Salesforce Announces Genie

San Francisco – September 20, 2022 – Salesforce (NYSE: CRM), the global leader in CRM, today unveiled Salesforce Genie, a hyperscale real-time data platform that powers the entire Salesforce Customer 360 platform. With Genie, every company can turn data into customer magic, delivering seamless, highly personalized experiences across sales, service, marketing, and commerce that continuously adapt to changing customer information and needs in real time. Today, 71% of customers expect every interaction with a business to be personalized. However, data remains siloed and duplicative across most companies. Companies on average have 976 separate applications to run their business — that’s potentially 976 versions of a single customer, leading to disconnected digital experiences. Responding to customer needs in real time is more critical than ever, but is becoming more challenging as the amount of data created, captured, replicated, and consumed each year is expected to more than double by 2026. Companies must seamlessly connect digital and real-world customer interactions in order to provide the most relevant, personalized, and compelling experiences, in every moment. A sales rep can no longer rely on in-person communication to close a large deal — reps need real-time insights about every customer, based on real-time and historical data, to act on the most relevant information in the moment, every time. A service agent runs the risk of losing a valuable customer if they lack a complete, real-time view across every touchpoint — every agent needs a source of real-time customer truth. With real-time patient data, healthcare providers can deliver proactive guidance and care recommendations.  “Genie makes every part of Customer 360 more automated, intelligent, and real time.” DAVID SCHMAIER, PRESIDENT AND CHIEF PRODUCT OFFICER, SALESFORCE “Every business leader wants to take advantage of real-time data to create compelling, personalized customer experiences — milliseconds matter in this new digital-first world,” said David Schmaier, President and Chief Product Officer, Salesforce. “That’s why we built Genie, our most significant innovation ever on the Salesforce Platform. Genie makes every part of Customer 360 more automated, intelligent, and real time.” Salesforce Genie: Unify data to build a real-time customer graph and single source of truth As the heart of real-time Customer 360, Salesforce Genie ingests and stores real-time data streams at massive scale and combines it with Salesforce transactional data. Genie includes built-in connectors that bring in data from every channel (mobile, web, APIs), legacy data through MuleSoft, and historical data from proprietary data lakes.

CDP Genie

Unlocking the Potential of Salesforce Genie (formerly known as Marketing Cloud Customer Data Platform or Salesforce CDP) The significance of data in today’s business world cannot be overstated.

Data Cloud from Salesforce

What is the data cloud in Salesforce? A hyperscale data platform built into Salesforce. Activate all your customer data across Salesforce applications with Salesforce Data Cloud, formerly known as Customer Data Platform (or CDP). Empower teams to engage customers, at every touchpoint, with relevant insights and contextual data in the flow of work. What is the benefit of Salesforce data cloud? Your company can feel confident in your customer data, and know that you’re taking the right steps to engage with your customer base across multiple channels.  The team at Tectonic can help you bring value to your wealth of customer data when you leverage Data Cloud. With Salesforce Data Cloud, automation, intelligence, real-time data, and security aren’t just goals; they make up the foundation of the platform. Data Cloud brings the power of automation, analytics, AI, data, and integration together to create a single view of the customer across any cloud. As a team of certified Salesforce experts with years working within all core and industry clouds, analytics, and customizations across all aspects of the platform, Tectonic can help you understand how Data Cloud fits into your customer experience goals, supports revenue growth, and integrates with your existing data models, data sources, and systems such as Snowflake, Tableau, Slack, and MuleSoft. By Implementing Data Cloud, we can enable you to: Are you taking advantage of SFDC Data Cloud’s customer 360 capabilities when it comes to intuitive, fast, efficient customer service? Data Cloud is the fastest growing organically built product in Salesforce’s history (Salesforce built it themselves, not via acquisitions). Data Cloud could be described as the ‘Holy Grail of CRM’, meaning that the data problem that’s existed since the infancy of CRM is now finally solvable. There are some differences between Genie and Data Cloud. Genie offers a zero-data copy architecture, meaning data can be fetched on-demand without duplicating it on the Salesforce platform. This allows for more flexibility and scalability when handling large amounts of customer data. Is Salesforce Data Cloud a data lake? Your data sitting in the data lake benefits from all of the capability of the Salesforce platform just like it does in the transactional side in Oracle. That means that Data Cloud is now not just a really good CDP, it’s now a data lake which will be used in sales and service use cases. Is Data Cloud free? At Dreamforce 2023, Salesforce announced that Data Cloud free licenses are now included for all Enterprise Edition or above customers so customers can become familiar with the new capabilities and develop use case ideas. There’s never been a better time to partner with Tectonic to explore Salesforce Data Cloud for your business. Content updated November 2023.

Salesforce Mulesoft Explained

The pivotal acquisition of MuleSoft in 2018 marked a significant achievement for Salesforce, introducing a seamless approach to connecting with any system through an extensive array of pre-built connectors. The Anypoint platform, part of MuleSoft, offers a centralized cloud-based system for managing API connections, executing integrations, and overseeing monitoring and reporting. MuleSoft with its Anypoint platform, is equipped with a broad library of connectors that facilitate integration with Mainframes, ERP systems, and SaaS applications through well-established and templated solutions. Salesforce has recently unveiled Salesforce MuleSoft Composer, a user-friendly and lightweight version designed for administrators that seamlessly integrates within Salesforce. MuleSoft provides a diverse set of tools to build automations and integrations tailored to various enterprise use cases. Its API-led connectivity approach includes three categories of APIs: MuleSoft’s integration platform enables businesses to connect applications, data, and devices, while Salesforce, a cloud-based customer relationship management (CRM) platform, focuses on enhancing customer relationships. In the integration process, MuleSoft fetches data from a third-party system, transforms x, y, z data elements, converts the data to JSON, and inserts/upserts it into Salesforce objects. Salesforce then automates further data processing on the saved data, showcasing the synergy between the two platforms in streamlining and optimizing data workflows. Mulesoft will likely be a part of your Salesforce implementation if you are using any legacy or third-party products. Contact Tectonic today to explore Mulesoft for your Salesforce org.

Slack Process Automation

Salesforce’s Slack team collaboration tool extends beyond facilitating communication across channels; it empowers users to automate routine processes seamlessly through the Workflow Builder tool. This feature, available in Slack, offers a range of tools to streamline processes both within and outside Slack, all without the need for coding. Slack process automation improves the power and usage of the collaboration tool. The versatility of workflows is vast, accommodating simple to complex processes that can connect with various apps and services, not limited to Slack and Salesforce alone. With over 2,400 apps in the Slack App Directory, integration possibilities are extensive. Should a pre-built app fall short, customization options allow tailoring to specific business needs without the necessity for coding expertise. Building a workflow primarily requires identifying routine business processes suitable for automation, whether through app installation or custom Workflow Builder creation. The absence of coding prerequisites makes this accessible to a broader audience. Workflow Builder considers any series of sequential, repeatable tasks aimed at achieving a specific goal as a viable process for automation. Since Salesforce’s acquisition of Slack in 2021, the platform has become a pivotal collaboration tool within and beyond the Salesforce ecosystem. Its popularity has surged, particularly in remote-based work environments, where integrations with various applications synchronize data into Slack, providing a single, accurate source accessible to all team members. This, coupled with automation features directly accessible from the Slack app, significantly reduces manual task durations. Eight highly recommended Slack automations, facilitated through pre-built templates, cover various aspects, including recruiting, lead management, deal alerts, quote-to-invoice processes, project status tracking, time tracking, support case management, and even creative applications like hue light automation. Tectonic offers expertise in custom Slack integrations with Salesforce projects. Companies can explore how Slack enhances team collaboration and process automation by connecting with us. Slack Workflows Importantly, Slack workflows extend beyond Salesforce integration, working seamlessly with other platforms such as Zapier, Centro, Google Sheets, AttendanceBot, Polly, Datadog, Fellow, Automate.io, BirthdayBot, Jira, Workstreams, ToDoBot, Workast, Simple Poll, and more. The Workflow Builder feature enables the creation of predefined triggers and steps to automate processes directly within the Slack app. Triggers can be manually selected, initiated by emoticon selections, or set to run automatically. Once triggered, the workflow’s steps unfold in the selected order, allowing the seamless execution of various tasks. Process Automation in Slack The possibilities for automation using Workflow Builder in Slack are extensive, ranging from employee onboarding, customer support, content and communication review, to sales lead and marketing campaign management, request approval processes, and beyond. Slack, in conjunction with Tectonic, stands ready to bring these envisioned automations to life for organizations seeking enhanced efficiency and collaboration.

Salesforce Integrations Explained

Introducing Salesforce Integration – Fundamental Concepts Before diving deep into more the complex aspects, let’s explore the basics of Salesforce Integrations, encompassing three key areas: integration types, integration capabilities, and integration patterns. When we talk about integration, it means to create a connection between a specific Salesforce instance and another database, third party product, or system. The connection can be inbound, outbound, or bi-directional, and you may be connecting to another database, another Salesforce instance, or another cloud-based data source. What is Integration? Salesforce Integration involves bringing together two or more systems to streamline distinct processes, enabling the efficient management of information across various business processes that span multiple systems.  Salesforce Integration is a process of connecting two or more applications. This provides both a sharing of data between systems and end user improved efficiency. Enterprise systems use many applications, many or most of which are not designed to work with one another out of the box. How many integrations does Salesforce have? Salesforce has over 3,000 integrations available on its AppExchange marketplace alone. Apart from those, you can use: low-code and no-code integrations like Coupler.io or Zapier for data automation. Why is Integration Important with Salesforce? In our digital era, enhancing efficiency and customer experience is crucial for competitiveness and user adoption. Integration ensures that systems work seamlessly together by fostering a scalable and faster collaborative environment. How do you make Salesforce even better? Integrate it with the apps you already use. From productivity to marketing to collaboration and beyond, now you can connect your Salesforce to the other tools you need to run your business. MuleSoft is Salesforce’s integration and automation technology and offers connectivity solutions for all of your apps. What is an API? API, or Application Programming Interface, facilitates communication between two applications. It enables the smooth exchange of data, ensuring processes occur without interruptions.
