Offers real-time intelligence, stable product and improves interactions with customers in service environments
What is our primary use case?
I'm a system integrator implementing the product for other companies. Typical use cases involve improving interactions with customers in service environments. This could be either a call center setup or using field service agents to service products on-site.
How has it helped my organization?
It is straightforward to integrate Service Cloud with third-party tools or other systems.
In most cases, we use MuleSoft as the integration technology when a direct API integration is needed.
What is most valuable?
I'm seeing more investment in real-time intelligence. This utilizes data, AI technologies like bots, and solutions like Customer 360 to interpret data in real time. This helps agents resolve customer interactions faster rather than having to navigate through multiple applications.
What needs improvement?
There are a few areas of improvement.
- One area for improvement could be in the speed and accuracy of analytics, particularly around resolving cases. There's room to enhance SLA (Service Level Agreement) management as well.
- Secondly, the Knowledge Management platform could use some intelligence improvements. Data mining techniques for recommending the most relevant knowledge articles would be beneficial. Currently, that selection process is more administrative. AI could be used here.
- Finally, within Field Service, it would be great to see better asset and inventory management capabilities built directly into the application.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using it for seven to eight years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
It is a stable product. It has been in the market for quite some time, so it is a stable product.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
I would rate the scalability a nine out of ten. It is pretty easy to scale.
It is suitable for medium and enterprise-level businesses.
How are customer service and support?
The customer service and support are pretty responsive. The processes are quite established. So, I didn't face any challenges with the support.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
There is ServiceNow. People think it is cheaper. But it is suitable for small organizations.
Large organizations prefer Salesforce.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is very easy.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I would rate the pricing a five out of ten. The licensing is flexible. Companies pay for what they use.
However, a company with very small needs might find it difficult to justify the cost. Overall, it's in the medium price range.
What other advice do I have?
Overall, I would rate the solution an eight out of ten. I would recommend it to other users.

However this can be improvised in forecoming time with more data present with salesforce team basis frequency of use cases reported.
