We saw a significant rise in the use of collaborative platforms in the last two years. These tools enabled companies to smoothly run business operations without any interruption. Allowing global teams to easily communicate & collaborate from a centralized platform.

Salesforce was quick to comprehend the future importance of collaborative platforms and in 2020, they acquired Slack. To catalyze productivity in the hybrid work environment, Salesforce introduced SlackFirst Customer 360.

President & COO of Salesforce, Bret Taylor, thinks tools like these will fundamentally revolutionize the work environment.

This is just the beginning for the Slack-First Customer 360 – which will fundamentally reshape how work gets done by connecting employees, customers, & partners and the apps they use on a single platform.

The Salesforce-Slack marriage delivers an integrated collaborative work environment. Combining the business processing power of Salesforce and the collaborative tools & apps available in Slack. Empowering businesses to automate operations and make them more focused and productive.

AI & ML are fast becoming relevant and important in almost all industries. AI-powered tools analyze historic and existing data and learn like humans – and in some cases, even better than humans.

Salesforce Einstein is one such useful tool that harnesses the power of AI to allow for better business management. It helps users analyze huge amounts of data, make relevant predictions, and provide valuable business insights. Moreover, AI & ML also help businesses automate mundane tasks and eliminate the need for human intervention – decreasing human error, increasing productivity, and saving valuable time & finances.

The future will see more autonomy with respect to managing business operations. Long-term success lies in creating the perfect harmony between machines and the manual workforce and not in considering technology as a threat to one’s profession. The sky is the limit for companies and the workforce who understand its importance.
