It stores, monitors, and manages your customers’ information in a hassle-free way. It is a platform for managing your customer relationships and sales team.

All Salesforce products run entirely in the cloud so there’s no need for an IT team to set up or manage. Your employees can work from anywhere and in any device, as long as they have an internet connection.

With Salesforce, you can map out each step of your sales pipeline. In addition, it stores complete details of your prospects and customer, including customer information, chat history, internal notes, and their stage in your pipeline.

It will use transcripts to start a new customer record or will attach transcripts to existing customer records. With a transcript attached, sales representatives can customize their follow-up. This speeds up the time it takes to move qualified leads through your sales funnel.
