It is clear you need to up your game. But how? 

Your company may already be using Salesforce, but that’s not enough. Salesforce has many features to improve your business operations. But there are many limitations as well. 

To deliver the best experience to your staff and clients, you need to hire Salesforce developers. Salesforce developers can help you access Salesforce integration tools to improve your sales, marketing, and service processes.

In this article, we will cover 10 such tools. 

  1. Cloudingo to maintain sales records

Salespeople are humans. And humans make errors, especially when they are busy.

They may input inaccurate sales data or duplicate an existing Salesforce record. Although they mean no harm, these errors can drastically alter your forecasts. The errors can also complicate the process of making sales decisions.
