Salesforce recommends that you migrate from partner portals to Experience Cloud sites. Portal licenses are supported in Experience Coud sites so you don’t need to switch licenses.
Required Editions
| Available in: both Salesforce Classic and Lightning Experience |
| Available in: Enterprise, Performance, Unlimited, and Developer Editions |
Note Starting from Summer ’13, portals are no longer available for new Salesforce orgs.
Existing organizations using portals can continue to use their partner portals or migrate to
an Experience Cloud site. If you don’t have a partner portal, but want to share records and
information with your partners, give an Experience Cloud site a try. Contact Salesforce for
more information.

- A rich, responsive, mobile-ready Lightning solution designed with channel sales and marketing workflows in mind: Partner Central
- Build personalized, rich experiences with your company’s branding

- Single location where you can design, moderate, and manage your site
Plus, we’re working round the clock to bring you more features in every release.
