Is it me, or is it very difficult to search/find relevant LaunchPoint partners?

I see that Marketo LaunchPoint has gone through a recent redesign.  I've used it a few times lately to try to find integration partners/services for some of our needs.  I'm also very familiar with some of the well-known partners - and when their company names don't show up in the search results, it leads me to believe the search isn't working properly.  For example:

When searching for "blog", I want to see what other partners exist - in addition to Perkuto's Digesto service.  But Perkuto isn't even listed here:

So then I search for "advocacy" - and want to see what other partners exist in addition to Influitive.  Once again, Influitive isn't listed here - just these two:

These are just two examples.

I noticed this as well. Who runs this now?

Dan,

My company no longer shows either. May be we are supposed to get into it a reapprove our listings, or recreate them... I just do not know and I do not remember having received any communication about this.

Hi Greg, Multiple emails were sent to partners and a notice was posted to the old site, alerting partners of the impending website migration. I'm sorry the communication did not reach you. Please send an email to launchpointhelp@marketo.com to contact the LaunchPoint Team and get your listing re-instated.

Hi Jane - but what about patners like Perkuto - who are in LP - but aren’t surfacing in the relevant search results?

Hi Dan, When I search "blog", Perkuto does come up in the search results now. If you'd like to discuss search further, please send an email to launchpointhelp@marketo.com with some available time slots and I'll schedule a time for us to chat.

Hi Dan, Thank you for your post. The search in the new site works very differently than the old, as you have discovered. We've opened up the search to allow larger result sets, but are still working on improving the search experience. Feel free to contact us directly at launchpointhelp@marketo.com with further questions or comments.
