A Better Partner Experience: Quoting and Ordering, Now Built Into the Partner Portal

Let’s Talk

We're always looking for ways to make working with Acre easier for our partners. Starting in August, quoting and ordering move directly into the Partner Portal, alongside the product collateral and pipeline visibility you already rely on.

Discover, quote, and order. The whole deal, start to finish, without leaving the portal.

How It Works

  1. Discover. Browse collateral for the core products your end customer needs.
  2. Quote. Build it directly against your pricebook. Select SKUs from the catalog. No spec sheets, no memorizing part numbers.
  3. Collaborate. See the same pipeline and opportunities your Acre rep already has moving, so you're working from the same picture, not a partial one.
  4. Review. Want a second look before it's final? Send it to your RSM for review, right from the portal.
  5. Order. Place it. Done

What's In It for You

  • Never lose sight of a deal. Pipeline and opportunity visibility runs in real time, not over email or a call.
  • Move faster with your end customers. No back-and-forth just to get a quote started.
  • Acre stays with you, every step. Quoting together with your Acre rep is still very much on the table. This is simply the faster lane for quotes straight from your pricebook.

A Couple of Things You Might Be Wondering

Does this replace working with my Acre rep? No. Quoting together is still available any time. This is an additional path, not a replacement.

What if I want someone to check my quote before it's final? Submit it to your RSM for review, right from the portal.

How do I get set up? Reach out to your RSM. They'll get you access.

The Bottom Line

This is what a better partner experience looks like in practice: less waiting, more visibility, and the same relationship with your Acre team you already count on. Just faster.

This capability rolls out globally in August.
