Point of Reference
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.

Cons
Point of Reference
  • Ability to pre-populate a 'win wire' with deal info from SF. I believe this is being developed now.
  • Standard organization of 'attributes' so it's easier to break out that report column into per-attribute columns.
  • I like that they have an active Trello board for user suggestions and incorporate requests with each update.

  • Some critics argued that it is costlier than old version.
  • Now I feel that it is not wrong to pay a slightly higher amount for a superior product rather than settling down with a sub-optimal outcome.
  • Country wise Payout calculation is challenging for us But you opt for multi currency integration as an add on which solves this problem very effectively.

Alternatives Considered
Point of Reference
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.
