Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Salesforce Mobile is pretty unique and such a convenient tool to use. It's great to be able to send a text to also communicate with the applicant instead of always calling. Such a valuable tool to use. It has been very useful to help contact older prospects or applicants in the system. I think it's a useful tool and I think more companies should also adapt to this as well.

Pros

  • Being able to customize your message
  • Faster response in real time
  • Saving message to use for a great follow up
  • Controlling your leads

Cons

  • It's very glitchy-- some of the canned messages won't work for no reason
  • Some links don't work all the time
  • It could be easier to navigate from one report to another

Likelihood to Recommend

Salesforce Mobile is very efficient and makes sense to use. Sometimes the reports, when you click in, doesn't open in a mobile view so you can see everything on one page. It helps when you need to search names, but it is not always user-friendly and would glitch. Saved messages are important, but as stated before sometimes the messages and links provided don't work.

Hopes of mobile access to Salesforce, crashed and burned

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use it across the organization. It is used as a supplement to Salesforce Lightning.

Pros

  • Searching
  • Tasks
  • Call logging
  • Information gathering

Cons

  • It's pretty complex to use and not very straightforward as to where everything is and how to access.
  • Search function needs to be enhanced. Finding accounts in the desktop version is simple and accurate. With mobile, not so much.
  • It should be more customizable to enhance features frequently used.

Likelihood to Recommend

[In my experience,] it is only useful to search for addresses or contact information when out ot the office. I wish it had the functionality of desktop Salesforce.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Salesforce is used to track students and store their information for our Admissions Counselors. It makes it possible for the Admission counselor to keep up with different documents that students upload to apply.

Pros

  • Store student information
  • Keeps track of students

Cons

  • Report Editing
  • Links

Likelihood to Recommend

It is well suited the most for our company because when speaking with new students, we can log their information into the app. Being able to use it for the mobile app as well has been a gamechanger as well.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

The reason we use Salesforce Mobile [(formerly Salesforce1 Mobile App)] is to be connected with the organization at all times, no matter where we are. From approving opportunity requests, to validate the information that is displayed in our client's profiles, the mobile app is really useful and it allows us to make changes without having the need of bringing the laptop with you. Being a sales manager I really take advantage of it because I am constantly visiting restaurants.

Pros

  • Clear and same information as of the desk platform
  • Fast and reliable
  • Easy to use

Cons

  • Interface
  • Design
  • Functionality

Likelihood to Recommend

Being out from the office, [Salesforce Mobile (formerly Salesforce1 Mobile App)] is a supporting tool to bring all the information with you without having the need of bringing the laptop. As I said before, I am a sales manager and it is much more comfortable for me to use the mobile app instead of bringing a bag or something similar only for the laptop.

However, it wouldn't make any sense to use it in the office as you can enter into Salesforce from your computer and have a better experience with the SF product as it is much more comfortable to use. At the end it has a much larger screen than a phone or a tablet and it has many more possibilities as a whole

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

All conversations and communication with overseas sales representatives and clients are logged and tracked using Salesforce Mobile. The ability to access our company's Salesforce from remote location challenge that Salesforce Mobile solves. In society today, the greatest approach to engage with clients is through Salesforce Mobile (formerly Salesforce1 Mobile App).

Pros

  • The ability to construct lead list for various marketing channels and have our staff prioritize calls. It's simple to use, just has to be set up once, and it's safe.
  • The most important aspect of this app is that all of its features are incredible, especially the reporting capabilities and the ability to quickly input customer information.
  • The app allows sales reps to focus on opportunities while on the field. The app has a feature that allows you to set up quick action for a variety of tasks.

Cons

  • It just take a minor bit of training.
  • Although the app is expensive, the functionality it provides solves this problem.
  • If you have a low or medium-speed internet, the platform likewise incredibly poor.

Likelihood to Recommend

We can be on the go and yet have access to information, contacts, and apps using Salesforce Mobile. We may then develop meaningful insight based on the data and push behaviors to additional clients by forecasting forward and tacking notes on prospects, clients, and so on. In addition, the mobile component makes it easy to update in real-time when on the road. For Business owners and team leaders, the salesforce mobile application is an extremely helpful tool.

Great for Marketing teams to keep up with the Sales Dashboards

Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Salesforce Mobile is great to check dashboards on the go. From the Marketing perspective, I check reports and dashboards to see MQLs and SQL moving along. I also can quickly check if opportunities are correctly attributed to the lead source.

Pros

  • Dashboards
  • Reports
  • DocuSign Integration

Cons

  • Fingerprint Login
  • Search Filters

Likelihood to Recommend

It's great to check activity on the go. It's also great for team members who need to sign agreements with the electronic signature integration apps. I only use it to check things but not to actively work in the app. This is due to the high complexity of Salesforce. However, screenshots or links are shared easily with the team via Slack.

Your Saleforce Instance in the Palms of your Hands!

Rating: 9 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

My organization's sales and business development teams use the Salesforce Mobile app to actively manage leads, contacts, opportunities, and accounts on-the-go. The app is well designed and supports most of the functionality of using non-mobile desktop version of Salesforce. Often times many things happen outside of business hours. A contact might respond to an email, or you may receive a signed PO after normal work hours. The Salesforce app allows all the necessary Salesforce functionality without having to be logged in at your computer.

Pros

  • The overall user experience of the app is very good. It's intuitive and easy to navigate.
  • The app reflects the native desktop app and does not limit functionality.
  • The search feature makes it quick to look up a specific contact or opportunity.

Cons

  • The ability to upload documents to related records would be a plus. This may be possible and I am just not finding it.
  • Other than that, I think the app does a great job of mirroring our Salesforce instance.

Likelihood to Recommend

The Salesforce mobile app is well suited for larger organizations with a good-sized field force, and many opportunities in motion. It gives the sales reps and business development team the power of their entire Salesforce CRM in the palms of their hands. The user interface is easy to navigate and behaves similarly to the desktop version of Salesforce. Smaller organizations with not many opportunities in the pipeline at one time may not find the app as beneficial. The app really helps the sales team stay on top of opportunities when there's a lot going on.

It helps the field sales to move lighter, and helps you open less your computer on weekends!

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Hi!

At least in my company the sales team is very free, so it depends on the person.

In my case, I just use it for last minute things: For example, imagine is saturday night and I just got a very improtant signature, so i need to CW the opportunity in order to start the OB as soon as possible. For this case, the mobile version is very usefull as it only takes me a couple minutes and I dont have to wait a day or get my computer.

Besides that, of course i preffer the web-browser version because of the size of the screen and is easier to navegate, but for being a simpler version it does what it has to do

Pros

  • Helps sends last minute contracts, or in situ contracts
  • Help change stages of the oppos when you are OoO
  • It keeps it simple even though we all know than SF manages a lot of information

Cons

  • It could be easier to navigate from one report to another
  • It does not let me close the recent activity pop up in the oppo, and it uses more space than relevant fields, plus the stage map is cut instead of being reduce in size

Likelihood to Recommend

For field sales is very usefull as you dont longer need to move around with the computer, as the phone can manage to do the most relevant tasks

Must have for employees in the field.

  • None

Likelihood to Recommend

Salesforce Mobile is good for quick edits/additions on the go. I wouldn't use this for reporting or any large amounts of information that needs input.
