Chose ReferenceEdge
We also evaluated ReferenceView from ROInnovation/ Upland. ReferenceEdge from Point of Reference was lower cost for complete functionality, plus their ongoing support model is second to none. SlapFive has great video functionality, which we may use at some point, but isn't a …

Chose SlapFive Customer Marketing Software
For us, this was the solution Acumatica needed to be able to attach the marketing strategies that we care about the most all the way to a finite or micro-content level. It's not ALL about the BIG fancy marketing videos and story interviews. LOTS of incredible customer content …

Comparison of Brand Advocacy Tools features of ReferenceEdge and SlapFive Customer Marketing Software
Absolutely the best for managing customer references/ advocacy. Comprehensive functionality and attentive and responsive support model, and they don't charge extra to use value-add functionality, such as the automated check-in on reference status, contacts, etc. They know this field and need thoroughly and have thought of everything. Native to Salesforce streamlined deployment and up-leveled cross-company support, and also were my full partner in educating me on how to use Salesforce reporting, which is a valuable professional advantage.

If you want to capture your customer's voice with ease and have a path to break the reels down into actionable insights for prospects that attach to their biggest questions, fears, and doubts, then this is what you are looking for. This is for those prospects that will not be "bothered" with marketing fluff or marketing speak. These are the types of buyers who want to drill into the heart of what they are trying to solve as a business and see and hear from personas and businesses which look like them.
Simplifies and streamlines complex matrixed customer information
Enables strategic engagement through easy access to customer reference accounts, contacts, content, and activities they've participated in as well as are interested in participating in
Cross-company adoption and visibility through native Salesforce integration
Load balancing and protection from over-use/ burnout - critical.

Speed of the platform for users. This could be because we have a LOT of content, but it can at times be a pain point that we work to address together with the SlapFive team.
Ease of search function could get better. I have trouble doing searches and sometimes get time-out issues.
Having a "user portal" so we know when there might be bugs being worked on or a service issue that is being worked on without having to email someone each time. More for self-service and tracking.
We also evaluated ReferenceView from ROInnovation/ Upland. ReferenceEdge from Point of Reference was lower cost for complete functionality, plus their ongoing support model is second to none. SlapFive has great video functionality, which we may use at some point, but isn't a customer reference/ advocacy management platform. And its comprehensive marketing functionality was more than our team needed. ReferenceView was a failure, unfortunately. Way more expensive. limited functionality, and an abysmal support model.

I'd say it's a bit simpler than RO Innovation, but also much more affordable, especially considering their video capture capabilities which RO Innovation does not have.

We have raised our portfolio even higher where we dominate our market when it comes to having the best relationship with our customers across everything we do. Website, peer-to-peer review sites, customer stories, customer references, and MORE. I believe it's because we BELIEVE in the same ETHOS as SlapFive, and we LIVE to make HEROS every day of our customers and infuse the sound of our customer's voices in everything we do.
Product Marketing DEPTH of customer's voice is beyond what anyone else in software technology businesses has done. It's typical that product goes and "does product" all day long, and customer marketing does its own separate work, and never the tween shall meet. Not so at Acumatica. Nothing leaves our Product Marketing teams desk without customer voice connected now. The ease of SlapFive Customer Marketing Software's platform and our broad adoption make this possible.
