What do you like best about Salesforce Service Cloud?

Salesforce Service Cloud is a well known brand in the Software as a Service (SaaS) industry. Having a good reputation, our Quality Team is naturaly drawn to it for it's simplicity, ease of navigation, and general ease of use. The software experience within the platform is user friendly and there are new features in 2024 such as AI automation and AI bots, which are exciting for our end users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Salesforce Service Cloud?

Salesforce Service Cloud is a very good platform, but requires a lot of add-ons for what I would have considered basic functionality, such as quote formatting. All of these add-ons are often all priced per user, so costs quickly rise depending on the number of users that you have on the Salesforce Platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Salesforce Service Cloud excels in Omni-Channel routing, AI-powered automation, and seamless integrations with tools like Intercom and WhatsApp. Its case management, knowledge base, and real-time analytics enhance efficiency, while customization and scalability make it ideal for growing support teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Salesforce Service Cloud?

Salesforce Service Cloud is powerful but complex, requiring heavy setup and admin expertise. High costs, clunky UI, and performance issues can be drawbacks, and advanced automation often needs Flow or Apex. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Salesforce Service Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

Salesforce Service Cloud centralizes support, automates workflows, and streamlines case management, helping us resolve issues faster and improve customer experience. Its Omni-Channel and integrations keep everything connected and efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Salesforce Service Cloud?

The company's use of the Service Cloud platform for customer service has been very positive. With an easy-to-use solution, users with little or no previous experience in CRM learned and became familiar with the system quickly, extracting and generating value. We realized that scalability is a strong point, starting the operation with a small team and managing to increase the number of users subsequently, without major difficulties.

The tool's rapid deployment also stands out as a strong point, allowing selected departments to migrate from an email-only service model to a case management solution. This change allowed the use of automated workflows (Flows), streamlining routine tasks (Approval Proccess and Case Routing) and increasing team efficiency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Salesforce Service Cloud?

The large volume of options and functionalities could be seen as a point of concern and, in certain cases, an obstacle to the rapid adoption of the system. However, the available documentation and the help of Trailblazer allow us to easily overcome this challenge, maintaining an efficient learning curve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Salesforce Service Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

Before implementing Service Cloud, we served customers primarily via email. There were issues related to the lack of centralized service, the absence of a broad and clear view of the status of open requests and which ones should be prioritized, which hindered meeting deadlines and customer satisfaction.

In terms of team management, there were no easy ways to monitor team performance. Working solely via email hindered the analytical view of metrics such as average response time and made it difficult to identify bottlenecks or opportunities for improvement.

By implementing the tool in selected departments, we were able to migrate to the case management model, in which interactions with customers are centralized in Service Cloud and tracked transparently. We implemented automated tasks using flows, approval processes and case routing routines that help employees perform their work, reducing the time to resolution and allowing them to focus on what is a priority. In addition, we now have detailed reports on team performance, delivering valuable insights to continually improve service quality and ensure customer satisfaction.

What do you like best about Salesforce Service Cloud?

In my experience, Salesforce helps me maintain my students' portfolio into one big file. This, in turn, helps me manage data as I can see who is getting better or who needs help at a glance. It helps me maintain accurate student records for all my students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Salesforce Service Cloud?

Salesforce tends to be severly lacking in its graphics and features. Sometimes, as I am using it, the server is unavailable and crashes. Also, it can be kind of tricky to add more students. It takes longer than I would like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Salesforce Service Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

Salesforce helps me with the reality of managing multiple students' files and document what interventions I am actively taking with students. It is a one stop shop as it helps with document organization and integration of key steps for student progress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Salesforce Service Cloud?

We were able to use it to create what I'd characterize as a 'basic' ticket workflow in a few weeks using licensing we essentially already had. Support is responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Salesforce Service Cloud?

Like most things trying to be all things to all people, it basically requires you to build everything yourself from whole cloth. You want to remind a client they have an open case every few days? Better be ready to work with modulos and possibly some code. Want a case to reopen when someone replies to it? That's going to be a multistep process to arrange. In many places, if you'd like an email letting you know a ticket has an update; that's going to be a template, an alert, and a flow at minimum; other ticketing systems that'd be a tick box 'notify agent on ticket update' sort of option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Salesforce Service Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed a ticketing system. While salesforce has been rough and time consuming it was at least something we already had licensing for our agents to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Salesforce Service Cloud?

One of my main reasons to use salesforce is the ability to create my own reports from scratch or use an existing report and editing to fit my requirements exactly. It lets me creates conecctions between lenders, dealershis and customers, so when a case is created, I can see all the players involved at a glance! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Salesforce Service Cloud?

I have used salesforce in 2 separate companies, on my previous one, we used salesforce to authorise payments and refunds and when a user was not available, the escalation or redirection was clunky, it would not quite go to the right person or the right person would receive, but was not able to authorise. But, this was at the begining, so it might have been a permissions issue that got resolved later. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Salesforce Service Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

One of the higlights of the platform is the fact that I can produce very comprehensive overviews on the complaints department, not only identifying trends with agents, suppliers or customers, but also reports on a bigger picture, based on time of the year and the ability to forecast, to certain extent, the volume of issues we will be dealing with.

The major pain are was ease to reghistering Service support requests and the need to track those.

What do you like best about Salesforce Service Cloud?

From a management standpoint, I sincerely like the fact that we can customize just about every aspect of the format of accounts and opportunities. Being able to take these custom fields and carve our reports specific to my needs has made my life much easier when it comes to understanding the effectiveness of our team.

Additionally, leveraging the extensive integrations into our other tools have made our salesforce instance usable daily and simplified our tools and training of the implementation across our team. If you ever run into an issue, the customer support is pretty top-notch as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Salesforce Service Cloud?

Pricing can get up there depending on the add-ons you opt to use, such as the AI functionality. The default formatting of the cases leaves much to be desired, but with some determination, this format can be configured as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Streamlining all of our client facing communications and leveraging cases allows us to stay organized and understand areas of improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
