About Marcom Portal

Marcom Portal is a cloud-based platform for digital asset and brand management, which allows users to customize and distribute marketing materials and brand assets while still managing access, brand integrity, and compliance. Field marketers, sales reps, agents, franchisees, brokers, and distributors can all be granted access to customizable materials online.

Marcom Portal enables users to customize content from the field, using the web-based ‘marketing intranet’ to access brand assets from anywhere. The design of the marketing portal can be customized, and users can enable and disable different levels of access permissions to ensure that individuals can only edit and distribute content they are authorized to access. Personalized content can be created, including proposals, direct mail, html, and collateral, with rules to ensure unique content is delivered to every recipient. Multiple ad sizes are automatically generated, and files are automatically converted into a range of formats, including JPEG, PNG, GIF, TIF, and PDF.

Payments can be processed securely through Marcom Portal, and multiple distribution options are available. The system integrates with a range of other business applications, including Salesforce.com which enables the dynamic merging of customer data into marketing materials.

The system is slow. The wait time b/w click and next screen is way too long for 2018 tech.

We are working on streamlining our marketing collateral communication. This gives us a platform to do so with our sales team.

Pros

The ability to use it as a marketing hub for our collateral. It really allows us to share within the team and without.

Cons

The slow response of the system. It is a very rigid system, for something being used to host files it should give a little more flexibility. Also, it is not possible to completely delete anything off the software. You just have to hide it.

MarcomCentral has really helped me streamline my whole inplant print experience. The automation it provides me on the back end, helps me produce work faster. The web based store front on the front end help the users quickly and easily place orders.

Pros

First, ease of use for the end user. Second, I am able to set up separate catalogs/logins for each of the different departments that use the store. Third, the variable data/Fusion Pro templates really makes it easy to get personalized items out. Lastly, the way the billing is handled makes my administration end easier.

Cons

I do not like the way the submit job is handled, especially at the billing end. I do not like there is not a button in the portal that say go to cart.

Overall great experience and we are definitely excited to see what updates come in the future

Pros

It changed the way we use and create our collateral! It's much easier to brand out pieces fro clients and have multiple versions of our pieces with different text, Logos, Legal, and even images.

This has made projects that can take a month to create for multiple clients to take less than a week.

Cons

The Loading of the website is slow, The use of flash throughout makes it tough for clients to use and understand the piece. there are many extra unnecessary "clicks" that are present like constantly refreshing the piece for updates ( Maybe integrate it into the drop-down where it refreshes when you click a new selection in the drop-down.

Reviewed on 2018/01/04

Pros

Marcom's print-on-demand functionality is fantastic. There are so many possibilities that we are just beginning to explore. There are some integration hiccups but mostly on our end, and Marcom has worked to help us through those as best as they can. Also, they have been very open in discussing improvements that we are looking for and keeping us up to date on the progress of those updates within their own development schedule. The depth of this software is extensive and their customer support personnel are always very friendly and helpful.

Cons

I would say the limited variability on the front end UI, without excessive amounts of Dev hours from Marcom or our internal IT team, is a bit of a downside. It did not seem that this was the case during the initial proposal, and we felt a bit misled during the beginning of our relationship with Marcom. However, they have worked with us extensively to mitigate any of the frustrations or concerns we had and continue moving towards a great relationship, and a great overall system. The system is complex, and the organization of the options could use a bit of work, but once you spend some time in the admin portal you are able to get a fairly good grasp of what all of your options are and where everything is located. If you have questions, Marcom's team is always willing to help answer questions or guide you through a process.

We have had nothing but great experiences with Marcom. This technology has helped us remove production time from the marketing department and allowing us to work on other projects instead. This self-serve tool has allowed our users to utilize the functionality at its fullest. The only issue we have come across is within the Business Intelligence system, which has had some hiccups that haven't allowed us to pull precise reporting. We have not been able to produce reports that can support the complete utilization. We believe once these are corrected we will have everything we need from Marcom and it's system. However, overall this system has been excellent for our company and has been accepted by the majority of our users.

Pros

The customization capabilities overall.

Cons

The low functionality of the rich text editor

Response from MarcomCentral

Zach,

Thank you so much for your positive review. We will work closely with Birst to get these hiccups resolved for your integration, and we are so pleased to hear that the tool overall has been helping you and your company.

Thanks again!
