Understanding Deal Navigator

From the left-side Navigation Menu, click on Deal Navigator, and your workspace will display Deal Navigator.

Sort by Top Opportunities

Deal Navigator automatically highlights high-priority opportunities using smart sorting logic based on:

  • Deal Size – Larger deals appear first

  • Close Date – Prioritized if the expected close is within the next 14 days

  • Stage & Activity – Late-stage deals that haven’t seen activity in the past 3 days are surfaced to prompt action

Ecosystem Intelligence Signals

Ecosystem Intelligence surfaces recommended partners based on key relationship signals:

  • Recent Wins – Partner recently closed a deal with the account (last 3 months)

  • New Contacts – Partner added 1+ new contacts at the opportunity level

  • Long-Term Relationship – Partner has had the account as a customer for 2+ years

  • Missing Contacts – Partner has key contacts not in your CRM

  • Crossbeam Activity – Partner has shown recent engagement on Crossbeam

Using Filters

There are several filters you can apply to the table that help you narrow your focus and surface the most valuable opportunities:

  • Stage: Filter by the stage of the opportunity to prioritize deals in later phases

  • Deal Size: Focus on high-value opportunities by selecting larger deal amounts

  • Close Date: Zero in on deals expected to close within a specific timeframe

  • Partner: Filter by partner to identify opportunities with relevant overlaps

  • Opportunity Owner (Sales Managers only): View and filter opportunities by rep to manage and coach effectively

Use these filters in combination to get a targeted view of your most actionable pipeline.

In the table, select an Action icon or click in the Account row to open the Account Detail Drawer in a side panel. From here, you can explore account highlights, see trusted partner contacts, and most notable account activity.

In the Account Detail Drawer, click on:

Account Tab

The Account workspace provides key partner insights for the account you’re looking at and company information.

Partners Tab

Message partners directly by clicking on the Message button to request warm intros or align on deal strategy.

Contact Tab

The contact tab surfaces contacts partners and provides additional context based on the shared number of partners and partner activity. Ecosystem Intelligence signals are also piped into these contacts to help you know who the decision-maker might be, or who just recently had activity with your key partner.

Add Account to a Shared List

From the account row, click on the Add to Shared List Action icon for team collaboration and follow-up.
