More Infinite Blue Pros →

"It is very user-friendly, and intuitive, it will lead you and take you to the next steps.""The solution can scale.""What we like the most about it is the fact that it helps us track the record of our projects. It keeps everything on one interface, facilitating the operations and planning.""Marketing and Sales Lead, Forecasting, Campaign management.""Salesforce is cloud-based, so there's no installation involved. You simply log in using the provided organization login. There's no need for installation.""The keyword search helps me in finding stuff quickly. So, I don't have to click around a lot.""There is very good documentation available and Salesforce offers good communication with its clients.

Cons
"The solution is expensive. They should try to improve their pricing strategy."

More Infinite Blue Cons →

"The solution offers upgrades at a slower pace. The solution needs to keep up with competitors.""The interface could be more user-friendly and offer more customization.""I think that Salesforce can improve lead management when it comes to B2C. I would like to have more features specifically related to the B2C segment. The current process where you create a lead that's in the B2C segment and it creates an account makes no sense.""I don't have any notes for improvement. It serves us well.""Salesforce also did not integrate well with some of the other systems that we had.""Integration needs improvement.""I want more analytics in the platform and the addition of AI-based models, for example, predictive feedback. The Salesforce Platform needs to be more intelligent and intuitive to make it a great solution.""Although the platform is already set up for you, there's a lot of customization that needs to be done, especially for any new component we start using. For whatever solution we wanted, we had to think for ourselves and design it all on our own. And, unfortunately, there were some components that were not really mature in the beginning, like Tableau for example."
