Common Salesforce Implementation Challenges

First of all, it is essential to understand what your company's needs are when implementing Salesforce.

This will allow you to set realistic goals and measurable targets.

Then, challenges arise. We have listed the main ones below, suggesting how to overcome them during the implementation process.

Lack of clear goals and objectives

Many companies begin their migration to Salesforce without adopting clear goals and objectives. This makes it harder to understand which strategies are being adopted well and which ones need adjustments.

It is worth emphasizing: set specific and measurable objectives, always in accordance with the specificities of your company and your market.

Inadequate training and adoption

It is common to see mid-sized companies implementing Salesforce without investing in adequate training for their teams.

Continuous training programs and workshops are essential to take advantage of all the resources available on the platform.

If you prefer, having a team of professionals specialized in Salesforce, such as the able.digital team, is also a good option.

After all, this way you can have your team focus only on their activities, while we work on optimizing your products and services on this platform.

Complications in data migration

Without detailed planning and the use of specific migration tools, it becomes more difficult to migrate old data to Salesforce.

It is not an easy task, but you can count on those who understand the subject, since data migration and management with greater expertise increases the chances of achieving the desired results.

Customization and integration obstacles

When you work with experts, you avoid the risk of having difficulties customizing and integrating Salesforce with other systems.

Here at able.digital, we use APIs and integration tools to facilitate this process, thus preventing this challenge from making you afraid of implementing Salesforce in its entirety.

Resistance to change

Finally, it is common to see employees who are afraid and resistant to adopting new technologies, such as Salesforce.

The ideal is to involve your entire team in the implementation process, communicating the benefits clearly and objectively.

If this is the case, it may be necessary to recruit talent with Salesforce experience. At able.talent, we recruit the best professionals in the market, always according to the needs of each business.
