## IPfolio Reviews
  ### 1. The best solution for IP Portfolio Management

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Débora R. B. | R&D Senior Scientist - Intellectual Property, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 15, 2024

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

IPfolio is a very powerful tool for organizing, storing, and managing our IP portfolio. With IPfolio I can keep track of my IP applications such as number of applications, prosecution status, office actions, costs, etc. After our implementation period we went through a long period of internal re-structuring. After a few years we started using IPfolio again, and the IT support team has helped us to update our databases and has also helped us customize it for our current needs. I have received training from the IT support expert Kevin Nugget and have mastered the use of the tool. I now can create my own templates, my own new fields, customize the pages for our needs/use, and I can keep track of budget and do cost forecasting for the following years all bymyself. What I like most about Ipfolio is that no matter how offen I need guidance, the IT support expert is always responsive and replies to all of my questions within minutes. I do not think I can find such kind of technical support anywhere else.

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

Nothing really. IPfolio can do all I need and even more.

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Portfolio management, cost tracking, tasks tracking. I have all in one place and it makes my work much more efficient.

  ### 2. Great Management tool

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer & Network Security | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 22, 2021

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

Easy to manage and navigate through the portal

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

User interface can be improved for better navigation

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Single and centralized management tool.

  ### 3. IPfolio is smart, nimble and intuitive ... the absolute best IP Management Software around.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kelly H. | Senior Patent Paralegal, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 30, 2020

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

I love everything about the product, from the fully customizable interface to the robust reports and dashboards. Working in IPfolio as an administrator, I can't emphasize enough how well-designed and constructed this product really is.

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

I've been using IPfolio day in, day out for close to 6 years now, and have yet to come across something I dislike.

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As a quick example, anyone managing a patent portfolio knows that mistakes or typos in a patent record (e.g., app number or priority date) can lead to issues down the road. One great feature of IPfolio is the IPSync feature which syncs your US patent records with the USPTO database. Any found discrepancies are provided in an easy to manage audit log. Errors are a thing of the past when using IPSync in IPfolio.

  ### 4. IPfolio - Top Notch Team and a Complete IP Portfolio Management Solution

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 14, 2020

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

The functionality, workflows and customizable options of IPfolio are critically important toward successfully managing global intellectual property assets all in one place.  From a complete invention disclosure process that includes an online inventors’ portal and interactive patent review process to an e-Billing API integration.  IPfolio is collaborative, adaptable, clever, intuitive, smart, trustworthy and affordable.

More importantly, the team at IPfolio who make it all happen are knowledgeable, supportive, friendly and enthusiastic about what they do and about the company.  I have worked with Kevin on several exciting and challenging projects, and he always goes above and beyond.  Kevin is incredibly personable, highly technical, very approachable and always responsive.  He cares about his customers, and he gets any job done.  Other key IPfolio team members who have made my experience with IPfolio so positive are Brandon and Tyler.  Their expertise and professionalism have also increased my ease of use and understanding of how to get the most out of this state-of-the-art cloud-based IP management software.

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

I have been a very happy and satisfied IPfolio user for three years and could not be happier.

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The endless options provided by IPfolio enhance and streamline all areas of intellectual property lifecycle management.

  ### 5. IPfolio for in-house IPMS

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consumer Electronics | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 26, 2020

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

Sync logs- would like this option expanded into other jurisdictions and for other Type of Rights (i.e. design/utility models); ability to customize fields and workflow rules for other business purposes

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

Need for a lot of custom enhancements- wish more were standard;  family graphs not easily viewable

**Recommendations to others considering IPfolio:**

Take time to work everything out during the implementation phase.  Changes and support seem more limited after go-live.

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Free-text/ keyword searches are great.

  ### 6. Most modern and flexible IP Management System

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Lars W. | Director Intellectual Property, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 26, 2019

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

Based on Salesforce Lightning our implementation of IP Folio is a very modern cloud based system which is highly adaptable and configured to our needs.

Specific areas of high value, compared to other IPM systems we have used or tested:
- Very modern user interface, that is beautiful and easy to work in
- Email integration, fast and easy tracking of communications
- Advanced reporting and beautiful dashboard capabilities
- Ability to easily change user interface layouts, work flows, reports, dashboards and so on.




**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

- IP Sync, connection with patent offices needs to be improved, it basically only works in a useful way with USPTO. On the other hand, do not know of any other IPM system doing this better.
- Document management integration (meaning how you can edit and work on documents like word directly from the system) is not fully integrated into system, you need to connect Sharepoint, Dropbox or similar software. From these Sharepoint is preferred but is not an easy set up task. This can also be seen as a advantage, since to my knowledge no other IPM system allows connection to Sharepoint. 
- Reporting capabilities are quite advanced, but if wanting to create advanced workflows with PDF/Word-documents and multiple connections between objects (patents, trademarks, agreements and so on) it is needed to use the Conga software, which is highly advanced but needs additional licenses, understanding and support. On the other hand, Conga is extremely powerful, and you can benefit from the whole Salesforce community and service providers. 


**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We work more efficiently.
We create more value by being able to visualize IP easier
We can easily create new layouts, work flows and ways to work, all from our own admin user setup, without asking for development resources.

  ### 7. One of the best

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 26, 2020

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

It's flexible and easy to make customizations.  Customer service is also top notch.

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

It can be very complicated to use or understand all of the features.

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Getting a better understanding of the portfolio, ability to run various reports and compute advanced metrics

  ### 8. Lightning upgrade has greatly enhanced the product

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nigel H. | Head of Legal Ops, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2019

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

IPfolio upgraded us to Salesforce's new Lightning framework a few months back. Beyond the obvious UI/UX improvements, Lightning has opened the door to new functionality/features that were previously impossible and we look forward to the continued tight-knit partnership with IPfolio to take advantage of this. We have been very happy with the improvements and Lightning continues to keep IPfolio at the forefront of IP management systems.

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

There is still the odd bug here and there as a result of our transition to Lightning. The IPfolio team has been quick to resolve once we raise an issue.

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are using IPfolio for complete end to end management of our IP portfolio.

  ### 9. Great IP tool w superb customer support

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Joseph K. | Director, IP Strategy, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 19, 2019

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

Phenomenal customer support from their entire organization from the bottom to the top.  And I should mention I'm ECSTATIC about the upcoming integration between IPfolio and Innography -- that feature alone would have brought me to the table when we were evaluating new IP mgmt platforms.

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

The family tree diagrams could be better.

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Besides serving as our docketing platform, the flexibility of IPfolio enables us to customize the tool for a multitude of business purposes (such as capturing business intelligence for licensing purposes).  A one-stop shop for all my IP mgmt needs.

  ### 10. Excellent deployment team

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Hardware | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 31, 2018

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

PAIR sync.  Intuitive interface.  Quick turn around for feature requests and bug fixes.  Needed features are at your fingertips.  Process flows work well with how we work.

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

Some of the data transfer from our old system is not clean.  The system is not able to use disclosure numbers that meet our needs.  After three months, auto-numbering for our docket numbers and family numbers have not been implemented to our specs.  No attempt was made to duplicate existing reports from our old system.   However, the pluses to this system far outweighs the minuses.

**Recommendations to others considering IPfolio:**

Get it.

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Speed in executing tasks in patent preparation and prosecution.  Views allow for easy accounting of work that has been done or needs to be done by several people responsible for a task.

  ### 11. Flexible, Customized, and Fast IP Solution

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Leslie G. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 15, 2018

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

We moved to IPfolio from another system that had been heavily customized for our organization.  As a result of the customization, the tool was nearly unusable it was so slow.  IPfolio was able to customize the platform for our unique needs and it is still lightning fast to search and get the information that we need.  We use the platform across all of our IP assets - patents, trademarks, and trade secrets - as well as to correlate our assets to agreements and partnerships.

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

I wish that the interface between the patent review process was more streamlined.  It takes multiple screens to send out patents and characterize them.

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are organizing and tracking our IP assets with IPfolio.  

  ### 12. Custom, Lightweight Solution 

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Leslie P. | Senior Litigation Counsel, Computer Software, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 23, 2017

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

We use IP Folio strictly for our Open Source and IDS submissions.  We had searched numerous tools to manage this process but IP Folio was the only one that was light weight and could be tailored to our specific process.  We're also thrilled that it can track our IDS process upon application and we can create a shadow docket for our internal needs as well.  

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

While it can do everything we need, the solutions are tied to SalesForces' capabilities, so sometimes the solution is somewhat different than how you would typically expect to solve a given scenario.  But the good news is that we've always found a way.  

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Easy management of open source requests and IDS submissions which are easy for inventors and developers to submit, increasing our adoption rate.  

  ### 13. I enjoy the ease of use with IP Folio and how the fields and dashboards can be customized.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Annie W. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 23, 2018

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

Ease of use; PTO syncs; dashboard visibility; 

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

PTO syncs do not port over all relevant fields from PAIR; some issues are not immediate fixes and is put in a queue for the IP Folio development team to work on without a fixed timeline for resolution

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Vast number of reports can be generated; customer service support is timely and efficient

  ### 14. Superb customer service, easy deployment, highly configurable

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 26, 2018

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

IPFolio's customer service is far better than any other platform we have tested. The IPfolio platform is highly configurable, unlike the legacy platforms.  And the user interface is fast, slick, and more polished than legacy platforms.

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

Nothing really, it has been a great experience to date.

**Recommendations to others considering IPfolio:**

Just do it, you won't regret it!

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Using it for management of Patents, Trademarks, Copyright, Open Source.
Easy to configure and manage all of our IP assets under one platform.

  ### 15. IP management suite with great set of features, modern UI and fantastic user support

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Anders B. | Patent Counsel, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 02, 2017

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

The standard setup matches all our needs, and where we were able to require some extras the flexibility of the system and of IPfolio also solved those needs.

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

Salesforce imposes some limitations on reporting - but by extending with the standard tool Conga Composer we were able to have excellent reporting. 
If your IT team are not familiar with Salesforce you may end up between a rock and a hard place, but IPfolio does their best to help around that.

**Recommendations to others considering IPfolio:**

Dream big, and don't be afraid to request non-standard solutions; this may be easily solved with IPfolio support.

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We have improved overview of IP cases, we are able to support the rest of the organisation better than with our previous system, we use less time on routine tasks.

  ### 16. IPfolio Fan

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Vincent S. | IP Manager, Research, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 01, 2017

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

Customizability and reports.  We can track multiple different metrics to determine what processes work best for our company.  Reports allow me to create easy to digest charts for presentations to board members and execs without any additional steps.  

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

Some relationships between objects are necessarily limited due to the nature of the Salesforce platform.  For instance, if any assets create a complex patent family, it may not be easy to track (e.g. claims of priority to more than one patent asset).  

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Our company is still small and I use IPfolio to track new filings and prosecution, as well as spend on outside counsel.  We have not yet leveraged the full capabilities regarding tracking patents against products or tracking revenue from patent assets.

  ### 17. IPfolio has greatly enhanced our productivity and improved efficiency

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consumer Electronics | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 01, 2017

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

IPfolio trikes a balance between expensive proprietary database solutions and h.  As it is build on Salesforce hence offers all of the functionality provided by Salesforce. Clean user interface with a variety of customization options that enable us to tailor the application to our needs. Superb customer support team,  extremely knowledgeable and  responsive.

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

Nothing to dislike.  We love it.  Just need to invest some time in order to learn the application and the underlying Salesforce platform.

**Recommendations to others considering IPfolio:**

IPfolio strikes a balance between expensive proprietary database solutions and spreadsheet.  As it is built on Salesforce hence offers all of the functionality provided by Salesforce. Clean user interface with a variety of customization options that enable us to tailor the application to our specific business processes and needs. Superb customer support team,  extremely knowledgeable and  responsive. Tyler Dunk has been particularly helpful in tuning the tool to our needs. IPfolio provides regular updates to the software and maturing the features.  Over the course of our use, IPfolio expanded their feature offerings via partnerships with other vendors to provide even more functionality such as PAIRsync, annuities payments, billing.  

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use IPfolio to manage our patent and trademark portfolio.  In the past we used a spreadsheet.  IPfolio allows us to enter and view data in a variety of customizeable formats, reduces errors and time for data entry using PAIR Sync and bulk uploads, generate report for various stakeholders

  ### 18. IPFolio

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 23, 2018

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

I like the different fields of view within each of the IP rights folders.

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

I find running reports often difficult and cumbersome. 

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are bringing our patent portfolio in house rather than handled by outside counsel and find it to be an organized platform to store our patent information.

  ### 19. A great tool for in-house management of Intellectual Property

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consumer Goods | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 01, 2017

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

IP Folio allows a cloud system to manage your IP matters from anywhere.  You can keep track of patents, trademarks, contracts, etc.  The system allows to access the patents and patent applications from USPTO and EPO sites by entering the correct application numbers.   The system also allows to send emails straight to each IP matter, keeping all the communication and documents related to each matter in one place.  

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

The management of patent family can be somewhat unintuitive.  

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I no longer have to use spreadsheets to keep track of IP matters and download Patents and Patent applications for each matter as the system will retrieve them from official websites.  Also, all the emails for each matter are kept in one place.

  ### 20. Great product; great service!

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Phillip M. | Senior Counsel, IP, Automotive, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 07, 2017

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

Because the system is hosted on salesforce, it is very stable and reliable.  Rupert and his team have been great to work with.

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

Nothing.  Great product and great company to partner with.

**Recommendations to others considering IPfolio:**

You will not be disappointed.  You can spend less but you will receive far less in return.

We use it for invention life cycle tracking and storing prosecution related documents for our IP portfolio.  Massive increase in efficiency and accuracy of data.

  ### 21. Simplifying the unneeded complexity of IP

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Legal Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 07, 2017

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

IPFolio's approach is simple, straightforward and inherently powerful.  Building on the time-tested foundation of SalesForce, IPFolio provides a compelling answer to those with questions concerning the cost management of their portfolio.

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

IPFolio is a developing application that is short on its strategic goals of covering any size portfolio of all IP at this time. 

**Recommendations to others considering IPfolio:**

IPFolio's competition will lure you in with sometimes sexier client names or an apparent low cost approach.  Don't believe it.  Companies like Anaqua, CPA Global and Clarivate will entice you in and then lock you in to using their services - even if they are more inefficient or costly.  Competition is good - but they are bad.

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

System integration and the concept of an open marketplace are where I would like to be - and where IPFolio leads me.

  ### 22. Great Customer Service

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Internet | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 07, 2017

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

Great team to answer all of our questions. The team really listens to our users and the unique needs of the organization.

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

Communication can improve. A few times we a couple of weeks with no status updates. Need to keep users in the loop.

**Recommendations to others considering IPfolio:**

Definitely recommend to other considering IPfolio. Very customizable, ease of use and great customer service. 

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Currently we are at the implementation and roll out stage. IPfolio is still in the process of tweaking our organization's specific needs. IPfolio has a great team to rollout the software with realistic timelines.

  ### 23. IPfolio is a phantastic service for exchanging  information regarding all items of a patent portfoli

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Peter E.W. A. | Partner, Legal Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 03, 2017

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

The system is absolutely self-explaining.

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

It is difficult (for me) to exchange data with inventors.

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As a patent law firm we receive information of our clients patent. As soon as we have received we transmit to IPfolio withou additional correspondence. Further we communicate with the client via IPfolio without searching the file.

  ### 24. Amazing tool that makes my workday alot easier

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Oil & Energy | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 30, 2017

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

This is a great tool that helps us keep up to date on all our patents and trademarks on a daily basis. As our IP attorneys also have access, the database is very easily kept up to date at all times. The best part of it all is the amazing follow-up we get from the IPFolio guys who normally answer within only a couple of hours when sending them e-mails and problems/issues solved very quickly. 

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

There is nothing to dislike. I love IPFolio.

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We used to have our patent information in an excel spreadsheet - which in the end was close to collapsing. Looked at several different options for online tool when we discovered IPFolio and fell instantly in love with it. Have never regretted choosing IPFolio and can highly recommend the tool.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** David M. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 03, 2017

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

I liked the streamlined interface as well as the customer service.  The representatives were always very responsive.

**What do you dislike about IPfolio?**

There were certain actions which needed to be performed which I believed required too many "actions" aka too many clicks to achieve a desired result.

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We were managing the patent portfolio of a 2 billion dollar company.  We were able to track all of our filings to help prune the portfolio of old patents to save millions in corporate cost reductions.

  ### 26. Great system to use, especially for the price!

**What do you like best about IPfolio?**

IPFolio is really easy to use for any IP need.

When running trademark reports, can only get the class number and not the list of goods also.

Information from parent application doesn't automatically duplicate when opening children applications

**Recommendations to others considering IPfolio:**

For the price and what this software does, it doesn't get any better.

**What problems is IPfolio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Lets me easily keep track of docketing, allows me to be able to file some of our own applications, overall saving the company thousands!

Having a centralised depository of key IP data.

I like the solution's flexibility.  Being able to modify sections. fields, reports, etc. is important to us as  our IP management policies and strategies evolve.

Thanks so much for the frank review, these kind of reviews really help us get better, we need to hear this. We are sorry to hear about some frustration with report exporting, I am sure we can help and improve that experience.  And there may be some other solutions, our Conga integration for example. 
  
We really want you to be happy with IPfolio, so as you use the system please let us know how we can also improve your overall experience; or if you have ideas about how to make the system better.
