About Salesforce

We’re Salesforce, the Customer Company, inspiring the future of business with AI+ Data +CRM. Leading with our core values, we help companies across every industry blaze new trails and connect with customers in a whole new way. And, we empower you to be a Trailblazer, too — driving your performance and career growth, charting new paths, and improving the state of the world. If you believe in business as the greatest platform for change and in companies doing well and doing good – you’ve come to the right place.

Salesforce Service Cloud is redefining how businesses engage with customers, and connecting them in whole new ways. Whether it’s a website or app experience, a private message, a call, an email or a WhatsApp conversation, customers expect more. More self service, more personalization and more delight. Businesses are also evolving their ability to automate such engagements intelligently and at scale, with copilots for more common place questions and rich agent experiences for high value engagement. This new era of service will cross departmental boundaries, from the front office to the back office, and support unified journeys with marketing, sales and commerce. All while augmenting every interaction with intelligent signals, call drivers and CX, and resolution and revenue opportunities. Salesforce is bringing this vision to reality through our best of breed offerings like Case and Knowledge Management, Digital Engagement, Copilot for Consumers, Omni-Routing, Service Cloud Voice and Service Einstein, all powered by the Service Cloud platform.
