How Does a cleverbridge Partnership Benefit a Super Affiliate? – Video from Michael Eltzroth, vice president business development and co-founder, TopTenReviews

Chandan Garg, COO for Systweak

“We had been using various providers since the inception of the company, but eventually we switched over to cleverbridge in 2009, and the difference was impeccable…You have all the things in one place and a great team to work with.”

Jeff Ozarski, Business Development Manager for Minitab

“Bringing in cleverbridge allowed us to have a lot of knowledge we did not have in-house…When we work with cleverbridge we know that they are going to pay attention…they make you feel like you’re really a part of their company and that was pretty unexpected.”

“With cleverbridge, Minitab has been able to improve efficiency and move beyond previous e-commerce capabilities. From coordinating a seamless launch, to giving us more international payment options and support than we ever had before, cleverbridge is the perfect partner for a global enterprise like Minitab.”

Robert Pinkas, VP of Sales & Marketing for Lamantine Software

“Working with cleverbridge has been very easy. We have dedicated account representatives for different parts of the business – for the marketing side, for the reporting side, for the affiliates. The reporting is amazing. It can tell us an extreme amount of details about who buys, who visits the site, who doesn’t buy, which is also important. The technology is really amazing. Once we made the switch to cleverbridge, it was pretty drastic. We went from single dollars sold per day to tens and hundreds and thousands because the process is just seamless. cleverbridge makes it really easy on a customer to go through the actual checkout process, which was not the case with the previous provider. cleverbridge also has tons of language and currency possibilities for checkouts. As we are attempting to be a global business, payments and local currencies are essential. On top of all this, once we do the sales, we needed the reporting into very minute details and the cleverbridge platform, the Commerce Assistant and the Business Intelligence parts of it are extremely valuable and is in my opinion hands-down the best platform for e-commerce out there.”
