“A portal that keeps improving!”

Pros

Something I value most about it is how flexible and needs based the platform is! After using it for a year they've customized and built out the portal to match our vision and framework really well. They continue to make the product better too both by adding new features and refining the core platform. Also their customer support has been excellent :)

Cons

Its biggest drawback is probably tied to its biggest advantage. Since the portal is extremely versatile we don't end up using every feature and the admin side can sometimes feel a bit cluttered. That said I wouldn't really fault it too much because I still appreciate having those options available.

“fast rollout”

Pros

Getting from proof of concept to a full rollout only took about a month and the whole onboarding process felt quick and simple. Paul was a huge help throughout, guiding us through the platform and configuring it around our company's specific requirements. When we were comparing PRM options the Salesforce integration really set this apart. Changes to fields or values sync over almost immediately which made the onboarding process much more smooth. After connecting it with Salesforce the platform showed a lot of flexibility and was simple to adapt to our needs both from a structural standpoint and in how the portal looks. Our CSM (Navin) has also been excellent about making sure we get the help we need and are taking full advantage of the platform so we can keep improving the portal over time. The support team has been extremely responsive and communicates clearly. They usually understand the problem right away without a lot of back and forth and tend to offer solutions or meaningful updates proactively. Now that we're nearly a year into our contract I'm very pleased we went with this. Every person we've worked with has been well informed, helpful and genuinely collaborative.

Cons

At the beginning the admin portal felt a little outdated and somewhat overwhelming because there are so many settings and options to work through. A few features also seem like they should be located together or handled in a single step but instead they're connected to other settings which can make navigation confusing early on. That said it becomes much more manageable once you understand how the system is organized and how the logic behind it works.

“custom branding and smooth sync”

Pros

A thing that really stands out about the platform is how modular it is. We were able to create a custom interface that matches our Pigment branding perfectly so the portal feels truly customized to our business rather than generic. Being able to configure and embed website pages directly inside the portal is also a big plus since it gives us a centralized source of truth. On top of that the direct Salesforce sync is incredibly valuable. It gives us real time updates and lets us manage partner user access through Salesforce while automatically syncing that information into this system. That keeps our data consistent and integrated without forcing us to move away from Salesforce as our main system of record. We can keep Salesforce as the primary repository and still share the right information with partners without having to buy internal Salesforce licenses for them. During the guided hands on proof of concept the overall user experience was positive as well. The setup process went well, the documentation was useful and the training sessions helped make onboarding fairly easy. Altogether these capabilities have made partner management much more organized for us.

Cons

The admin side can be pretty difficult to work with because there is a lot of navigation involved and it doesn't always feel flexible when trying to implement things effectively. Reporting is another area that could be stronger. It would be helpful to have better visibility into which documents are used the most which items get the most clicks and which ones see the least engagement along with suggestions on how to clean up or organize files.
