Production impact
25% of scoreThe Technology Insight study reports satisfaction and loyalty on the exact products a lender is choosing between: POS, LOS and CRM. That changes which vendor gets picked, and the platform decision is the largest technology commitment a lender makes. The MBA peer roundtables do the same for operations. A reported 250-plus companies use STRATMOR each year. Few competitors put evidence of that kind in front of the decision.
Functionality and depth
25% of scoreForty years in the market, a named senior bench, and data assets a lender cannot obtain any other way. The Technology Insight study and the MBA peer roundtables are proprietary. You either buy access to those satisfaction and loyalty figures or you guess. Every other advisory firm here sells judgment. STRATMOR sells judgment plus the numbers underneath it, and that is the strength here.
Independence and market position (2.8). The Solution Provider Advisory program is a disclosed conflict, and still a conflict. It sells vendors monthly access to STRATMOR experts. It adds review of vendor demos and roadmaps plus Technology Insight data. STRATMOR states the program was not designed to give vendors a voice in lender negotiations. The disclosure is real and the structure still cuts against the buyer. The fee is not public.
Adoption and support
10% of scoreThe engagement model is settled after forty years, with a named senior bench behind it and a reported 250-plus companies using STRATMOR each year. The MBA runs the peer roundtables jointly, so a lender is never the first one through the door on any of it. You are buying into something already operating rather than a practice being assembled around your project.
Return on spend
10% of scorePremium pricing, none of it published, and it still clears. The alternative to buying satisfaction and loyalty data on POS, LOS and CRM is picking a platform on sales-deck impressions and living inside it for a decade. One avoided bad pick pays for a lot of advisory fee. The conflict is real: STRATMOR sells vendors a subscription including study data lenders contributed, at an undisclosed fee. They say so publicly instead of hiding it.
