Salesforce Data Cloud Developer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Unified customer insights have reduced redundant communications and improved campaign targeting
Every function in Data Cloud has its unique purpose, but Calculated Insight is one of the strongest functions that I believe is very useful. I can accomplish everything, including customization, using Calculated Insight. If a client uses Data Cloud, they can save time and most importantly, they can save budget because I generate the target audience for marketing campaigns using unification. Redundant email or communication never happens due to the unified profiles, which helps businesses save their marketing budget and indirectly increase revenue. That is one of the most important benefits. Technically, there are many benefits, but in terms of business revenue, that is the most crucial part.
Dhivakar I - PeerSpot reviewer

Have faced persistent configuration issues and performance delays that slow down large workflows
From a developer's perspective, it could be more open for programming language configurations. It is currently restricted to Groovy scripting. While UI and UX designs are open to JavaScript configurations, there are restrictions on certain functions that can be used. The solution could be enhanced to better serve customers when dealing with complex programs. The customer's websites face issues with loading properly, and response time gets longer when implementing larger workflows. This could be improved to achieve lower response times even with larger workflows involving multiple system integrations and complex architecture. The agent decay capabilities need improvement in future releases. Currently, there are some agent decay configurations available for developers to implement, but this area needs enhancement. Performance issues exist in the Sandbox area. The Sandbox is a trial area for configurations, but if work continues for a long time without publishing, it tends to get corrupted, requiring deletion and rework from the ground up. This has caused significant rework and effort multiple times. Technical support can be challenging to work with. When facing product-related issues or configuration problems, the support experience varies. Sometimes the technical support is knowledgeable and helpful, but often they redirect problems elsewhere and cause delays in resolution.
