Episode 002 gets at the history of the Service Cloud. It’s not been around as long as Salesforce has as a company, but it’s not that much younger than the Sales Cloud. It’s seen many evolutions over time though; in name, features, and possibilities. Cheryl and Jeff explore the Service Cloud’s history and what makes it amazing today.
