Salesforce to me is the best sales software I ever used and I have used many in my 37 years in the copier business. The best part of salesforce is it’s not just for copier sales companies . It’s a universal system that can help any sales organization. For those of you that do not use it. Give it a try. I guarantee it will boost sales. Nothing more important in sales is to keep tract of anything and everything about your accounts and with Salesforce you can do just that . Well worth it.

I’ve been in real estate for years, running everything from wholesale to flips, and I’ve used plenty of CRMs along the way. Making the switch from Podio to Salesforce was one of the best operational decisions I’ve made. The system is clean, fast, and easy to use. The Lightning experience alone feels like stepping from an old flip house into new construction.Every process is smoother, from managing seller leads to tracking transactions. The customization options are endless, but what surprised me most is how intuitive it feels out of the box. My team picked it up fast, and we haven’t looked back.If you’re serious about scaling your business and you want a CRM that can grow with you, Salesforce is it. This app delivers exactly what high-performing teams need: clarity, speed, and power. Five stars all day.

Due to the absence of an effective feedback mechanism through the App Store, this has to be it.The app has become too latency-sensitive when trying to create a new record such that it does not function with the latency associated with the Wi-Fi in airplanes.It has long had the following problems, which I have reported in the past through other channels, but it never seems to address it: when scrolling a record, it will often get stuck not allow that scroll to continue. It seems that it must be loading something from memory, but the content of the screen is pure text, so it makes no sense for this problem to persist.

Came to Salesforce because we purchased their software which turned out to be an app on the app exchange. So all the heavy lifting was done. Page layouts, record types, custom objects with their fields…you get it. If you don’t and your new, I didn’t know the difference between an object, a case, a field, etc. you’ll get it figured out. I’ve only used the app on my iPhone not my iPad. For that device I’d used Microsoft Edge with my keyboard attached so it’s essentially a laptop. But on my phone I can get the data I want nearly 100% of the time. Yes some functionality isn’t available. But if I want a in a specific value in a field , I can probably get it. I couldn’t be happier. I came from a SaaS in our industry that made you buy their mobile version - or from an “integration partner” that the SaaS company chose, not one I necessarily wanted. That Salesforce offers it as included in my subscription is a huge value add. I don’t claim to be an engineer and like I said most of our “Salesforce” Org was set up as a part of our purchased installation. Now I customize as needed. It’s a good deal.

What a horrendous, awful application. This app is bad enough that it is often touted as the reason that people in my organization are unable to do 100% of their work from an iPad Pro - “I’d love to, but I need to use SalesForce on a consistent basis”. If SalesForce is Hugh Grant, SalesForce1 is Andie MacDowell; dragging down the entire operation, forcing constant recaptures of her dialog because she’s unable to enunciate properly, and generally making the whole process feel much more like a funeral than any of the four weddings. Let’s explore a scenario: You’re looking at a case record, and you’d like to communicate this case to your coworker. You swipe up and grab your company’s chat app to split screen - but wait, SalesForce1 doesn’t support multi tasking. That’s OK. You open up the share menu in SF1. Or rather, you try to open the share menu, only to find there IS no share menu - SF1 lacks ANY way to produce a shareable link to any record, contact or entity. You look at the case number and select it in order to copy. The cursor does not appear. You tap again. Yes, SF1 has also limited your ability to grab particular blocks of text. You’re forced to type out the case record, swapping back and forth between apps a few times to make sure that the 12-digit string is faithfully recreated. You weep softly into your Smart Keyboard and move back into your parent’s basement.

Salesforce had a pretty good mobile app. For some reason they've taken away features and now it hangs all the time. Twice last week I watched it spin when trying to retrieve a contact phone number while sitting at the gate of customer's campus with cars building up behind me. I had to go to the web version to get the number. I was pretty delighted. As far as features... logging calls used to be fire. You made your calls during prime time business hours and then logged the calls later. They were all listed there waiting for you. Now you make a call and the app switches to log-a-call mode whether you want to at that moment or not. Completely squashes my calling rhythm and takes forever. God forbid you get an incoming call in the process. Salesforce needs to have users test their app while they're on the road (duh) and maybe even include some salespeople. In the meantime, I'll keep the web version open.
