    Screw the name, they should just focus all their energy on simply creating a truly functional and effective portal.

    Don't ask us what to call it.  That is absolutely meaningless.  Ask us what features it should have, with ideas on how to make it better in a substantive way.

    My money is that this will be for Sage Business Cloud partners and that it's going to mostly be a sales focused portal. At least that's what I remember from the last time they were floating this back in the 2015-2016 timeframe.  Extra credit for anyone who can add up the different portals that Sage now forces partners into.

    ​Why are portals so difficult for Sage? I've worked with many other publishers, and they don't have problems. They have one integrated portal for partners and it evolves over the years with no apparent issues. Sage is overthinking this.

    I'm almost convinced that Sage chose the current platform based solely on the fact it has integration with social media.

    "Someone can Tweet about a KB article?!?  That sounds amazing!"
