    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.

    • 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.

    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

    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

    Channelyze.io Screenshots

    Screenshot of Manage leads across the channel:
Managing leads across three tiers has always been challenging, Until now! Channelyze makes it easy for any partner or distributor to capture, track, register and close leads. A chat feature for each lead helps improve the communication across the channel and increases the chances of closing the lead.Screenshot of Intelligent deal registration:
Providing partners with a way to protect their deals from being closed by other partners is an important yet challenging process for many vendors. It often requires the vendor to have manual oversight of the sales activities taking place and can be prone to error.

With Channelyze, vendors can define the exact criteria that partners must meet in order to benefit from deal protection and those eligible partners can register to protect their deals with a single click. Channelyze uses a fuzzy matching process to alert the vendor when a partner tries to register a deal that has already been registered by another partner and lets the vendor reject the new registration request.Screenshot of Reporting and analytics:
Create the reports you need to see how your channel is performing. Catered dashboards for each user give a visual representation on reach, frequency, and yield so they know where to focus their efforts. With Channelyze, vendors, distributors and resellers get a complete view of how individual product families are performing, how partners are performing and how certain geographies are looking. You have a powerful view on the state of retention, revenues, churn, win rate and pipelines.Screenshot of Price lists:
Pricing deals should be easy for your partners and with Channelyze it is. By entering your localised price lists into Channelyze, partners can price their deals simply by selecting the products and quantities they need to fulfil the deal. Channelyze does the rest. It calculates the list price, the partner margin, incorporating any vendor-specified discounts and shows the corresponding billing schedule.Screenshot of Assets:
Provide partners with sales brochures, one pagers, sales presentations and any other assets that will help partners sell. Assets can be targeted at specific regions and partner types and can be co-branded with the partners logo.

Assets may also be published externally, with performance metrics and lead conversion ratios available in a simple dashboard.Screenshot of Renewals:
It is a well-known fact that renewals are difficult to manage, especially when working with channel partners. The traditional CRM and PRM systems are not built for this purpose. Channelyze keeps track of every deal that has been conducted through the channel and makes the information easily available to renewal teams at the vendor, distributor, and reseller for when it is time to renew.
