Top-Rated Affiliate Marketing Platforms

Hey everyone! I’m helping our team evaluate affiliate marketing platforms to boost partner-driven growth. We’re looking for something that balances automation, reporting, and ease of use without requiring a full dev team to get up and running.

Here are a few tools I’ve come across on G2 that look promising:

1. impact.com: Covers everything from affiliate to influencer management—any thoughts on how it scales for fast-growing brands?
2. PartnerStack: Seems to be a favorite in SaaS circles. Is the onboarding experience as smooth as it claims?
3. Awin: A longtime player with global reach—curious how it performs for smaller teams just getting started.
4. Tracknow: Lightweight and easy to use. Is it powerful enough to support growing affiliate programs?
5. Later Influence: Built more around influencer partnerships—has anyone used it in a broader affiliate context?

If you’ve used any of these or have a hidden gem to recommend,I’d love to hear your take. What's made your affiliate program easier to manage or more successful?
