ADR is a great interactive tool for B2B businesses that sales deals one-on-one with the customer. I don't think it would be well suited for B2C businesses because of the need and cost for individual licenses per user. I would highly recommend this tool to B2B companies that practice traditional sales with a technological edge.
Postwire is great if you have longer sales cycles requiring a lot of content sharing. Much better than email attachments. May not be well suited for transactional sales and shorter sales processes. I found it to work really well when sharing video content and large PDF documents.
Content Mangement System - Our Marcom department is able to maintain and update the app in real-time and push updates directly to our team without going to an outside vendor. The CMS has a great UI/UX and is easy to use and maintain.
What's New Feature - Our sales team can easily see every time we make additions or updates.
3D capabilities - the ability to use animation image sequences on the app really impresses our customers.
Uploading documents is very important and I haven't hit a max of megabites being uploaded.
User access to post-wire. You're able allow all parties to see it, you're able to make it private and there are some advanced settings where you can lock it or prevent people from downloading certain documents.
User Interface - it's simple and easy to use. Sometimes, with other solutions, when there are too many options, you get a little overwhelmed.
App Data Room has been instrumental in allowing our sale representatives to present up-to-date and innovative marketing collateral to potential customers. A second value add is that our Marketing Department is able to create and upload the most current material to the app so that our sales representatives have access to the most up-to-date information to present to our customers.
Unfortunately, the decision to renew does not fall on me. However, I have told the decision maker that I believe that we utilized Postwire incorrectly when we started. I believe that rather than sending links to our Postwire pages to prospective clients in our introduction email, they would be better suited to send after connecting and agreeing to send them additional information. That way, you can explain that it will be in the format of a Postwire link due to it's ease of use.
Overall, the App Data Room product is easy to use. Our Marketing Department is able to quickly upload updated and new material once they create the documents. Users are able to quickly find material filed by subject matter. Once the appropriate material is located, it can be presented on their iPad and emailed to prospective customers who indicate interest in the products.
The few support requests that we have submitted have been resolved within 2 business days. The App Data Room staff has also been responsive to suggestions from our staff to upgrade the product - specifically in the area of analytics.
No, key insights. Implementation was easy. The App Data Room staff hosted initial training sessions for our support personnel, and then these support persons conducted training and support sessions for our users.
We've used custom developed tools in the past but the upfront cost is very high and the solution we had was very costly to update. We did not have a CMS previously so real-time updates were unheard of. App Data Room has all of the features we previously had plus so much more.
Clearside has less features and is very simple. It's convenient because it comes free with Sales Navigator. There is limited functionality and you can only have a certain number of different clear slides accessible at once. There is also a lot of other random LinkedIn content that shows up on ClearSlide, but I'm not a fan. I prefer paying with Postwire over free with LinkedIn.
