Salesforce Platform Review

We primarily use the solution as a support console. 

The product has definitely helped us improve our support services.

The way the solution is able to record and update within the feeds, including internal conversations, is really helpful on a case by case basis.

The initial setup is pretty straightforward.

I've used Salesforce for five years within different companies. It's the first CRM I used and I have kept using it. The UI or UX is probably what I'm most familiar with. I don't think there's anything that makes me feel uncomfortable. It's easy to use.

The solution is really good if you need to have direct communication with end-users like retailers and that sort of thing. 

The product is pretty responsive.

At this particular organization, we only just implemented support about six months ago. There are still aspects of the solution we are exploring and we are in the process of looking at some integrations. We're just testing its capabilities, and therefore I can't say there are any features that are missing per se.

If you have resellers or distributors, you just need to figure out a way to set up the system in the backend. Since every company is different, it takes a little bit of time to figure that out.

I've worked with the solution for five years across a few different companies.

We haven't had any issues with bugs or glitches. We haven't experienced any freezing or crashing. So far, the solution has been very stable and reliable.

We're working with a pretty basic model right now. We haven't tried to scale anything just yet, as it is still relatively new to the company. I'm not sure if we plan to increase usage in the future or not. If we do decide to scale it, we'll have to discuss how to do that with our Salesforce representative.

That said, currently, I don't see any limitations that would make me think there would be an issue with scaling if we wanted to.

I'm not sure how many of our team is actually on the solution.

I haven't had the opportunity to reach out to technical support just yet. There hasn't been a need. Therefore, I can't speak to how knowledgable or responsive they are. 

We didn't previously use a different solution. This is the first implementation.

We haven't found the initial setup to be too complex. It was rather straightforward for our team.

We're just customers. We don't have a business relationship with Salesforce. We primarily use the solution for internal use. We don't deploy it to clients. I'm not sure of which version we are using. It's likely the latest one.

I'd rate the solution seven out of ten overall. It really is a fit for all business types.
