  • Salesforce is by far the most popular CRM tool for sales, support, and marketing teams worldwide. But what exactly is a CRM and why do practically all companies rely on one? ...And what is it about Salesforce that makes it so dominant in the industry?

    Thank you so much for this!!!! After trying to explain Salesforce to a few folks in my family asking what I actually do for a job, this was absolutely the best way to help them get it! Subscribed.

    Before watching this video i have a doubt that if i used to learn this technology then what i have to learn after few years?But surprisingly i have the answer(from this video) that salesforce will be out there for the next 10 years as there is no strong competitor next to salesforce.

    Thank you for this explanation on salesforce. Because I only have heard of salesforce as being a CRM as the company I worked was using it in 07 on the sales side. I’ve been researching careers. I can transition into inttect, and I kept hearing people mention salesforce. My cousin is also a software engineer, and works in salesforce as well or maybe he works for salesforce. But I had to get more information since I keep hearing salesforce continuously.

    Salesforce is like RDBMS, but running on cloud with additional bells and whistles, sleek UI and code abstraction for more user friendly experience.
