"Change the Channel"
5/5
What do you like best about Channelscaler?

Channel Mechanics integration team and their attention to detail was excellent. They worked shoulder to shoulder with my team to ensure our expectations were met, very little disruption to our channel partners, and helped us with a very successful launch. The data collection and reporting provided by Channel Mechanics have given my channel managers the tools to grow our business and insight into our channel partners' performance.

What do you dislike about Channelscaler?

The dislike, or better yet, to level set the expectation, Channel Mechanics is a tool - and as such, it is as good as the data that a person or team feeds it. This isn't a platform that will give you instant growth but it does provide the user/company with the means to collect and manage data so that business decisions can be made in a timely, efficient manner. As stated, this isn't really a dislike but just a level set of what to expcet from a platform such as Channel Mechanics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Allbound is a force multiplier for our channel"
5/5
What do you like best about Channelscaler?

Our Allbound portal is easy to access and navigate. Creating playbooks and training paths for new partners allows us to grow our channel without adding full-time staff to our team. The portal looks very professional, unlike our previous WordPress portal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Channelscaler?

We have had a few Resellers ask about marketing metrics from the prospect pages. Currently we can only see how many views, not the specifics of who viewed, how long they were on the page, or if they forwarded to anyone else on their team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Mitel engagement with Channel Mechanics"
5/5
What do you like best about Channelscaler?

Channel Mechanics has worked with our partner-facing data to present it in a comprehensive, while still easily digestible format. The visuals are user-friendly and designed to drive engagement with our channel community. The Channel Mechanics team has been helpful and resolved issues quickly to the best of their abilities. Our regular cadence meetings help keep both organizations on track and ensure we are meeting our deliverables. I always feel like we are two sides of the same team working towards a common objective - providing a great channel management tool set that meets the needs of both internal and external stakeholders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Channelscaler?

We occassional experienced some data issue - not uncommon when handling such a large amount of data on a monthly basis. These issues were generally resolved quickly with input from both Mitel and Channel Mechanics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Love the platform and simplicity"
4/5
What do you like best about Channelscaler?

It's very easy to onboard and set up for client resources. We use this daily for multiple accounts.

My company is able to easily upload many documents, videos, etc for clients to access without needing to create a back and forth email chain.

We were onboarded to Allbound very easily and were supported through the entire setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Channelscaler?

Resource UI needs an improvement. From a user standpoint, it's easy to miss the "View Now" button on the right to download a PDF or view a video. I think some layout adjustments need to be made on this screen.

It's visually unappealing and could use a face lift. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Game Changer for our Business"
5/5
What do you like best about Channelscaler?

With the implementation of Allbound, the ability to provide all assets and tools in one place, as well as keep open lines of updated communication visible is invaluable. For almost every partner question we receive, we can answer it with "you can find it in our Partner Portal in xxx location". The ability for our vast partner ecosystem to self-serve allows us to grow and serve at a much greater capacity than before.

I use Allbound myself all day - I keep the tab open because I refer to the partner details and content constantly. There's no way to keep the amount of information required in our heads - so having a quick click and scroll to find the answer saves me a huge amount of time as well.

This is a critical application for organizations that are serious about their partner program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Channelscaler?

I can't think of anything I don't like. It has revealed some inefficiencies in our set up of our CRM fields that became apparant during mapping, but with tweaks these were remedied. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
