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.

## Why Migrate from Portals to Experience Cloud sites?

Experience Cloud sites offer all the functionality available in portals and customer portals, plus more features including:

- 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
- Collaborate with your partner users in groups and feeds
- Share files
- Access to reports and dashboards plus the ability to create custom reports for your site
- Single sign-on and login support for multiple authentication providers
- Content moderation, direct messages, and much more
- 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.

## If You Continue to Use Partner Portals

All the information about setting up partner accounts, users, portals, and tracking partner sales is available in the [Salesforce Partner Portal Guide](https://resources.docs.salesforce.com/rel1/doc/en-us/static/pdf/salesforce_partner_portal_guide.pdf).
