What is Salesforce?

Salesforce is a cloud-based CRM currently used by more than 150,000 businesses—making it the 4th largest software company in the world. Founded in 1999, Salesforce was the first cloud-based CRM. It provided an alternative to conventional desktop software that required on-site installation and regular maintenance. As a cloud-based platform, Salesforce offers increased capacity, scalability, and accessibility through any web-enabled smart device.

At its core, Salesforce provides companies with real-time analytics, customer insights, customer service functions, and contact and account management. Businesses can also tailor and extend the platform with features like AI, app-building capabilities, and off-the-shelf third-party integrations.

Salesforce also provides a secure and scalable eCommerce solution for B2C and B2B companies. Salesforce Commerce Cloud facilitates customer support, digital marketing, order management, and more. With integrated customer data and AI-functionality, the platform creates a unified customer experience across online and in-store interactions.
