What To Look for In a Portal
Reseller Portal. A reseller portal is perfect for building out a new channel program and can handle hundreds to thousands of partners. It can also integrate with most CRMs in about 20 minutes. When you start having a lot of MDF, promotions, and deal registrations, you will need more analytics and automation. You can either create it within your marketing automation or CRM, or it is time to consider a PRM (although many vendors will still miss the simplicity of the portal-based approach).
You can see a sample portal (this is the one from SaaSMAX) at http://saasmaxpartnerportals.com/ (make sure to click on the Samples menu to see various looks and feels and several live sites). You can also view a video webinar I presented below that explains what to look for and gives a peek at the portal itself. The inside of the portal starts at 35:35.
