A rigid product that is hard to customize, has no mobile app, and is rarely updated by the vendor
There is no mobile application. The product is unmoving, as there is no obvious development or enhancements being made. When we are trying to compete in a market we need an updated product. The product is not easily customizable and we have to depend on the reseller for that. It's a rigid product. There are no reports available.

Uses data-driven insights to improve workflows and highlights a need for simpler automation tools
Salesforce Sales Cloud can be improved in several areas. First, the UI is an area for enhancement. Even though they've launched Lightning, it's clunky at times with page load speeds. It also needs to be made extremely more user-friendly. For new people using Salesforce Sales Cloud, there is a steep learning curve. Additionally, giving non-admins the ability to make changes on the fly is something that I feel is necessary. Currently with Salesforce Sales Cloud, you need to have a consultant. It's hard to build the flows or workflows. Making it easier for that end-user who's not so technically minded to help themselves is essential. I choose seven out of ten because I think you need a consultant or a consulting company to help you build it out. Certain changes should be made much easier and more user-friendly where an admin can do it. The automation processes need to be much simpler. If you're looking at other tools out there, for example SalesLoft or HubSpot, it's much easier to build those workflows and do automation.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Stability-wise, it is working fine with no technical faults."
"The most beneficial aspect of Salesforce Sales Cloud is my development life cycle will have been shortened."
"It is expensive but also one of the largest business systems you'll have in your company because it'll integrate absolutely anything you need it to."
"Salesforce helps up keep track of candidates."
"When it comes to the lead management process, we track and evaluate the different stages and the challenges in each stage. It's so that the entire team has visibility of what's going on with each individual lead."
"I've found lead management to be the most valuable feature of Salesforce Sales Cloud. It helps capture, track, and manage leads throughout the sales process. The tool is easy to learn."
"Our productivity and capability to solve and anticipate problems in the Call Centre team increased at least 50%."
"Quick go-to-market with a sales process Utilization of the "platform as a service" features of Salesforce Appexchange packages help to quickly hit requirements Robust feature set when considering all the Salesforce packages - Sales Cloud, communities, Service Cloud etc."
"The biggest benefit of the Salesforce Sales Cloud is a centralized point, a centralized source of truth for customer-related information; you centralize all the information in a single database, and that's the biggest benefit."
 

Cons

"There are no reports available."
"My advice is not to waste time implementing this product."
"Salesforce Sales Cloud does not integrate with Slack or WhatsApp, for example. As a result, there is no easy way to directly log a conversation with a client that occurred on one of these platforms. There are a few things that still need to be done manually in these instances."
"It is expensive."
"It would be nice if they had an ERP offering or a firm strategic partnership with a best-in-class ERP."
"Auto clean for duplicate leads, accounts, and contacts needs improving. When importing from other apps, it gets messy."
"Salesforce Sales Cloud is not as simple to use as Zoho. It requires some level of expertise before you can use it. However, you can easily learn how to use the solution as you go along."
"The price of Salesforce Sales Cloud could be reduced. It is expensive."
"It could have a more user-friendly interface."
"When importing from other apps, it gets messy."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are paying for a subscription."
"It's expensive, storage being the most costly aspect."
"We pay a yearly subscription fee."
"The price of the Salesforce Sales Cloud is expensive. We pay monthly for the solution but we are billed quarterly."
"In terms of investment value and return of the investment, Salesforce right now is pretty good on the Western markets where the price of the employees is pretty high."
"There is a license required to use this solution and the price is expensive. It could be reduced."
"The price of the product is very high. I rate the product price a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one means low price, and ten means expensive."
"The main issue is the price. Because it's SaaS, you will have to pay on a monthly or yearly basis."
"Implementation and add-ons may be additional costs."
