Supercharge your Salesforce Data - Pre-Webinar ThumbnailAre you struggling to keep your Salesforce.com data complete and clean? Do you wish for a single portal where you could view all information related to a single customer? Many organizations find it challenging to consolidate, validate and continuously cleanse customer data and provide a comprehensive and accurate view to their sales and service teams. To complicate matters, customer data is frequently derived from different platforms, causing integration headaches, or worse, unreliable data!

Organizations that rely on Salesforce.com for Customer Relationship Management have found that it lacks native, in-built Enterprise Data Management or Data Quality solutions. Most third-party solutions available on the AppExchange are not robust enough to meet enterprise-wide needs.

Salesforce, meet Oracle! Oracle’s Master Data Management (MDM) and Data Quality (DQ) solutions are unparalleled in the industry and are frequently rated top performers by Gartner.  The Serene SFDC to Oracle Customer Data Management Connector is built on the native Force.com platform and offers outstanding and valuable features.  Our pre-built, plug-and-play integration offers quick time-to-value.

Register now for our free Webinar this Thursday, July 21, at 1 PM CST to learn the benefits of this unique solution and how you can Supercharge your Salesforce Data with Oracle Master Data Management and Data Quality Solutions!  This is a hot topic and spots are limited!
