Helps us with sales management of customer life cycles with good business intelligence
Our primary use case for the solution is sales management of customer life cycles. We deploy the solution on cloud The stability and ease of use are valuable. Additionally, the granularity of the tool provides a great experience because of the several variables we can manage during the process.…

Accurate branch data has driven more appointments and improved customer review management
The platform can be improved by optimizing the automated AI responses and providing different templates of responses available in the review and reputation management section. Additionally, allowing various integration types would be beneficial. Although Yext Digital Presence Platform has API integrations with 200 publishers, allowing other types of integrations such as those connected through a CDN would enhance functionality. Regarding the user interface, there are no concerns. However, with reporting, it would have been beneficial to have direct integration to Data Studio or other reporting systems where we could grab data and display it in a more friendly, visual way.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"What I found most valuable in Salesforce CRM is its reporting feature because it's extensive and it's very accurate. I also like that you can move opportunities by stages. I find that feature very important and very useful because it helps you understand where opportunities get stuck, and at what stage it is currently."
"All the business intelligence included in the tool gives more information about the cycle of the sales stage."
"The best features Yext Digital Presence Platform offers is that it is easy to navigate, it is simple to use, and I appreciate the user-friendly way that you are able to use it."
"The main benefit of using Yext Digital Presence Platform is that we no longer have to update data manually across multiple entities or social media platforms, as the process is now automated."
"For example, there is a salon that I started working with, which was generating almost 20k a month, and after I used Yext Digital Presence Platform with them, within six months they increased profit to 60k."
"Direct Listing Syncing, the Yext Knowledge Graph, and Yext Pages were the most impactful features because they improved our organic results and had a positive impact on our business."
 

Cons

"The support for Salesforce CRM was not very prompt. It took us a lot of time to receive support."
"An area for improvement in Salesforce CRM is that there's still a lot of manual input you need to make. If it could pick up things automatically from an email and auto-populate, that would make the tool better. Another area for improvement is that the Salesforce CRM connector for G-suite does not work effectively."
"The user interface can be improved."
"The platform can be improved by optimizing the automated AI responses and providing different templates of responses available in the review and reputation management section."
"I think Yext Digital Presence Platform's pricing, setup cost, and licensing could be refined better."
"One thing that could be improved is the real-time updates. Currently, when we send changes to Yext Knowledge Graph, the updates are reflected in the analytics tool with some delay, around thirty minutes to an hour."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing for Salesforce CRM is extremely expensive."
