New “Salesforce for Slack” App Will Allow Sales Professionals to Collaborate Better

Joint Customers Would Be Able To Switch Easily Between Apps

Slack is strengthening ties with Salesforce to mark a new phase in the relationship. As a result of this development, customers using both the apps will be able to switch more swiftly between the popular Cloud services.

Salesforce has been one of the earliest partners of Slack. Integration between these two service providers has made it easy for Sales executives to access critical account information with ease. As users kept growing, so did the demands for even richer integrations across both the apps. Release of the new Salesforce app for Slack brings an avenue of possibilities to the table. It includes an important update to the already existing Sales Cloud integration, in addition to a completely fresh integration with Service Cloud.
