"Salesforce is crucial for your career"
What do you like best about Salesforce Platform?

I enjoy how customizable and data rich Salesforce can be. The amount of information that salesforce has is crucial for enhancing your visibility into accounts, deals and oppoortunities as you progress your deals. I do also like how the integrations fit within the platform. Enriches the data even further.

What do you dislike about Salesforce Platform?

I believe that the UI could get an update eventually, but actually every time I do see an update I feel getting used to the new features can take some time. Lightening is probably one of the better enhancements in a long time. I wish there was a easier way to build reports as you switch companies. Sometimes it's hard to find what logic a specific company you're working for uses vs your previous company's.

What problems is Salesforce Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

Salesforce helps solve the need for identifying gaps within an account I am reviewing. I can go in and see past opportunities, notes, and even calls that have been recorded throughout time. See the emails and so on, this helps with understanding an account and it's users before you cold call.

"The best CRM with all the bells and whistles"
What do you like best about Salesforce Platform?

There is an option to create formulas in the reports. This is not available in Hubspot. This is a super useful feature. Eg: I have a column for the subscription end date and I can create a formula column to calculate the number of days remaining.

What do you dislike about Salesforce Platform?

Not much to dislike but the platform can be a little intimidating for a first time user due to the number of settings and clickable items available. The first time I saw Salesforce was in 2019, when it was called Salesforce Classic and the case object is specifically what I used to work on. It felt like an airplane cockpit with the number of buttons/fields. Salesforce improved the UI with lightning. A suggestion would be to have a program to collect feedback from the actual frontliners who use the platform. Not the SF admins. The users would be able to provide a lot of helpful insights.

What problems is Salesforce Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

- Managing customer data in one place. - A central source of truth and all customer information. - The ability to report on various objects and create informative reports with grouping and filtering logic.

"One of the best platform for business applications"
What do you like best about Salesforce Platform?

The 360* view of accounts and customers while using real-time analytics to take better decisions and easy customisation to suit business needs. What it does is, it provides all your business unit needs with an omnichannel solution.

What do you dislike about Salesforce Platform?

Pricing is a bit on the higher side of the scale, and the resources are also costly. In addition, sometimes, it takes a lot of time for implementation. Although the team is constantly working on bringing out updates, streamlining the business process would be helpful.

What problems is Salesforce Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

Salesforce uses all the data captured and stored in silos around the various applications or databases that are not being used. Salesforce gathers the data and helps the team make critical decisions using reports and dashboards.
