It's a CRM - kind of like a digital rolodex that tracks all sales and customer-related information.

CRM is essential tool for complex B2B sales orgs, but holy crap SALESFORCE is the worst tool I've come across for this

As I said, a CRM is an essential piece of software for a sales organization. It's the backbone. Salesforce is just a pile of dung.

It's good for tracking and marketing teams but gets expensive quickly

The new saas bare bones ones are so much better and make you realize crm is the biggest FLAME in business

85% of what's needed can be tracked in Google sheets still

DING! Google sheets / Excel works for small business, but anything over say - 500 prospects or customers requires more sophistication.

We use Salesforce (hence the thread)

Salesforce has a very robust API, which is a huge selling point and helps position the product as the "spoke" in the technology wheel of an organization. You can connect virtually any other software to Salesforce.

Part of my job includes CRM consulting. FOr anything under 500 records, I just tell clients they can use Excel.

Salesforce is so much more than a CRM. It's a powerful cloud based platform you can use to build multiple applications to meet your business needs and interface with external parties. I would say that Salesforce at my organization is not just part of our cloud strategy, it is part of our DIGITAL strategy.
