Breaking Down the Complexities of Salesforce Technologies: A Comprehensive Guide to Salesforce Vlocity

https://www.ivserve.com/assets/imgs/blog/blog-2/Breaking%20Down%20the%20Complexities%20of%20Salesforce%20Technologies-min.jpg

True to its name, Salesforce Vlocity adds velocity to any Salesforce Instance and speeds up operations. Most applicable for customer-centric industries, the cloud software finds wide applications in telecommunications, media and entertainment, energy and utilities, insurance and financial services, and the Government sector.

Why is Vlocity (Industries) A Sought-After Choice For Businesses?

A Complete Industry Solution

Vlocity is a comprehensive and exhaustive industry solution for end-to-end sales process and works equally well for enhancing both B2B and B2C digital customer interactions.

Enhanced Agility

Clients have reported a major reduction in

time to market,

average Handling Time, and

quote to order time,

resulting in improved agility of both marketing and sales processes. Moreover, a unified customer experience across channels inspires customer trust in the brand, which is priceless.

Single Platform for Multiple Needs

Vlocity allows users to manage quotations, policy administration, claims management, and services in a single platform and offers one version of truth to all users.

Easy-to-Use and Configure

Vlocity achieves these feats owing to some of its futuristic features built by its developers. Here’re a few of the most useful features that make it indispensable.

Omniscript

Remember the last time you went shopping online? Your journey started from searching for the desired product, scanning through the list of available options, looking for discounts/product bundles, adding them to your cart, and finally payment and checkout. Now, this customer journey has been created by someone at the backend using Omniscript in Vlocity on Salesforce. Similarly, users can create any number of business processes as guided paths using the Omniscript tool, all the while keeping customer experience at the core. And the best thing about Omniscript is its wide applicability. From a community portal to an e-commerce website, from a button click to a form submission, from websites to mobile applications, the feature can be used just about anywhere!

Data Raptor

Another feather in Vlocity’s cap, the Dataraptor tool, allows users to manage large volumes of disparate datasets without writing codes or queries (how we all hate it!). Imagine yourself as a product owner in a large telecom firm with access to customer, vendor, agents, and a large number of other datasets. Having to manage such a large volume of data can be quite a hassle. But that’s not quite so if you have the Data Raptor working in the background. The feature manages, fetches, saves, downloads, and even transforms your Salesforce data with the point and click functionality and you will be free from the trouble of writing codes or queries for the same task. And, that’s how Vlocity simplifies data management to a level that it can be adopted even by non-technical users.

Flex Cards

Flex cards allow users to build UI components and applications on the Salesforce platform and beyond. The component contains a combination of data and links to processes within a specific context based on the data source. A FlexCard is designed to loop through records and return from its data source and display the list of records in containers called cards.

Other Features

While loading Vlocity and getting Salesforce up and running is a breeze as compared to conventional methods of implementation, it still needs an experienced hand and a certified-developer. Developers can get themselves certified with one or all of the industry certifications and work on developing Vlocity solutions as certified professionals. At iVServe, we deliver managed Salesforce Implementation through our team of Salesforce developers, architects, and administrators who come with, at least, one or more of the following industry certifications:

Salesforce Certified Omnistudio Developer Credential

Salesforce Certified Industries CPQ Developer Credential

Salesforce Certified OmniStudio Consultants Credential

Using these skills and the experience gained in implementing Salesforce implementation through Vlocity for different industry verticals, our experts ensure a smooth adoption of the Salesforce instance that enables businesses to achieve their goals in reduced cost, time, and effort. If you’re still struggling to optimize and use your Salesforce instance without much headway, feel free to connect with us, and our experts will figure the way forward for you.

Salesforce velocity training

What is Vlocity (Salesforce Industries)?

Vlocity (Salesforce Industries) offers pre-built solutions on the Salesforce platform that solve the needs of particular industries. Vlocity takes these common requirements and packages them into “cloud” solutions that can be deployed to individual organizations. Any company seeks to get the maximum ROI from its Salesforce implementation in the quickest time possible. Yet, implementation projects and further customizations generally seem never-ending, especially for industries that require CRMs that are heavily customized beyond the Salesforce that comes “out-of-the-box”.

Sales Data Reportable (Post Banner) There’s a decision that every organization faces: do we customize Salesforce in-house or choose Salesforce Industries solutions? Let’s address this question, plus the tools available to development teams (OmniStudio), as well as some examples of Vlocity solutions.

What is Vlocity?

Vlocity (Salesforce Industries) offers pre-built solutions on the Salesforce platform that solve the needs of particular industries that require CRMs to be heavily customized beyond Salesforce in its out-of-the-box state. Founded in 2014, Vlocity quickly gained force as an “industry cloud” pioneer with three Forbes Cloud 100 awards in 2017, 2018, and 2019.

What helped them achieve such rapid success?

Vlocity applications (built on the Salesforce platform) solve the needs of particular industries, such as Communications, Insurance, Energy & Utilities, Financial Services, Media, Health, and Public Sector with omnichannel sales, marketing, service, and CPQ solutions. The key to success is simple. Companies benefit from ready-made flows and pre-built processes that otherwise would take months (and millions) to custom-develop. In 2020 Salesforce acquired Vlocity. As a result of the transaction, Salesforce was able to add Vlocity’s industry-specific CRMs to its existing products, known as Salesforce Industries. After this rebranding, Vlocity’s founder David Schmaier retained the post of CEO of Salesforce Industries, the business division in charge of creating clouds for new verticals.

What is Salesforce Industries?

The acquisition of Vlocity gave Salesforce a leg up on new vertical solutions. Broadly speaking, the 12 current industry clouds make headway in the Vlocity applications. These expand the existing Salesforce data model and provide out-of-the-box solutions that speak the language of their industry. For example, two widely-adopted “clouds” are:

1 Media and Communications Clouds: Organizations get all the required tools and applications to launch subscription services, manage orders, quotes, and contracts in an agile way. 2 Financial Services Cloud: Supports banking, wealth management, and insurance markets by providing a unified platform with a single customer view of their policies, financial records, and claims. These clouds improve sales, service, and marketing agility, as well as operational efficiency, while reducing time to value.

How Does Salesforce Benefit from Vlocity?

This partnership made industry-specific solutions a core element of the platform’s capabilities. Over the years, Salesforce has been improving its agility, aiming to fit any industry challenge. Nonetheless, one obstacle remains unsolved –and that is IT complexity. Imagine an enterprise with a complicated tech stack, including some home-grown applications. Replacing it with a consolidated platform still requires a lot of time and money. Consultants and developers need to customize the solution, align, and integrate applications to support end-to-end business processes. That’s where Vlocity enters.Salesforce vlocity with enterprise product catalog (EPC), CPQ, order management, and digital commerce, as well as pre-built processes and product models. The software is built in close conformance with common industry standards, promulgated by organizations like TM Forum and the MAF. As a result, companies go live faster. They get their staff trained and may become self-sufficient, avoiding unnecessary costs on a bunch of consultants and developers. Salesforce Vlocity Training to an external site. in HKR Trainings would be more Benefit to anyone, they will explain from Basic to Intermediate Level. How? Thanks to its user-friendly customization functionality called OmniStudio.

OmniStudio Overview :

OmniStudio is a modular system with standard click-based components to quickly build Salesforce flows and solutions.

OmniStudio Architecture consists of three layers:

1 Digital Experience

FlexCards summarize and display contextual data and actions, both from Salesforce or third-party systems. OmniScripts let you configure sequences for sales, services paths, and other business processes.

2 Service Management

DataRaptors serve for retrieving, transforming, and updating data. Integration Procedures allow you to retrieve information from third-party services.

3 Developer Experience

IDX Build Tool for managing OmniStudio Datapacks. IDX Workbench is a desktop application for migrating Datapacks and Salesforce metadata.

As a result, unlike custom development, with OmniStudio, you get easy shortcuts and more reuse opportunities to adapt industry-oriented solutions to your own requirements.

Industry clouds are evolving and undergoing changes. Currently, though, you need to mind some possible drawbacks:

Industries combine many clouds into one common functionality. Due to this, it is hard to understand if a particular feature belongs to the current implementation. Releases do not have a clear structure, as all clouds and APIs receive updates in one package. Limited support for bugs and platform limitations. The Vlocity data model and functionality is best suited for enterprise-level businesses. Some would say that it’s overkill for the SMB market, as not only is a larger budget required, small-medium businesses are likely to be left with functionality they don’t need, and won’t use.

Is salesforce Vlocity a CPQ?

salesforce Vlocity offers a number of built-in components that give a new spin to traditional processes, including CPQ. salesforce Vlocity CPQ (now Industries CPQ) is one of the platform’s components. It helps automate the quote generation process and sales flows.

What functionality does it have?

Automation rules for configuring products. Quote approvals, complex pricing. Industry-focused approach. Templates for designing documents and quotes. Enterprise Product Catalog (EPC) to configure and manage CPQ in one place. Guided selling, contract lifecycle management.

Where could I anytime learn Salesforce Vlocity?

Well! The spots and sources to learn are various. Anyway the main problem which lies here is to find magnificent among them all. Do whatever it takes not to push much as I have chipped away at your endeavor and introduced to you the best foundation HKR Trainings to an outer site. that courses of action with all of the modules of Vlocity with most outrageous commitment and values. You can in like manner pick the technique for getting ready according to your versatility.

Can Salesforce Keep Growing? Five Possibilities for Marc Benioff

Editor’s note: This article was contributed to Cloud Wars by Jiri Kram, a solution architect who studied Fintech at MIT and specializes in cloud computing and blockchain. He is a highly respected commentator on LinkedIn, where he originally published this piece on May 6. This article marks Jiri’s third appearance on Cloud Wars; you can see his first two Cloud Wars articles here and here. While Jiri is a good friend of Cloud Wars, the views expressed are his, and do not necessarily reflect the views of Cloud Wars. In particular, I think there is almost no chance that Jiri’s idea of Keith Block returning to Oracle or going to Microsoft will come to pass, and I think there’s an equally tiny likelihood for Jiri’s idea that Thomas Kurian will have Google Cloud develop a database designed to compete with Oracle’s. But multiple views make for interesting debates, so with those qualifiers made, we invite you to enjoy this latest set of provocative ideas from Jiri Kram. Can Salesforce keep growing despite the crisis? That’s a billion-dollar question. And it doesn’t have a straightforward answer. Salesforce has enjoyed so far 35% growth, and the future looks rosy. Can this trend sustain in an environment when IaaS is outgrowing any other cloud category? And how do the Cloud Wars between AWS / Microsoft / Google / Oracle affect Salesforce? Let’s dive in and see what challenges and strategic options Marc Benioff is facing. Will Salesforce say sayonara to Oracle? In 3 years, it will be exactly ten years after Salesforce signed a deal with Oracle. Ever since then, there were various attempts to test if Salesforce can run without Oracle database foundation. These attempts led in creation and acquisition of many new services Einstein, MuleSoft, Commerce Cloud, Marketing Cloud, Pardot, Quip, Heroku that wasn’t built on top of Oracle. Thus, creating a situation when 50% of Salesforce (Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, Force Platform) runs still use Oracle database and java, while the rest use mix of AWS and Azure. The only question is if Salesforce will manage to migrate schema to other databases. Let’s explore Salesforce’s options Stay on Oracle and migrate to Oracle Autonomous Database Migrate Oracle databases to AWS RDS for Oracle Migrate Oracle databases to AWS Aurora or AWS Postgres Create a hybrid deployment use AWS RDS for Oracle for some workloads and move to AWS Aurora, DynamoDB or Postgres Deal with Thomas Kurian 1. Staying on Oracle and migrate to Oracle Autonomous Database This option is possible, due to Keith Block’s departure from Salesforce. If Oracle hires Mr. Block, he would be able to close the deal with Marc Benioff for extending or expanding the Oracle contract. Although it may sound to many unrealistic, technically, this option is the lowest risk for Salesforce. Problem with Oracle database foundation of Salesforce is a simple fact. Beyond core products like Sales Cloud, Service Cloud and Force Platform, there is also AppExchange that contains around 3,500 applications from many vendors. Given all these applications uses in some way shape or form Oracle technologies (schema = objects, fields; security model = profiles, roles, permission sets, OWD; logic = apex / oracle application express; UI = visualforce / oracle JSP). Migrating all of those to some other platform might be very risky, so if Keith Block ends up at Oracle, then it is likely he would attempt this deal.

2. Migrate Oracle databases to AWS RDS for Oracle  This option is also very tempting because Salesforce already has experience with this setting. For example, the Canadian data centre is running on AWS and therefore, it’s likely that Salesforce would be able to deliver Oracle-based schema they are using AWS RDS (Relational Databases Service) for Oracle. Given that AWS now supports all versions of Oracle database including 19c, which was the last version before starts delivering Autonomous Database, RDS should be sufficient for Salesforce purpose. Why? Salesforce licensing deal with Oracle signed in 2012 contained ten years deal but without Oracle Autonomous Database, which didn’t exist by then. AWS RDS now supports all major version 11g, 12c, 18c and 19c so it’s possible this could be sufficient for Salesforce. It’s also relatively safe move, as there is no major change, the primary impact is data centre is operated by AWS and not by Salesforce team, so all maintenance like patching, upgrading, scaling and so of the database wouldn’t need to be done by Salesforce team. This could both reduce Salesforce’s operating cost and help them innovate faster because they would benefit from any development on the AWS side.

3. Migrate Oracle databases to AWS Aurora or AWS Postgres Similar to the previous scenario, here Salesforce would be using AWS RDS but instead running licensed Oracle databases. They would start using either AWS own relational database Aurora or Postgres, which Salesforce already uses in Heroku. My guess is that Salesforce is more likely to use Aurora, because Amazon uses this relational database themselves for the most challenging workloads, which previously ran on Oracle. Aurora, unlike using RDS with Oracle, would also come with the benefit of single cost per database. In case Salesforce would be using RDS for Oracle, here cost of such infrastructure would also be influenced by license cost from Oracle. If Oracle would increase maintenance or any other fees for running Oracle outside of Oracle approved infrastructure (see “Oracle license audit”), you can quickly see that running Oracle on AWS might come with some challenges to consider. So if Salesforce’s Oracle workloads would be migrated to AWS Aurora, then Salesforce would gain an advantage in controlling the cost of the database. If this is done successfully, Salesforce would be able to reduce own cost while price same and thus increasing margin and attractiveness for investors. The only problem is the migration of AppExchange. It’s possible to imagine the migration of core Oracle-based services like Sales Cloud and Service Cloud. But the migration of Force Platform, which has many millions of apps build on top of it and is bundled to commercial offers via AppExchange, might not be so smooth.

4. Create a hybrid deployment use AWS RDS for Oracle for some workloads and move to AWS Aurora, DynamoDB or Postgres  I believe that the Salesforce engineering team will opt for this. The reason is straightforward. Unlike the big bang approach (e.g. let’s take everything and migrate to Aurora), in this scenario, moving off Oracle is phased. Salesforce would likely split migration as follows: 1) workloads that require a relational database, 2) workloads that can use NoSQL database, 3) workloads that are currently in a relational database but doesn’t need to database. Then they would differentiate further: 1) workloads that require a relational database but are using capabilities that can be recreated in Aurora, 2) workloads that are bind to other Oracle technologies and that are not easy to replicate in Aurora. After that hybrid deployment would be stood up; 1) Oracle workloads are first migrated to AWS RDS for Oracle, 2) After that some Oracle workloads are migrated to Aurora some stay on Oracle, 3) Workloads migrated to Aurora are tested and if there is no technical issue, it will start to run in parallel, means APIs will be slowly transition from Oracle RDS to Aurora, 4) If transition to Aurora is successful, RDS Oracle instances will be stopped and kept as backup, 5) Meanwhile workloads that could be converted to NoSQL will be switched to DynamoDB and run in parallel with those in RDS, 6) When conversation is successful DynamoDB will be replacing in selected API connectivity to previous RDS, 7) When transition from RDS to Dynamo is completed then RDS is stopped and kept as backup, 8) Some feature programmed in Java and PL SQL as workarounds on older versions of Oracle database could be developed externally for example using AWS Lambda functions, 9) Same as with RDS new Lambda functions replacing previous code for Oracle will be tested and run in parallel with Oracle, 10) After its clear Lambda functions can replace custom development done in Java for Oracle, then Lambda will start to replace Oracle in APIs, ultimately replacing it. Yes, this will be a long and complicated journey, but many other AWS customers did it, and so it’s technically possible. Once again, however, the main problem is the logistics around AppExchange as the transition from Oracle to AWS can’t impact a running application. Imagine the scenario when Vlocity, Veeva, Apttus, FinancialForce, nCino, ServiceMax and other ISV applications would have any piece of code pointing to Oracle and thus leading to stop instances.

5. Deal with Thomas Kurian This option is improbable, but it’s not impossible. Thomas Kurian came from Oracle, and his primary goal is to replace Oracle. To do this, he will have to beat Oracle at its own game – database. Google currently doesn’t have a database that could be equal to Oracle or AWS Aurora. So it’s likely Kurian will develop a brand new database with his strategic hires from Oracle and will challenge Larry Ellison in the market. Having Salesforce as a reference would be not just a big boost for Google capabilities, but also a highly strategic message. Kurian would steal the most critical SaaS application in the world running on Oracle. And of course, Google sales are full of ex-Oracle people that would use this to visit every single strategic Oracle client and offer them alternative to both AWS Aurora and Oracle. Thomas Kurian is brilliant, and he loves winning. Challenging Larry in his own game could be too tempting for Thomas not to think about. For Google, there might also be another thing in play: many top Salesforce dealmakers were hired by Google, and so there is a direct link between both companies. Besides, Google can buy Salesforce in case they would feel Amazon would consider it. And, let’s not forget Keith Block can join any of players mention above Oracle (to make a deal with Salesforce), AWS (to make a deal with Salesforce to fight Oracle) or Google (to help Thomas Kurian making a deal with Salesforce to challenge AWS and Oracle). One more thing… Some say Keith Block could join Microsoft and, thus, would be the one controlling Salesforce on infrastructure level could be Azure. Impossible? Do you remember Marketing Cloud already runs on Azure? Back to you, Marc and Keith.
