    BL is great is you're going from a manual process to something more sophisticated. I'm not sure what the competitive landscape looks like with regards to Reference Software nowadays, but when we were evaluating a few years ago, BL was ahead of all other vendors in terms of functionality and integrations with SFDC

    Any business, regardless of size, can benefit from using Symantec Mail Security. It's very well customizable, easy to use and set up, and easy to maintain. It's a great tool to avoid unsolicited messages, security issues, phishing attacks, viruses, etc. It's really reassuring that the software is kept up-to-date, so we can be sure to be protected should a new kind of attack emerge.

    Pros
    Upland Software
    • The system provides more visibility into available references and prevents references from being over-used. It allows the client (reference) to choose how often they can be contacted in a given time period and provides a closed-loop feedback mechanism to make sure the client is providing positive responses.
    • Allows account executives (sales people) to easily request references based on: product Used, customer vertical, location, account size, expertise, etc.
    • Uses a “Five Star” method to show how relevant the answers are when a results are returned from a search.

    The process of asking each reference how often they’d be willing to be contacted was the biggest task.
    We made assumptions for current clients, and ask each new client once they become a customer.
    Along with which specific skill-set they’d be willing to be a reference

    While I was one of the decision makers in this process, I didn't sit on the demos for the other providers (I was brought in further in the sales process). My understanding from my team was that BL was much more configurable and support more robust integrations that the competitors
