Salesforce Supply Chain Management Solutions
Improve supply chain management with intelligent and collaborative tools.
While Salesforce is the #1 customer relationship management (CRM) platform in the world, it is not a supply chain solution for manufacturing companies. Salesforce CRM provides many critical functions for sales and service, but it does not provide the supply chain capabilities of a true Enterprise Resource Management (ERP) system.
In the past, many organizations were forced to develop complex system interfaces to connect Salesforce CRM with legacy ERP to synchronize data and pass transactions. Now that is not necessary with the advent of companies like Rootstock Software which developed Cloud ERP natively on the Salesforce platform. Companies can in fact now run both CRM and ERP on the Salesforce Platform.
While Salesforce is not supply chain system, you can run ERP alongside CRM all on the Salesforce Cloud Platform. Rootstock ERP and Salesforce CRM share the same data model, user interface, system administration, security profiles, reporting tools, collaboration tools (Chatter), workflow engine, AI and more.
Rootstock Cloud ERP on Salesforce helps planners stay in sync with production and customer demand with automated and intelligent supply chain management tools.
