What do you like best about Backdrop?

Backdrop has enabled us to consolidate and manage the materials that we send daily to our customers. With a number of products we support, there are endless spec sheets, white papers and video we need to get to customers both inside and outside of the sales process. With Backdrop we're able to do this right from within Outlook which is part of our existing workflow Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Backdrop?

The only qualm I can think of is that Backdrop tests to add features quickly which can sometimes be jarring. Its hard to say that is a dislike because we have used many of the new features, however knowing ahead of time would give us some notice to inform our users, thats all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Backdrop:

Invest in guided training - we tried to go it on our own and it was too dependent on our own remote staff Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Backdrop solving and how is that benefiting you?

With Backdrop our users dont have to sift through our shared drive or get on the (inconsistent) VPN and then attach files to emails. Instead, we work entirely from within Outlook and skip 3-4 steps which for a newly traveling team is a huge advantage Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Backdrop Overview

What is Backdrop?

Backdrop is a sales enablement platform that helps go-to-market teams easily find and share deal documents and other information with buyers in virtual deal rooms we call Backdrops. Backdrops take seconds to create and provide an engaging, fully branded, secure space that makes it easy for buyers to collaborate with you. Best of all, your team can quickly prioritize and understand deals using instant insights when their recipients open, view, print, download, or even share documents. Sales playbooks, strict security, version control, and other useful features make Backdrop a no-brainer for any team that wants to accelerate their deals, appear more professional, and be more consistent from deal to deal.

What do you like best about Backdrop?

Backdrop offers many features that assist sales. With Backdrop you can be assured the customer receives the information you sent him / her even when they say they didn't receive it. You receive messages telling you when they open the doc(s) and for how long. Superior! Backdrop offers a library where docs are stored, so you don't have to hunt for them each time you start a campaign or allows you to include select docs with other communication you are sending your customer. When you have multiple users, this will enable you to have all users select from the same list of docs. We use Backdrop to send all quotes and associated documentation with each proposal. Backdrop lets you know when the information sent is forwarded to others in their organization for review or if they pass your information on to contacts outside their organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Backdrop?

The one and only dislike I have is finding enough time in my day to fully utilize all the features Backdrop offers in my hectic day. Don't get me wrong. Backdrop is easy to use and learn it's not a challenge to use if you use computer programs at all, I am simply trying to fit 20 lbs into a 2 lbs bag. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Backdrop solving and how is that benefiting you?

I now know when the customer has opened my email and how much time they spent reviewing the information included in the communication. Knowing this lets me schedule a time with the customer to review all the information sent to them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Backdrop?

Easy to use, great way to present more than just your bid but a full portrait of your company as a way to always remind your customer of who you are and what you can do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Backdrop?

Trial period usage did not give us the full benefits of Backdrop due to limited features during this time. It's like wanting to buy a sport car but only allowing the user to drive a yugo. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Backdrop:

If your company needs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Backdrop solving and how is that benefiting you?

1. The best way to present to a customer a full spectrum of the benefits of buying from your company.

2. Provides an easy and practical way to share documents without the worry of overloading your email or getting lost as spam.

3. Great way to keep all your deals separate and organized. It eliminates the need to create multiple folders in your email and no more hunting through all your emails to find which attachments you've sent to a customer for a specific deal.

4. The real magic happens when you get notified that your customer has opened your document, and you know how much they've read and who they forwarded it to and what they've done with it. That's a level of inside information that is invaluable for a sales team, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sending collateral and quotes used to be a black hole of sorts, with no confirmation they were being viewed. We now know and can tailor our next step with insight. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
