Jonny Katz - PeerSpot reviewer
VP of Business Operations at PeerSpot
Uses data-driven insights to improve workflows and highlights a need for simpler automation tools
Salesforce Sales Cloud can be improved in several areas. First, the UI is an area for enhancement. Even though they've launched Lightning, it's clunky at times with page load speeds. It also needs to be made extremely more user-friendly. For new people using Salesforce Sales Cloud, there is a steep learning curve. Additionally, giving non-admins the ability to make changes on the fly is something that I feel is necessary. Currently with Salesforce Sales Cloud, you need to have a consultant. It's hard to build the flows or workflows. Making it easier for that end-user who's not so technically minded to help themselves is essential. I choose seven out of ten because I think you need a consultant or a consulting company to help you build it out. Certain changes should be made much easier and more user-friendly where an admin can do it. The automation processes need to be much simpler. If you're looking at other tools out there, for example SalesLoft or HubSpot, it's much easier to build those workflows and do automation.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It can be used for recruiting, e-marketing, and information marketing, and is excellent if you already have a following or database and are looking to systemetize, integrate, and orchestrate communication to your clients."
"We are currently implementing this tool and have high hopes for how it will drive drive lead generation and management."
"The marketing and sales automation aspects of Infusionsoft have proved very useful; now we're able to see exactly where our leads and conversions are coming from, and which campaigns are actually working."
"In terms of the return on that investment, a non profit that uses the system well should be able to raise more money with the data and time savings provided."
"The ability to work on it from anywhere is most valuable. All you need is a computer, a browser, and an internet connection to access your instance. It can be accessed from anywhere, which is pretty cool and user-friendly."
"Salesforce Sales Cloud is very user-friendly, and simple to create dashboards and extract the reports, and it integrates well with other applications."
"We have definitely seen reduced time to delivery and increased sales as we've experienced improved efficiency and cost savings."
"The workflow capability makes it possible to automate labour intensive tasks such as sending standard emails at pre-defined points within business processes."
"Our year on year growth would have never been possible without Salesforce."
"The solution is easy to use."
"On the high level, it's all about managing the clients, managing the opportunities around those clients, managing the tasks, calls, activities, all those things."
 

Cons

"Fluent email campaign and shopping experience design. Even for the tech savvy, it takes a very logical mind to storyboard out the scenarios and to program it on the back-end."
"The CRM area isn't exactly robust, which isn't a problem for us as we pair Infusionsoft with vTiger to handle our CRM and sales/marketing automation needs."
"Would love to see the option to create required fields on the contact records."
"One area where the solution could improve is with handling feature requests."
"There are things that could be improved with respect to file sharing. There is a limited file size."
"There are also certain restrictions on the reports in terms of the number of records. Ideally, that should be removed."
"With the solution being very vast, they need to prioritize features."
"I need to do a lot of customization to implement an ERP solution for an energy and utilities client versus a BFS client. Salesforce should look at the common customizations each client wants and see how much of that can be standardized into industry-specific specific solutions. That would speed up implementation, so we don't need to go through the same steps a hundred times. Salesforce could do it once and put it out for the rest of the clients to use it."
"The mobile application for Salesforce.com is somewhat lacking. I also at times am frustrated by the response time as I am logging activities in the system."
"Compared to other CRM solutions, Salesforce is expensive. It is more affordable for enterprise users than for small businesses."
"I would love Salesforce to keep on committing and building out what they call flows. It's their point-and-click version of coding. You don't have to be a coder to create essentially what a developer would have to normally, which is a great feature, but it could still be improved upon."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The price of the Salesforce Sales Cloud is expensive. We pay monthly for the solution but we are billed quarterly."
"The main issue is the price. Because it's SaaS, you will have to pay on a monthly or yearly basis."
"The subscription is on a monthly basis."
"The price is fair."
"Being license based, the license varies by type. The pricing is considered average."
"The price of Salesforce Sales Cloud could be reduced. It is expensive."
"There is a license required to use this solution and the price is expensive. It could be reduced."
"Price-wise, the product does not fall under the category of cheaply priced products."
