    Astronomer is well suited for workflow and dependency management for enterprise-level data lakes. It is not a product for data processing though. Different source systems can be integrated, it also provides powerful interfaces for alerting and monitoring. Easy to build DAGs, graphical UI, API support makes the product more user-friendly as well. Astronomer also does a great job on user training.

    Great tool for client management, sales tracking, cases studies. Using is as the source of truth for all client communication. Allowing more integration options for cc and ACH payments. Right now the options are limited and only integrate with strict processing capabilities that are not always in the businesses best interest.

    we have evaluated Snowflake, adobe rt-cdp as well. They also offer a very strong capabilities but the Data 360 is more suitable for us because of the same Salesforce ecosystem. The main key factor is without any custom code we were able to include it into our automations. And ofcourse with agentforce already in plans, we had to pick Data 360

    • Salesforce Data Cloud has a positive impact on me as a realtor because it is easy to generate reports on customer data and see what is needed to be bumped to the next level. We have to earn a certain commission by the end of the year and it makes it easy to see how close you are
    • It has a positive impact on keeping track of customers because it is nice to have it all in one place which is a nice time saver
    • I like that you can even see customer info from other agents making it nice to compare and try and pass others
    • Makes the customers journey smooth sailing because everything is in one place
