The AI Capabilities for Salesforce Suites
Agentforce 360 now powers the Salesforce Suites (Free, Starter, and Pro) with artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. The Suites are powerful, integrated customer relationship management (CRM) platforms designed to assist your team to deliver exceptional, personalized, and efficient support across sales, service, commerce, and marketing. A Suite serves as the single source of truth for all your customer interactions, ensuring a seamless and consistent experience for both you and your team as you grow.
