    Salesforce Partner Management is a great tool for scenarios where a partner portal needs to be created in a quick and cost-efficient manner by teams that do not necessarily have a broad technical knowledge and when the time to market is key. In the situations where the use case is more advanced and cannot be covered by the out-of-the-box functionalities of SPM, then the tool is less effective.

    Cons
    Salesforce
    • One thing is, you have to put the time you took on the case if you edited it. I would like to change the name or a note and not have to go back and put how long it took.
    • Reports can sometimes be hard to create.

    We are definitely going to renew as we created and developed a very functional and complete solution that we won't want to lose. and the reason we achieved that is by continuously evolving and enhancing. That would not be possible without the qualified technical support we have at our disposal internally.

    Usability
    Salesforce
    Salesforce Partner Management is complete and has great usability. Just as a Salesforce full CRM does. However, when you have to deploy the initial implementation and/or create the infrastructure for your Salesforce Partner Management it might require, as expected, a very good support and development team and resources

    Alternatives Considered
    Salesforce
    Tune provides great on-boarding experience for new users, but the functionality of the product itself is limited. For example if you multiple partners worldwide who sell your product, Salesforce CRM integration is a must to achieve business goals. Salesforce ecosystems helps to avoid having multiple tools and licenses. One big differentiator is that Salesforce Partner Managements allows for personalization that is user-friendly, while with Tune user is expected to do some coding

    WorkSpan is much more integrated inside our CRM system, and serves as a product offering more than a service offering from the others in this space
