Salesforce

I wish you the worst of luck, you are an awful company that makes finnicky garbage software. In my many years as an IT professional, I have never, at any point, heard anyone say anything positive about Salesforce, ever.

What are the best alternatives for large enterprise?

[–] kyle@lemm.ee 9 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Pretty much just MS Dynamics. Or you build your own, that's common too.

There are others, Zendesk has a CRM, some use ServiceNow or Hubspot but those don't fit the same use case.

I swear dynamics is the shame shit

For which aspect? Sales force does so much that there isn’t a one product alternative. It is, however, cheaper for an enterprise to hire a team of web developers and build a custom in-house solution.

Our organization notified all they're shifting to SAP HANA from salesforce. I have no clue what any of that means.

Marketing is a very broad term, what does that mean to you?

Constant contact and twilio might meet your needs depending on what they really are.
