Pros
"The queue management of the solution is its most valuable aspect.""It was pretty easy to deploy.""When compared to Siebel, the Salesforce Platform is easier to use.""The stability has been great.""Most of the apps allow you to try out the product before buying it. The trial period depends on the product and varies from a week to 30 days.""It is very user-friendly, and intuitive, it will lead you and take you to the next steps.""We use this solution to track customer activities, opportunities and contact information.""It is an easy product to use and does great things for our company.

More Salesforce Platform Pros →

"Technical support from Jelastic is very good.""The dynamic vertical scaling is a unique feature.""The solution is scalable, and that is what we are looking at. There is no learning curve as we have not done much research.""The control is valuable. It's really easy to use and you have good control of your solutions.""The advanced level of production-ready Docker hosting, one-click application deployment, and the truly flexible pricing."

More Virtuozzo Application Platform Pros →

Cons
"Its documentation and price should be better.""The solution offers upgrades at a slower pace. The solution needs to keep up with competitors.""Reporting could be better. Reporting is Excel-based, and it has sucked since the inception of the company. That's why I was excited about the fact of them bringing MuleSoft into the fold and Tableau.""The reporting for Salesforce could be approved. It is a manual process and it would be useful to have a guide or videos on how to generate reports or any other cool things that you could do with the platform.""If you have resellers or distributors, you just need to figure out a way to set up the system in the backend. Since every company is different, it takes a little bit of time to figure that out.""They have some limitations as a cloud solution.""The biggest challenge we had was the cost and the licensing.""The reporting functionality is not very intuitive."

More Salesforce Platform Cons →

"The security layers also need to be improved because there is no clear layer or tier of security in the solution.""Lacks better integration into enterprise storage products.""The backup functionality needs to be improved.""For now, some customers are requesting support of Docker containers for Windows.""The backup features need improvement, or rather it should be added, as I could not find it."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Costly, but it is the top product in SaaS/PaaS. Pricing is more for large to enterprise level companies."
  • "Pricing and license differ and depend on how much license you are purchasing from them."
  • "It is an expensive program."
  • "The licensing is per user per month, which we took out a contract on a long time back. It's really an okay price for what solutions are available and for how many features and what kind of functionality you get."
  • "The solution is a bit expensive."
  • "It is expensive. Licensing is on an annual basis."
  • "It is quite expensive. Its developers come at a premium cost, which makes it expensive."
  • "It is expensive."
  • More Salesforce Platform Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Pricing for providers is revenue-shared based. Providers should invest in hardware to set up the Jelastic cluster."
  • "I would rate the cost 3 out of 5. There are additional costs other than licensing fees."
