"The most valuable feature for us is the support, which is really efficient."
"Image backup is a valuable feature. Even though this is a common feature, it is very helpful for us."
"A very flexible solution."
"The standard sales and marketing tools that Salesforce provides on the platform are the most valuable."
"The stability has been great."
"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."
"I found the ease of use most valuable in the Salesforce Platform. I also found the platform pretty light."
"The process and the workflows are amazing."
"We used it for providing a 360 view of the customers from within Salesforce. So, a lot of data got presented there, for which we used Einstein Analytics. The Einstein Analytics dashboards were really great."
"Salesforce is the best one out there."
"It would be nice to have more built-in suites compared to others. It would enable easier integration."
"It doesn't offer Elastic IP like AWS. And also we can't configure our server based on region."
"I don't have any notes for improvement. It serves us well."
"It does need very specific resources to help deploy it and buy in from the users. It's one of those items it's pretty disruptive and if it's not deployed properly and if it doesn't get utilized efficiently, it won't be effective."
"It may be slow, but that is relative. When compared to Siebel CRM, which was large, clunky, and extremely slow, Salesforce seemed fast to me."
"In terms of features, for our business needs, we have more than enough right now. There is nothing that we are missing or would like to add. They can maybe share some best practices so that when you are starting, you can stick to a good process, and you don't have to think so much about the process that you want or your CEO or CMO wants. The process should not be based on one person in the company. Having some best practices will make it easier to get started. These best practices can be based on what has worked for others. Its basic version is pretty simple, and the customizations are up to the companies, which can make startups like ours lose a lot of time in figuring out what all stakeholders want rather than what would work."
"This platform is indeed on the expensive side."
"Sometimes what will happen is we work on it and then we move to a different tab and work on something else. After five minutes, when we come back, it automatically signs out."
"Salesforce Platform has a cumbersome interface when creating reports, dashboards, and those types of things. They could be a little bit more simple. The administration has to be an aficionado to do any sort of administration and maintenance, for example, setting up the way you want to modify the lead tracks or functions. These systems tend to be quite cumbersome."
"The initial setup is rather complex."
