    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

    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.

    • During the testing, no missing functionality was noticed.
    • Nevertheless, consumer advocacy for business demand could have been improved in terms of option availability.
    • The rest of what is available is adequate to meet the expectations, however future demands needs would be a future challenge to modify and update the existing internal functionality.

    Implementation Rating
    Upland Software
    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

    Great platform to use to engage and [communicate] your advocates. Zuberance is the right partner for you if you're right to comment to customers. Zuberance does the heavy lifting, it's on you to figure out your goals and needs as you know [the] customers and work it in the best.
