Definition: Vendor lock-in is a situation where switching from one technology or platform to another becomes prohibitively expensive or complex. In partner programs, reducing vendor lock-in for your PRM ensures flexibility and long-term scalability.

How Introw Helps: Introw avoids vendor lock-in by keeping all partner data in your CRM — HubSpot or Salesforce. If you ever switch platforms, your data stays in your system of record, not locked in a third-party tool.

Partner-Facing Example: A company evaluating PRM solutions chooses Introw specifically because all data lives in Salesforce. If they ever change their PRM, their partner data and deal history remain intact in the CRM.
