Why this certification?
Yet another certification and some of you will be thinking I’ve gone crazy with certifications 😂 but reality is Salesforce is moving & innovating at lightning fast speed and with all the acquisitions such as Vlocity, platform and capabilities are growing. So to keep up with the pace, one has to keep learning everyday!!
So why this certification?
With Vlocity acquisition in 2020 (now called Salesforce Industries), OmniStudio for Vlocity (formerly Digital Interaction Platform) is slowly becoming part of Core Platform and now known as “OmniStudio”, providing powerful tools which is helping customers run faster with config.
Salesforce OmniStudio really is a powerful suite of capabilities — including OmniScript, DataRaptor, Integration Procedure, and FlexCards — that empower customers to consolidate applications, speed new users to productivity, and reduce your overall cost-to-serve. This slides summarises all.
All these capabilities will continue to evolve and grow as the features become more entwined with those of the core platform. So it’s imperative to learn about the key capabilities of this powerful tool and Salesforce OmniStudio Consultant Certification is really setting the foundation right for newbies.
