Partnerize vs. Referral Rock

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

Referral Rock is very relevant in cases where you already use Salesforce or HubSpot and want to integrate/streamline your Referral Marketing process with your Sales Management process (which is where Salesforce and Hub Spot are mainstream). Referral Rock might be less relevant if you don’t use Salesforce or HubSpot, but in that case, the pricing is also much lower, and you still get great value for the cost.

Incentivized

• Selection of merchants
• Create data reports
• Striking inferface

Incentivized

• Onboarding support
• Ease of use
• The ability to automate referral payouts.

• 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.

• Just a few minor missing features that I have been told are on the roadmap. Certainly not blockers.
• Gift card payouts that work internationally, even if the currency selected is specific to a certain country (i.e. a $100 USD gift card payout amount should still result in the ability for the recipient to choose a gift card worth $100 USD, but available in their home country. Right now we are limited to only those gift cards available within the payout currency country).

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

Overall usability is solid. Their customer support and success team made it super easy for me to understand the software, how to use each feature, and how to get the most out of the product.

They are very responsive and prompt when we had questions come up. Support has been great.

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

Referral Rock is overall a better platform. It provides more and better-implemented functionalities. It also provides much better integration with Salesforce/HubSpot and better user support.
