A rigid product that is hard to customize, has no mobile app, and is rarely updated by the vendor
There is no mobile application. The product is unmoving, as there is no obvious development or enhancements being made. When we are trying to compete in a market we need an updated product. The product is not easily customizable and we have to depend on the reseller for that. It's a rigid product. There are no reports available.

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

"Stability-wise, it is working fine with no technical faults."
"The Salesforce Sales Cloud platform stands out from other products."
"You can have non-sales and marketing personnel using Chatter without driving up licensing cost."
"The solution can scale massively. I've been quite impressed."
"Sales Cloud really helps to point out different numbers for our company in terms of what converts or what doesn't."
"Salesforce Sales Cloud is used for selling, tracking leads, verifying customer information, scheduling appointments, visiting customers, and costing leads."
"The performance is good, and it is easy to use."
"Overall, I would recommend Salesforce, as it's an industry leader and integrates well across multiple platforms."
"Salesforce Sales Cloud is scalable."
 

Cons

"There are no reports available."
"My advice is not to waste time implementing this product."
"While the Salesforce version upgrades are in process, there may be some performance issues (however, Salesforce does inform users about this beforehand)."
"Sales Cloud could be improved with more training. In general, the training is very good, but you have to really seek out some good options in order to upskill yourself."
"The user interface could be more intuitive."
"The performance is sometimes slow. There is too much information and this makes it difficult to find the answers we are looking for."
"It is still relatively expensive - would like to see it a little cheaper."
"The solution is secure. However, they could always improve on security."
"Salesforce has a built-in functionality called changesets to move functionality from the sandbox and into production. That's a little dated now, and it's not very good for version control or backups."
"The price of Salesforce Sales Cloud could be reduced. It is expensive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are paying for a subscription."
"The price of the product is very high. I rate the product price a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one means low price, and ten means expensive."
"Implementation and add-ons may be additional costs."
"In terms of investment value and return of the investment, Salesforce right now is pretty good on the Western markets where the price of the employees is pretty high."
"The price of Salesforce Sales Cloud could be reduced. It is expensive."
"You need to pay for the license per user per month. For example, you need to pay $100 per user. If you have 200 users using your Salesforce, that would be multiplied by a hundred, that's $20,000 per month and a quarter million per year."
"The overall price of Salesforce Sales Cloud could be better, it is more expensive than other competitors. There is an annual license for Salesforce Sales Cloud."
"Sales Cloud is expensive."
"Sales Cloud is quite expensive."
