Salesforce Experience Cloud

Formerly Salesforce Community Cloud

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.

Community Cloud is being utilized as an internal employee intranet at my current organization. 12 different companies under one parent umbrella are able to access the Intranet, see data specific to them (alerts, announcements, volunteer events, knowledge articles, etc.), and communicate amongst each other. We have a team directory available with photos for everyone. We also have a streamlined ticketing system so each division can submit tickets based on their company.

Salesforce Experience Cloud is used to support our long-term care pharmacy operations. Client facilities are able to securely access the portal to obtain on-demand access to clinical reports, financial reports, compliance documents, general policies & procedures, and even quality metrics - such as the amount of time that our consultant pharmacists spend reviewing patient charts within each building. Implementing the Experience Cloud has given our customers the ability to access the data they need when it is needed by them. In some cases, regulatory surveyors request historical data and this previously resulted in a series of frantic phone calls to our call center in order to try and obtain the requested information, then distribute that by encrypted email. Now our customers simply access the secure portal and very rapidly access the needed data without spending time on phone calls and emails.

Salesforce Experience Cloud (formerly Salesforce Community Cloud) is being used for a few departments. It addresses the business problem of needing a digital environment for employees to share content. It addresses the need for an intranet for staff to share content related to a particular service. Salesforce Experience Cloud (formerly Salesforce Community Cloud) is a good option for organizations that have implemented Salesforce for CRM, IT support, case management, etc. Salesforce Experience Cloud (formerly Salesforce Community Cloud) also addresses the business problem of having a solid digital presence to share content with colleagues.

[Salesforce Experience Cloud (formerly Salesforce Community Cloud)] is used by a number of companies I work with, from outside sales reps logging leads and sales deals. To customer service portals for customer to submit support tickets, to also use cases of being a portal for franchisee companies to get knowledge articles and support from the parent organization.
