Full walkthrough
- Marketplace Management powers ZINFI's Partner Locator — a public discovery tool that makes channel partners findable to potential customers anywhere in the world. It lives on the pre-login page of the portal, so prospects can search without an account. The top nav here has Home, Marketplace, Locator, Sign Up and Feedback, plus Login — this is the Locator page.
- Find a Partner in Your Area is the headline experience: a Filter panel on the left, and an integrated Google Maps display on the right that updates with partner pins as results come in.
- Before any search runs, the map shows the global view with no results populated yet.
- Clear all and Search appear at both the top and bottom of the Filter panel, so they're always in reach no matter how far you've scrolled.
- Search by lets you choose Location or Name — a prospect who knows the area they need coverage in, versus one who already has a specific partner in mind.
- In Location mode, Country is required and is the starting point. State and Zip Code progressively narrow the radius from there.
- Search Within sets the radius from the Zip Code entered above — 25 Miles (40 KM), 50 Miles (80 KM) or 100 Miles (161 KM).
- Solutions Offered checkboxes — like Antivirus Solution, Cloud Solutions, Cybersecurity Solutions or Firewall — narrow results to partners who deliver that specific capability.
- With Country, State, Zip Code, radius and any solutions set, Search runs the query. Press Next and we'll run it.
- Results populate to the right, and the map now plots pins for every matching partner.
- Switching Search by to Name changes the experience — press Next and we'll switch it.
- The Location fields collapse, and a single Search by Name field appears — type any portion of a partner's organization name. Solutions Offered stays available, so you can combine a name fragment with a solution filter.
- Search retrieves every matching partner by name. Press Next and we'll run it.
- Each result card shows the partner's logo, organization name, distance from the searched location, a Get Direction button, phone number, website link, and a Learn More button.
- Get Direction hands off to Google Maps with turn-by-turn navigation from the searched location to the partner's registered address — handy for planning a visit or verifying a physical presence.
- Grid View lays out every match as cards side by side for comparing partners at a glance. Location View switches to a full map with pins plotted for each result.
- Location View depends on the partner having Latitude and Longitude stored in their Partnership Information record — partners without them won't show as a pin, even if they match the search. Press Next and we'll switch views.
- Notice one matching partner isn't plotted here — that's the one without stored coordinates, even though it's a valid result in Grid View.
- Learn More opens the partner's full details page. Press Next and we'll open it.
- The left panel shows the partner's name, full address, phone number and website.
- Two tabs hold deeper information. Company Description covers industry specialization, a company narrative, and partner type — essentially a profile introduction for evaluating fit.
- The Location tab shows an embedded map of the partner's Main Office address with a Get Directions link. Press Next and we'll open it.
- This is the same Get Directions navigation, scoped to the partner's main office.
- Back returns to the results list. Press Next and we'll go back.
- In the top-right corner, the language selector shows the current locale — like USA-English. Press Next and we'll open it.
- Países — Countries and Regions — sits on the left, Idiomas — Languages — on the right: Chinese-Simplified, Chinese-Traditional, English, Español, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean and Portuguese.
- Aplicar — Apply — renders the entire Partner Locator page in the selected language: filter panel, map labels, button text and headings. Press Next and we'll apply it.
- That completes the Partner Locator: searching by location or name, reading and viewing results two ways, the partner details page, and multi-language support for a truly global discovery experience.
Questions about this tour
- What is the ZINFI Partner Locator?
- The Partner Locator is a public, pre-login partner discovery tool a vendor publishes on their website. Buyers search by location or company name, read the results, and open a partner details page with the partner's profile and contact route.
- Does the Partner Locator work in multiple languages?
- Yes. The locator supports multiple languages, so the same partner directory can be presented to visitors in different regions.
- How do partners appear in the locator?
- Listings are driven by the partner account profile held in the platform — location, partner type and solutions offered — so the public directory reflects the same records the vendor already manages.
- How long does the ZINFI Marketplace Management tour take?
- About 9 minutes at a normal pace — 28 guided steps through the Marketplace Management module, part of the ZINFI Unified Partner Management (UPM) platform under the Accelerate pillar. The tour is self-paced and can be left and restarted from the beginning.
- Do I need an account to take the Marketplace Management tour?
- No. There is no sign-up and no demo call. The tour runs in the live interface on sandbox records, so nothing you click changes real data, and you can exit at any step.
