All You Need to Know About Salesforce Experience Cloud

In April 2021, Salesforce decided to change its Community Cloud for a more modern service. The need to move over to the digital world has never been more imperative than in the current pandemic situation. Many companies have had to re-adapt their workflows, so Salesforce built an exciting alternative. This is how Salesforce Experience Cloud was born, a platform that promotes the creation of connected digital experiences to manage the entire customer journey in your company. If you still aren’t familiar with this service, this post will help clear up any doubts you may have.

What is Salesforce Experience Cloud?

Salesforce Experience Cloud is a platform integrated into Salesforce that allows you to build online communities and establish a point of contact with customers, partners or employees. In other words, with Experience Cloud your company can establish a personalized corporate virtual space according to the company style. It also offers the possibility of digitizing business processes in line with today’s contactless alternatives.

This has been achieved with the combination of features such as Experience Builder, Salesforce CMS, Mobile Publisher, and Salesforce suite of web applications. Through these, companies can easily create and deliver personalized content, websites, portals, mobile applications, and storefronts.

"Excellent Consultants. During the training I received by the SkyPlanner team, I was lucky to better understand the powerful capabilities of Salesforce.com. They were very effective, straight-to-the-point, and with a solid knowledge of the CRM and the Force.com platform. Definitively they showed us how to streamline the business process within our company. Great group of people spreading valuable knowledge to make businesses grow. I highly recommend them."

Ramiro Allen — Chief Software Engineer @ TurboPay Limited

"Excellent partner! We have been working with SkyPlanner for almost one year now. It has been a pleasure working with their team. If it wasn't for them we would have not been able to go-live with our platform when we did. They understood our needs and were not only able to execute but guide us in our decisions. We continue using them for our on-going projects. They have a deep understanding of the overall platform. Their team is always ready, willing and able to help."

Ivan de Moya — VP Innovation Technology @ SunStreet

"SkyPlanner was professional, creative, reliable and extremely accommodating. From the onset of the project, it was clear that we had found the right partner. Our project was complex and every time we hit a roadblock, SkyPlanner was helpful in identifying and implementing a solution. Jorge Fernandez [SkyPlanner's Co-Founder & Managing Director] was our primary contact and we cannot say enough about what an asset he was in bringing our project to resolution."

Ryan Borcherds — Marketing @ Deliver Lean

"On time, on budget, great quality on every project. Whenever I get asked to recommend a Salesforce.com partner, I do not hesitate on my reply: Go with SkyPlanner. I had the privilege to have worked with many teams over the years, none have brought to the table the enthusiasm the SkyPlanner team has. This combined with their professionalism and expertise are the reasons I ONLY recommend one partner: SkyPlanner. In every project (and we have done many) they have consistently delivered on time and on budget with significantly superior quality."

Juan Meza — Strategic Business Development Director @ Sony Electronics Inc.

"Outstanding Service! Happy to have them as our partner! SkyPlanner is by far the most experienced and reliable Salesforce partner. We almost gave up on Salesforce thanks to our previous partner, fortunately we found SkyPlanner and they came to the rescue! They took their time to understand our needs and complexity of our organization. Highly talented, professional and dedicated team. I cannot stress enough how happy we are to have them as our partner and we look forward to continue building our relationship."
