Integration processes improve but scripting requires effort
The updates, pricing part, and upgrades to the products are some of the most valuable features with the Salesforce Platform.With the Salesforce Platform, I have minimal experience of approximately one and a half years. I get minimal exposure, once every three or two months, especially during holidays. The Salesforce Platform is connected to the cloud, which is beneficial. When it is integrated with different tools such as Microsoft BI Analytics, it helps us analyze much better. Currently, the integration itself is tricky as we have to use extensive scripting. It should be more of a plug-in and use solution. That is the only issue I see, but otherwise, I appreciate it.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The data table that helps in converting a single script to multiple test cases is very helpful."
"The best thing is that a person without knowledge about the program can easily understand what happened in our testing process."
"Using HipTest makes the testing process easy and its support for Behavior Driven Development helps align all the team members, whether technical or non-technical."
"The most valuable feature of CucumberStudio is its use of action words, which allows me to avoid writing test cases from scratch for the most common scenarios."
"Integration with automation frameworks, keywords, and tags allows for saving time writing test cases and implementing automation."
"The solution is stable."
"Hiptest is a great test management tool for agile teams."
"The URL is very useful, and it has a very good UI for deploying information of the scenarios created."
"The activities, opportunities, follow-up of the opportunities, and business tracking are valuable features. It provides everything that we need. It works pretty well."
"The most valuable aspect is that all data is stored in one place, making it easy to find what is needed and to report on it."
"We have hundreds of users all across our company, it is being used extensively in our organization, and that's how we run our sales here."
"The solution is highly scalable, as a company can easily scale if they need to and it effectively expands to meet your needs."
"I like using the reports feature, but also the fact that we are able to have a smooth process when it comes to leads and opportunities."
"The customization is good, you can set it up and do whatever you wanted with it."
"Salesforce has helped us customizing the system as per business user needs."
"Salesforce encourages independent app development and what this simply does is, it extends the Salesforce functionality."
 

Cons

"The reporting aspect can be improved."
"More tutorials and examples."
"Copy-pasting something directly from JIRA requires too much modification and formatting."
"Support with In-App chat is great. However, it would be awesome to have real time support also for PT timezone."
"CucumberStudio's API integration could be improved both in terms of reliability and design."
"I think it would be better if we could also do the reporting with CucumberStudio."
"The reporting and metrics can be improved. E.g.: If we wanted to have metrics across all projects."
"I would like to see better customer support."
"Getting reports in Salesforce is sometimes a little bit difficult. You need to do a lot of things to get detailed reports. This feature can be improved. Its price can also be improved. It is currently expensive."
"It could have a lot more customization options in terms of fonts and reports. There should be an even lighter version with just two or three fields. It could be a bit more light if the field guys want to use it on a mobile phone on the road. For deploying it for CRM, maybe we can have our customer database, project funnels, and projects to help us in managing our supply chain business."
"An improved UX may be helpful in the solution's next release."
"Technical support could be a bit faster."
"It is quite expensive. Its developers come at a premium cost, which makes it expensive."
"With Salesforce, I do feel that I'm doing a lot of repetitive tasks."
"There is a considerable effort required to load the data, involving processes like XML connections."
"There needs to be more documentation."
