    Salesforce is the most widely-used customer relationship management (CRM) solution in the world. But that can be confusing to the users in some cases because Salesforce tries to be all things to all people. Depending on the kind of business your company is in, the sales cloud or service cloud might be a more suitable fit for your needs. Salesforce’s two major product offerings are the sales cloud and service cloud. The sales cloud is focused on the customer-facing side of the business, including sales representatives and customer service includes features for lead management and marketing automation. The service cloud offers features for customer service and customer support. Salesforce’s service cloud features include help desk ticketing and case management, as well as the ability to automate communications and agreements between customers and employees using the platform.
