Salesforce is the most powerful CRM platform in the world and one of the worst user experiences in enterprise software. The Lightning redesign improved surface-level aesthetics but didn't address the fundamental information architecture problems. Navigation is labyrinthine, customization creates inconsistency, and the simplest tasks require too many clicks. Users don't choose Salesforce for its UX; they tolerate its UX for its capability.
What earns the score
- +Platform capability is genuinely unmatched in CRM
- +AppExchange ecosystem extends into every business function
- +Reporting and analytics are powerful once configured
What holds it back
- –Navigation is labyrinthine and inconsistent
- –Customization creates experience fragmentation
