Retailer Portals

My team has the opportunity to spend a significant amount of time in various retailer portals downloading store lists, POS data and other files as part of the work we do for our customers.   We routinely encounter errors with the portals and in particular during peak times like early morning.   When prospective customers ask me why they should purchase a service like Accelerated Analytics instead of just using HomeDepotLink or RetailLink or Partners Online I often let them know one reason is because those portals tend to unavailable for significant portions of the day.   

Looks like today is going to be one of those days….
