"Its stability, performance, and usability are most valuable."
"We use this solution to track customer activities, opportunities and contact information."
"I love the report building that is available."
"he solution has improved over the years and the inputting of opportunity information is done a lot better and the GUI is good. The ability to customize dashboards and other elements was useful, we were able to move things around, for example, the forecasts. Most of the cells and input places were set, but we can customize the view and what we were looking at, such as on a daily, or weekly basis."
"Salesforce is a phenomenal application. It's very diverse."
"Third-party integration -- they are working on it and I find their brand-new still-in-beta Webhooks very promising."
"Unfortunately, there is still no new report formatting available natively, and would still require 3rd party developers to help with that. ."
"The dashboard is not organized."

"The reporting needs improvement and the dashboard could have more components added."
"It would be better if they can add more from the pricing and functionality perspective. It is very expensive. I would be more than happy if they drop the prices. From the licensing perspective, if they can add more functionality, I would be more than happy."
"Integration needs improvement."
"Salesforce is incredibly slow. It was difficult to run live sales calls and leveraging Salesforce at the same time."
