## Reviews

### "Seamless Platform" — 5.0/5

> **Chelsea** | *12 June 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like how at both places I have used Salesforce, it is so customisable and adaptable to the organisational needs, it has customer data, sales, marketing but also a strong dashboard and pipeline tracker.
> 
> **Cons**: It can be tricky as there is so much room for customisation, sometimes features get lost and can be tricky to learn without a good trainer.
> 
> Salesforce has been a great platform for hosting our customer relationship data and running reports, we have found it tricky to integrate well and have a lack of great trainers to really push it to its potential. I know it can work as a seamless platform that integrates with emails and across all departments.

### "All in one data capture and collaboration tool" — 4.0/5

> **Rakesh** | *27 November 2024* | Mining & Metals | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to view, filter cases and update accordingly. Automatically sends email when changes are made. Can track inventory, issues, cases, business opportunities all in one place.
> 
> **Cons**: Heavy platform for some simple tasks. Also would be better if layout is simplified.
> 
> All in one data capture tool to collaborate between teams and regions in an organization.

-----

### "Great platform for information sharing" — 4.0/5

> **Jun** | *27 December 2024* | Facilities Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Outlook plug in was one of the best features by far, live updates instead of having to refresh browser
> 
> **Cons**: navigating the tabs and pages (individually having to close each tab)
> 
> Great resource for compiling and sharing information

-----

### "Salesforce for a growing nonprofit" — 5.0/5

> **Peter** | *10 July 2025* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: When my team asks if Salesforce can do it the answer is always YES\! Salesforce is by far the most versatile tool we have in our technology stack\!
> 
> **Cons**: The cost to maintain and continue to develop Salesforce is not insignificant, you definitely need to budget well and make sure you are willing to make the investment\! Don't go halfway, always go all in\!
> 
> Our experience with Salesforce as been great\! We replaced several aging and otherwise poorly built systems with Salesforce as a single unified platform to run our nonprofit organization. It's defiantly been a huge part of enabling growth for our organization\!

-----

### "End User Experience" — 5.0/5

> **Ira** | *19 July 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Web interface, ease of access, feels like from any device. No need to be in an office, great for traveling to client onsite and connecting.
> 
> **Cons**: The product allows for ease of building custom reports, connecting third party applications, allows for scaling and easy to learn. Difficult to find a negative.
