"Point of Reference- a great vendor to partner with!"
What do you like best about ReferenceEdge?

ReferenceEdge has a well-thought out workflow for the entire reference request lifecycle process. I especially appreciate the automation it provides so the reference pool can be grown at scale. Another great quality about the product is that it is Salesforce-native. So it feels like you're working right in Salesforce. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ReferenceEdge?

The amount of patches they send out to fix bugs is a bit more frequently than we'd like.

We also have to create workarounds in our workflow sometimes so the tool fits our processes .But that will always be the case with any piece of software since every organization's environment and processes are different. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"" Reference Process Simplified""
What do you like best about ReferenceEdge?

Their support and software have enabled our company to move from a very rudimentary process of securing a reference to a well-managed program. They are a customer-focused company, from the Account Director to top leadership. They listen to customer feedback and continually implement new feature functionality to improve the product.

What do you dislike about ReferenceEdge?

The UI doesn’t always seem to be intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Software, Great Company, Great Team!"
What do you like best about ReferenceEdge?

TopBloc has been using ReferenceEdge since May 2022, and since then, we've seen our customer database grow by 300% and have doubled our revenue from customer references year over year.

I love how user-friendly and powerful the tool is—it’s really helped us unlock the full potential of our customers' testimonials.

But it’s not just the tool, it’s the whole experience. The ReferenceEdge team, especially my Account Director, Sonya, has been amazing. She’s always so helpful and goes above and beyond to ensure everything is running smoothly. Our weekly meetings have become a highlight for me!

I highly recommend ReferenceEdge 100%! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ReferenceEdge?

I would not recommend activating opportunity attributes. These settings might add unnecessary complexity, and without a clear strategy or immediate need, enabling them could cause more confusion than benefit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ReferenceEdge makes customer advocacy so much easier to manage. It allows for our sales teams to successful with the use of the references in RefEdge. Alongside that, RefEdge allows for us to track all of our marketing activities and keep track of important data on our advocates.

"Identify references quickly to accelerate sales motions"
What do you like best about ReferenceEdge?

The software allows you to customize profiles to align with your company's solutions, products, use cases, etc. That is critical to capturing the right information for GTM to easily identify references for their customers. I also love the account managers - all great. This is the third time I have used ReferenceEdge, and their account relationship managers and leadership care about your success. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ReferenceEdge?

Customizations are often not easy, but Point of Reference is open to them if they are also a priority for other users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great tool, great support!"
What do you like best about ReferenceEdge?

ReferenceEdge has everything we need in one tool! As the admin, I can manage all our reference accounts and content, create reports and dashboards to measure our progress, and manage the request process from beginning to end. Sales and marketing users can easily search through our reference content, nominate customers to become references, identify relevant reference accounts, and submit requests – all without leaving Salesforce! Plus, its extensive feature list provides essential core functionality, along with the flexibility to customize the system and workflows to meet our specific needs.

"Salesforce native and easy to use for account owners"
What do you like best about ReferenceEdge?

Moving from a spreadsheet to an RMS like ReferenceEdge helped increase our awareness of customer advocates and monitor the activities that our advocates participate in. Being salesforce native made it a seemless integration into our crm. The process for account owners to find and approve peer to peer calls is easy to use and understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ReferenceEdge?

It can be a little clunky on the reference/customer advocacy teams in terms of tracking activities, but we've also only tapped the surface of what they system can do. As we utilize the system fully, I'm sure the clunkiness will be less of an issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great and scalable reference tool!"
What do you like best about ReferenceEdge?

ReferenceEdge has helped us go from a program that was difficult to use and impossible to report on to knowing exactly when and how our Sales team uses the program and the direct ROI of our references. The tool is very easy for our sellers to leverage and we've been able to make quite a few customizations to make it work even better for our organization. We've been able to use this tool to support not only reference management but also content sharing for things like case studies and quotes. The support we get from RefEdge is fantastic, they're very receptive to product enhancement ideas and are always making improvements. Our business systems team helps us manage the backend of ReferenceEdge and continuously raves about the positive experience of working with ReferenceEdge. Their product releases are always comprehensive and easy for the team to implement. Working with this vendor has been the ideal experience for our team! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ReferenceEdge?

I'll be honest, I can't think of a downside to ReferenceEdge! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
