Multiple portals for separate support audiences
Run separate portal surfaces for different audiences from one workspace so customers, prospects, and partners stop tripping over the same support and feedback path.
Why this can grow a startup
A single public portal often tries to do three jobs at once. Existing customers want issue visibility. Prospects want proof that the team listens. Partners may need a narrower support lane with different language and expectations. Separate portals keep the backend unified while letting the front door match the audience. That reduces confusion, keeps the requests cleaner, and makes the product feel more intentional at the point where trust is still fragile.

When to use it
Use this when Support, Lifecycle, Product Marketing is relevant to audience segmentation, support-led growth, enterprise trust and you can run a bounded test with a low budget.
When not to use it
Do not use it as a substitute for customer evidence, a clear owner, or a measurable stop condition. Local platform rules and market behavior still need checking.
