Everflow - Partner Marketing Platform vs. ShoutOut Global

It's very well suited for any mobile marketing campaign that has a specific set of KPIs based that are setup towards specific events. It's not as well suited for retention or campaigns measured by cohort. It's also not the best platform to run desktop campaigns for, but few platforms have the dual capability.

If you are mainly using Instagram influencers to promote your business, ShoutOUT works excellent for that. Most of those influencers aren't very tech-savvy, so giving them a coupon code to track their sales and commission them off of that seems to work well. The mass payout feature is pretty simple to use as well, but I wish that you didn't have to do it on a 1-on-1 basis.

• Live Chat feature/Customer Support.
• Reporting options and Custom Flex reports.
• Extensive knowledge base.
• VERY few technical glitches that ever cause more problems than they have to when hacks/crashes/glitches happen. They keep their platform functioning well.

Incentivized

• Great for simple, not very tech-savvy influencers or affiliates.
• Ties in seamlessly to Shopify Plus, which is a must for our organization.
• Simple dashboard, easy to manage affiliates.

Incentivized

• Some reports are hard to find or understand without explanation.
• Integration with our websites is delicate and does sometimes break.
• User interface is simple, but no frills.

Incentivized

• Not a vast network of affiliates to choose from if you need them to facilitate that side of your business.
• Sometimes the tracking by coupon code doesn't seem to work correctly, and the numbers don't match up with what we see on the backend of our Shopify numbers.
• Could make it easier to add creatives and deep linking for affiliates.

It works perfectly for what we need it to do. It is very inexpensive, works well, and makes it easy for us to navigate and use. We can easily add new affiliates and create coupons for them to track their sales. For the influencers that are a little more inclined to post product links and go the more traditional affiliate approach, we can certainly provide that option for them and go that route as well. We like the ease and simplicity.

Pretty responsive, but that's kinda expected within the space. TUNE has chats open and available right away.

We only had to use it once, but they got back to us very quickly and helped us solve the issue that we had. So, ShoutOUT support is batting 1000% in our book, but that is only 1 out of 1 and may not be enough of a sample size to verify that they are as good as we think.

Everflow blows cake out of the water and is (in my opinion) still better than HasOffers. We selected Everflow because of the team behind the project, the amazing customer support we received even before migrating, and their capabilities with tracking.

We used Shareasale and Commission Junction in the, and they are awesome to manage your traditional affiliates that run blogs or email campaigns. We would still be using those if we did more of a traditional approach to influencers. But since we moved over to a more influencer based marketing approach, ShoutOut is fantastic and has made it simpler for us and our affiliates.

Incentivized

• Allows us to manage and grow affiliate marketing
• Partner marketing has grown our business
• Affordable price and very high return on investment with strong partnerships we have formed.

Incentivized

• Very positive right off the bat because we dropped our Commission Junction expenses and got most of our bigger affiliates to switch over to keep their sales.
• Easy to use and much simpler for our affiliate manager to do her work.
