"Identify references quickly to accelerate sales motions"
5/5
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.

"Salesforce native and easy to use for account owners"
5/5
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 seamless 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 the 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!"
5/5
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.

"Feature-rich Customer Advocacy Tool with Great Salesforce Integration"
4.5/5
What do you like best about ReferenceEdge?

ReferenceEdge enables sales teams and customer account managers to manage reference requests and recording reference use without using their core Salesforce screens. It's intuitive to use and requires very little training to get users up-to-speed. It's feature rich and I particularly like that it's fairly configurable to map to different reference program initiatives. The dashboards provide helpful metrics on the health of your customer advocacy program.

The reference search capabilities are good and you can search on keywords as well as by your configurable filters.

I like that I can configure and use manual attributes to add to accounts so I can build in reference use cases.

The account team are great partners and really address and own any issues you have in ReferenceEdge. It feels that they are invested in the success of your advocacy program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ReferenceEdge?

The reference prospector features are a bit clunky but I believe it is on the roadmap to address and to enhance this aspect of the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The reference queue is easy to use, lays everything out simply and makes my job easier when I have every reference activity right in front of me.
