InterSystems IRIS vs. Salesforce Data Cloud

Intersystems IRIS is a really great tool for Interoperability. It has so many capabilities out of the box and then such a great developer community on top of that, that there are really no limits to what you can do in terms of data manipulation and translation. Personally I find it to be a great tool if you are looking for Interoperability software.

I would recommend Salesforce Data Cloud as an 8 because it is great for keeping track of customer and sale information, it is easy to use, it is easy to generate reports and it is user friendly. However, it is very expensive and does not integrate with other CRMs well

• Connecting with mutliple vendor platforms and systems allowing us to consume and provide data as needed.
• Allowed us to implement our own RESTful api engine to server data to our internal applications.
• Setting up their recommendations for high availability allow us to perform server maintenance with minimal down time to our users.

• Ingest data from various sources
• Reporting an Analysis

Incentivized

• Enhanced documentation, more comprehensive and user-friendly documentation, including detailed tutorials and examples
• Improving compatibility and integrations with others programming languages
• Introducing tools and techniques to optimize the performance of ObjectScript applications, such as profiling tools, performance monitoring utilities, and code optimization guidelines
• A better compatibility with Python libraries

• Better UI for naive users
• More comprehensive reports for end users
• Maintenance is high for now

The interface is very intuitive, the documentation is very good so it is not complicated to operate.

The security is complex, but you can create a special role to access and the user ONLY can operate with the part that it allows.

Also, you can examine the data very quick with the SQL Browser integrated.

I would rate Salesforce Data Cloud's usability a 9 because I do think it is very easy to use. You can easily create new contacts, add notes to contacts, add house information, generate reports, create workflows, etc. You can even have it schedule marketing emails to customers to auto send an email for holidays like Christmas, New Years, etc. It is very user friendly and helps to create a nice customer journey with it all in once place.

The InterSystems WRC has always been helpful and responsive. The folks I have spoken with are always understanding of our needs and questions and regardless of if the question is simple or complex we are always met with the same professionalism and helpfulness every time. I have no hesitations contacting InterSystems for help!

Will done based on a proper planning, so this will makes execution more easier and better.

We are using InterSystems IRIS [especially] for database operations as the query performance is really good for [a large] amount of customer data. You can easily integrate for any application like web, desktop, and many more. It also provides BI functionality which is also very easy to implement using InterSystems IRIS[.]

They are quite similar but it was a decision made amongst other stakeholders as well so I can’t justify the reason from my own department but as I understand salesforce allows better integration and since our CRM is already on salesforce it makes sense for us to unify at all.
