  • How technical do users need to be to use Improved Apps's software?

    Non-technical solution, designed for business analysts, subject matter experts to own. You do not need to be a system admin or advanced user.

  • What makes Improved Apps a leader in this space?

    We specialise in Salesforce like no other solution in the market...We are not limited by this, our solutions (like others) can go cross-platform too. As our solution is built on Salesforce, for Salesforce customers this is a huge differentiator for the following reasons…

    We have been security reviewed by Salesforce - No other vendor can say this!

    We have many Salesforce components, offering flexibility of how users engage with the apps and any content. This means nothing breaks! This means it works on Salesforce mobile natively (not requiring a browser) and supports any Salesforce supported device or browser. No technical limitations or overheads.

    There is less to learn about our solution. It’s just an extension of what they already know. Easy management overall, zero effort user management, profiling, permission setting is already in place.
    Customers know Salesforce Reports and Dashboards, so they adopt and adapt ours with zero training required. They can combine any Salesforce data with our user interaction data with ease.

    Data residency: No data leaves the customers trusted org, no browser extensions leaking data or user engagement information out of their trusted org. Improved Apps do not have access to Customer environments either. Customers can control their data like they control any other data within Salesforce.

    If configuration changes happen, like fields move around pages...Nothing breaks! We urge prospects to put vendors to the test on this, as many other vendor solutions that require browser extensions, everything breaks if something as simple as a field moves around the page.

    Our solution has been designed for the business to own, not a sys admin. We’re not expecting anyone with technical know how… So non-advanced users, with the right permissions can drive and monitor end user engagement with ease.

    Security, availability and scalability is Salesforce. So we fly through customers' procurement process as they have already ticked all the boxes by deploying Salesforce. Our solution sits within their trusted Salesforce environment. Nothing new...Not another external platform to trust.

    Our solution is the most flexible, extensible solution on the market.
