if I delete a partner, it remains in the database.

• Establishing sharing settings for each specific partner could be more intuitive and easy to check.
• Some of the navigation can be slightly confusing as it seems there are multiple ways to view the same information within the platform.

• The discovery network is limited and provides few options for finding new partners.
• Setting up a resources page for affiliates requires custom coding and is not simple to do.
• Introductory emails to potential partners in their network are often sent to inactive or wrong contacts that don't ever respond to introductions.

Highly recommended; the support from the team has always been exceptional. The prompt revert to the inquires and the live chat module resolves the queries real quick. The team makes efforts to close the ticket at the earliest, which is good for the users as they get the solutions easy and quick.
