What is Salesforce Experience Cloud?

Salesforce Marketing Cloud Engagement (formerly Salesforce Experience Cloud or Salesforce Community Cloud) is an online forum powered by Salesforce that enables businesses to connect with their employees, customers, partner organizations, and prospects. Designed to help facilitate communication and information sharing, customers can ask questions and request help, administrators can integrate data from third-party apps, and employees can collaborate across projects and tasks.


The updated Salesforce Marketing Cloud Engagement allows users to reflect their brands and extend digital experiences across customer touchpoints, as well as create environments that are an interactive extension of a brand.

I've used Experience Cloud in several workspaces for mainly the same reasons - it allows us to give customers more power over their own day-to-day operations in a convenient and easy way. We can control security easily with permission sets and sharing groups. This allows us to set visibility so that only an agent or someone in their specific agency can see the customers they manage, and we can tailor the reporting by making things visible only to certain audiences on the website. (If you are a direct agent you might see a report versus just someone who supports your business but doesn't sell directly). We can provide them resources to learn and grow on their own by customizing the knowledge articles on our site, and at certain times of year we can make announcements really prominent on the home page. We can lessen the workload on our customer service teams by incorporating a chatbot that can answer basic questions, and can update our knowledge base constantly so that when someone searches, it pops up relevant resources so they can hopefully figure it out before having to enter in a case for our customer service reps.
  • Security settings
  • Flexible ways to let customers reach customer service teams
  • Easy to set up custom actions related to company's internal processes
  • More options for layouts
  • Easier ways to customize the look of it
  • More documentation on best practices
Well suited for companies that have partners or end users that like to self-service. Easy to publish content and knowledge articles for them to learn if they are new, and to post announcements and important updates on the homepage so they don't miss anything. It's hard to customize it to look like your main website unless you have resources that can write code. The templates have some flexibility in how you can lay things out, but you're really limited unless you go beyond the out of the box templates or have people on the team that can put together custom components for you.

  • We now have less than 10 internal staff because customers can do a lot of self-service
  • We can hand off publishing of content to marketing, lessening workload on admins
  • Seamless integration by SSO from main website

Salesforce App Cloud is being used predominantly within Marketing and Sales. It is our single source of truth for all prospect engagements and customer management. As a sales rep, I rely on Salesforce daily to keep track of tasks relating to my accounts and to measure/improve my performance week to week.
  • Visualizes the performance of a team
  • Tracks all customer/prospect engagements
  • Enables easy communication between departments on the statuses of clients
  • Reporting functionality has quite a learning curve to set up
  • Sometimes SO many features that I'm overwhelmed and miss out on relevant ones
  • Can be a burden to update at times
In any instance where you're selling into large accounts where several stakeholders exist, Salesforce App Cloud is well suited. Any kind of enterprise business would benefit. If it's a very transactional business or small brick & mortar store where ongoing relationships aren't nearly as critical, it wouldn't be as relevant. You could likely get by with a lighter weight CRM.

  • Salesforce has increased revenues dramatically
  • Gotten sales and marketing much more aligned on initiatives
  • Given us a baseline of performance that has helped us improve
We're loving Salesforce App Cloud for our single source of truth. We're using a couple of similar products that are more equipped for dialing functionality or auto emailing. But Salesforce App Cloud has been the most robust in terms of integrating with the other apps we're using and being flexible to our changing initiatives.
