Overall Satisfaction with Salesforce CMS
Using Salesforce as a CRM to manage leads and opportunities. For my team, we use it to manage our current pipeline, the leads coming through interested in our product and ensure we aren't letting leads fall through the cracks. Since there are several sales teams in our organization, we use Salesforce as a way to manage who's doing what across the organization.
- Manages conflicts between sales teams.
- Keeps track of call/contact history.
- One place for all sorts of information.
- Salesforce takes forever to load a page.
- Lot of awkwardness when updating records. It won't let updates be made if something changed on the back-end while you were working on a record.
- Easier way to review and develop reports.
- It helps us to keep track of any potential conflicts between sales organizations.
- It allows us to have robust reporting for every sales team and the overall organization.
- It gives us a solid platform for our day-to-day work rather than using multiple software.
Salesforce is the connecting tissue between all these other softwares. Each of them connects to Salesforce and allows us to use the other platforms' main features while keeping everything in Salesforce, specifically contact information and history. It's automated for the most part so we aren't spending a lot of time manually updating records and tracking conversations. Every little minute counts at work so having these automations allows me to focus on the bread-and-butter of my work.
