What will happen with Vlocity after acquisition? I saw a demo and the Vlocity is neat and they said it’s no/low code. Why can’t SAlesforce add that UI feature rather than buying added license just to use Vlocity (ehem! expensive)

Vlocity is way more complex of a platform than a “no/low code UI feature”. Talk to someone at your company who has implemented it, you’ll learn a lot more than a sales pitch demo. They sell on their “edge”, but delivery/capability is a whole different ballgame.

Not only that... Salesforce also needs to be able to recoup on their investment... “let’s buy Vlocity for 1.3b+ and then give it away for free” is likely not a game winning strategy to discuss with Benioff

just shows SF UI is under par. Vlocity’s edge is their seemingly ‘industry’ specific out of box solutions and not the features of the platform

It’s the data model and promise of “best practice”
Clients will pay top dollar if they know they’re getting a platform their competitors use

Hey all!!
Hope you all are doing good.
Can someone share your thought of how to deal with this situation. I am completely lost in terms of my mental health. Not able to overcome and accept this situation. I think this is right place to ask, as we all are going through the same.

Mentioning the programs is greatly appreciated.
