  • The Visual experience is amazing - dashboards are so good, data is clearly understood from the Key Point Indicators point of view.
  • From a basic BI platform to the level it has come to today, the user experience is elegant and design is wonderful.
  • A thing of beauty is how Salesforce has kept all the useful features of Einstein Wave Analytics and brought it up to date with most modern features: The reporting feature is one example of that.

Easy on-the-go Analytics!

  • Easy drag and drop report builder. This makes it very easy to pull reports quickly.
  • Easily manage sales cycles. It was very easy to set up the sales cycle with very little help from our devs.
  • Easily manage everything from one place such as social, chat, behavior, etc.
  • Having direct access to client information helps us solve problems quickly. I love how it creates a record. No more going through email chains.

  • It has dashboards that, out of the box, can be useful for people who do not want to put in much effort in creating custom dashboards. It also has the ability to customize dashboards so you can add more info and functionality to your dashboards if the need arises.
  • The developers are continually investing in the platform and providing improvements, and listen to customer feedback and feature requests. They regularly update the app and provide more functionality which has been beneficial to our institution.
  • Native integration and natural connection if your organization is already using Salesforce. Super easy to set up and works well with Salesforce. Very smooth and natural when connecting it to your Salesforce instance.
  • Excellent visual experience for presenting data. Users find it so much easier to navigate and view data in a visual way, which allows them to drive their performance in the right directions.
  • Has the ability to pull data not only from Salesforce but from other external systems and databases, making it an all-around BI tool. Mixing data from Salesforce and other third-party systems puts all your data in one place which can easily be ingested by decision-makers and executives.
