Coastal Cloud Reviews

We needed to migrate off of another database and move our processes to Salesforce to take advantage of the Nonprofit power of that platform. This included donor management, constituent management, setting up a Community, and connecting Blackthorn and Mailchimp.

We love that the team connected with us and really understood our goals and needs. Work was always well-done and delivered on time, and they were always willing to go the extra mile. Project management and reporting is a particular strength. There were no surprises in working with Coastal Cloud.

There really is very little to dislike. There were a few occasions in engaging stakeholders, that they presented a few too many options and I would have preferred that they simply make a recommendation in the interest of time. This is a very minor quibble, and I do think overall communication is a strength.

If you are looking for a partner who can truly connect with your team and mission, do not hesitate to contact Coastal Cloud's nonprofit team. They are true experts and are friendly, caring, and hard working.

Coastal Cloud helped us build the ideal configuration. Their team is made up of very experienced consultants that really understood our mission and needs well. They were tremendously helpful in setting up the donor and constituent management, connecting the apps, and getting us trained on the platform. We were so excited at the success and relationship that we are already working on building out more capabilities with a community and full program support for our organization.

First Book contracted with Coastal Cloud starting in early 2017 for an implementation of Salesforce, Pardot, Classy, NPSP , Sales pipeline and other integrations to enable First Book to use Salesforce as a data repository. The project duration was 15 months with ongoing support afterwards.

First Book evaluated 5 different top-tier vendors with extensive interviews prior to selecting Coastal Cloud.

As the SVP of IT, I enjoyed the transparency and communication as the project progressed. This was refreshing in an IT project and I felt like no part of the project was a surprise. Communication with the implementation team was outstanding. The data architecture we put together has benefited the organization and was designed with forethought of how to move the business forward. We had the goal of sticking to "out of the box" mentality with using the software as much as possible and Coastal Cloud helped us stay within those guardrails.

In addition it was extremely valuable to have an organization with ~100 resources in a variety of disciplines that could be pulled into our project for the expertise. This enabled us to move quickly past any hurdles we encountered and the fact that they were all US based ensured communication was not an issue.

I did not have anything in particular that we disliked on the project. This was the feeling of all of the executive stakeholders and in fact we are in the process of contracting with Coastal Cloud for the next phase of our digital transformation.

As SVP of IT for First Book, one of my primary goals is to give the organization systems where automation can enable further efficiency in our processes as we get more complex and enable staff to spend less time on manual processes and more time on the mission. In addition, we did not want a highly customized system with regard to our processes, we wanted to use what was out of the box as much as possible. With these goals set and communicated to Coastal Cloud at the beginning of the project, I always felt as if they were "front of mind" in any decisions they were making which was great for the ultimate outcome.

We chose to use Salesforce to replace a system that was not well aligned with our business model. The challenge was to configure it to synchronize the functional areas of our business sales, manufacturing, and installation services. We needed a partner that could quickly understand our business and Salesforce to accomplish this.

Coastal Cloud really showed their capability to listen and respond to feedback quickly with expert advice and project management. Using an agile methodology was critical on the project as the team adapted Salesforce and the applications to our needs. Bumps in the road are inevitable in any large scale IT transformation, and Coastal Cloud was very professional and responsive in dealing with every challenge we faced.

There was nothing in our interaction that we disliked. Their teamwork with us, and excellent communication, helped us navigate past all challenges we faced

As a CEO, it is critical that any partner be able to exhibit the same levels of professionalism that we expect internally. They must communicate transparently, understand our business quickly, and respond well when met with a challenge. Coastal Cloud was able to meet those goals and act as trusted partner to help us meet our goals. We are very satisfied with the work done thus far and look forward to continued success as we push the platform further to help our business succeed.

Coastal Cloud was reccomended to us from one of out technology partners. As we began to engage thier core compentencies were a good match for several of our needs in creating transformation for our SalesForce Platform as our business needs have evolved.

Coastal is nimble and very easy to do business with. The level of resource they bring to our projects is stellar and pricing is far more pallatable as compared to the big integration partners. They also have a local presence that works well for our internal teams.

Less of a dislike, but a learning curve they have been able to overcome. We are new area of concentration for Coastal Cloud in the Manufacturing/retail/Consumer Package Goods Space, so they had to focus to learn our business model, but they focused to make that a priority and delivered execellent qualtiy after asking the right questions.

We brought Coastal in to help us transition from larger technology integration partner. We were treated like a valued partner, not a small fish in a big pond which delivered results for us in 3 key ways. First, we experienced an increase in the level of resource on our projects. Second, pricing was lower than the big firms due to lower overhead, but this did not dimish the quality of the resources or deliverables and in fact our experience was the oposite. Lastly, the contracting and SOW process was simpler and Coastal Cloud provided more flexibility as we went through our needs assessment. It was a bit of a risk to move to Coastal as an unknown, but we have been very pleased with the resources and deliverables as part of our partnership.

Vector Solutions is the leading provider of SaaS-based compliance-driven enterprise workforce management and performance improvement software solutions. To support both our rapid organic growth combined with an aggressive M&A strategy we needed an effective and highly scalable "go-to-market" infrastructure. We required an experienced partner to implement and manage our installation of Salesforce CRM and associated third party products to enable a consistent installation and rapid way to integrate newly acquired companies. To do so, the partner needed to understand our business goals, provide an agile deployment approach, and a high level of expertise in integrating, configuring and transforming solutions to meet those needs.

Coastal Cloud is an ideal partner blending domain expertise with outstanding project management skills and a strategic focus on improving our effectiveness of our business. They have proven to be a key vendor/partner in our ongoing growth and success.

Finding the right partner with the expertise, consistency and customer focus is not easy . Unfortunately, many end up falling into the category of "just a vendor" versus a true partner willing to invest along with you in creating a mutual success. We were fortunate to have had Coastal Cloud as a partner for the last two years and have been extremely pleased with the depth of talent, quality of the work and ongoing support from their management team.

When selecting a partner to help deliver your CRM, go to market sales process and facilitate integration of acquired businesses, it is critical to select a firm that will focus first on your objectives and pain points, has the capability to bring experienced professional onto your project, and has the staying power to remain a long term partner. Coastal Cloud has proven to me that they have the ideal blend of speed and skill, management expertise and outstanding track record of helping clients become successful. I don't believe you can find a better partner for Salesforce consulting and business transformation than Coastal Cloud.

Coastal Cloud helped us implement SFDC Non-Profit Success Pack for fundraising. This included setting up all our processes and migrating data from our old system.

Project management skills and processes are outstanding and set them apart from virtually every vendor we have worked with. Also, Coastal has significant expertise in the non-profit space so they were able to provide best practices for our team.

I do not have any examples of improvement the consultants could have made.

Coastal Cloud is able to bring together superb project management along with significant skills and expertise to accomplish project goals effectively. This is why we will continue to engage them and would recommend them to others.

We wanted to leverage NPSP for fundraising and online donations. We also have a partner that will help us continue to grow.

Before I started working with Coastal Cloud, I used excel spreadsheets to keep track of all my sales leads and sales reports. Then I was approached by Tim Hale and his team at Coastal Cloud who introduced me to all the capabilities of the Salesforce CRM platform. Coastal Cloud worked with me to customize Salesforce to my specific needs and then uploaded all of my previous excel spreadsheets into the CRM to create a seamless transition. Switching to a CRM from excel spreedsheets was a life-changer for me. The Coastal Cloud team has also given me ongoing support over the last 3-4 years since our project began.

I frequently reach out to Coastal Cloud, specifically Tim Hale, Jake Scully, Rebbeca Beers and Diana Abarca with questions, sometimes far fetched questions, and they are always SO friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. What I like most about Coastal Cloud is that I have worked with the same team since day 1, so they know where i'm coming from and they understand where I want to be. It has been a pleasure working with this team and I know I can count on them.

This question does not apply to Coastal Cloud, as there is nothing that I do not like about them. They have always responded to me in a timely manner and they work diligently to complete the task at hand.

I would absolutely recommend Coastal Cloud to anyone looking to utilize the Salesforce platform. They work to understand what you need Salesforce to do and then they make it happen.

Coastal Cloud assisted in several ways. 1) Helped us automate creating implementation projects within Salesforce based on what products were sold via the Opportunity. 2) Helped streamline our Pardot Campaigns to ensure they were aligned with our company objectives and provided accurate reporting 3) Providing continuous augmented administrative supported for Salesforce and Pardot

The dedication and commitment of the Coastal Cloud team assigned to our account. Their professionalism, can do attitude, attention to detail and overall focus on our success. Every person we encountered from our assigned team, to the billing team and the leadership team were all focused on making our lives easier and our Salesforce instance better. It was very clear to understand and reconcile the hours billed to the service and work provided, very transparent and fair.

There really wasn't anything specific I would reference as something I didn't like. They delivered on time and within budget for each request.

They are a great company that is dedicated to their clients success. They are professional, responsive, transparent and overall great to work with. There is no job to big or to small, I've worked with them for larger projects and as needed augmented admin support with the same attention to detail and focus on our success.

We needed a Consultant who knew the Nonprofit Success Pack. We had started working on configuration, but realized we needed a partner who had experience and could guide us.

The knowledge of the Coastal Cloud employee that assisted us was very impressive. She knew every aspect of Salesforce and was also a fantastic trainer and communicator. She related to our team immediately and gave us a value that we still appreciate today as we run our Salesforce.

I wish we would have engaged with Coastal Cloud from the beginning, we had a different partner first, and would have preferred to work with a more experienced partner. We are also sad that our engagement with this partner has come to a close (for this project). We cannot wait to engage with them again!

If you are considering hiring a partner, do you homework. A great partner is worth their weight in gold. Coastal Cloud’s depth of knowledge and capability to enable your team to learn and implement best practices is outstanding. They are a joy to work with!

We hired Coastal Cloud to implement our first ever case management system for end users. In the past, we had an outdated database that only a few individuals would perform data entry into in order for us to meet our reporting needs.

It’s been a pleasure working with the Coastal Cloud team! They have been extremely patient, flexible and understanding as our program underwent some changes during initial set up. They have always been professional in working with our team and very upfront about what it would take to implement our solutions. They have also have been readily available after deployment to provide support and guidance, which is highly important as a new Salesforce administrator!

There’s nothing to dislike about this team! Don’t hesitate to hire them and let them show you how Salesforce can be utilized to manage your business processes and meet your needs.

Since Salesforce is so customizable and adaptable, trust the team to guide you during the development process. It’s always best to keep things simple and straightforward and that’s what was delivered. The team was great about building us a platform that will allow us to grow overtime as our organization expands and extends the reach of our programs.

First Book has a hybrid business model of earned and philanthropic revenue. Managing constituent relationships, partner alliances and forecasting revenue through a centralized CRM suite is critical. We worked with Coastal Cloud to design an enterprise system solution that integrated multiple legacy data sets, and streamlined back-end reporting capabilities driven by a personalized, relevant front-end user experience to achieve greater efficiency and drive revenue growth.

We got to know the team well and enjoyed not only their professionalism and smart problem-solving, but also their positive spirit, which made the work enjoyable. They care as much about our mission as we do and acted as an extension of our team.

I wish we would have found them sooner than we did. We were lucky to have received a referral. They could do better with reaching out to customers like us.

Coastal Cloud helped us develop a phased approach to our implementation, was clear with where we stood against our budget along the way, and helped us develop trade-offs when we added to the scope of the project. They were strong stewards of our resources and would suggest areas where our team should take the lead on tasks and where their team should take the lead in order to make the best use of the budget.

Salesforce implementation with supporting engagements focusing on CRM, data analytics and customer marketing automation.

Coastal Cloud was extremely knowledgeable and able to provide great insight and support of our initiative. We relied on their expertise to aid us in determining best practice and best execution strategies to achieve our team goals. They were consistently prompt in replying to inquiries and execution.

I have no dislikes with the Coastal Team. They are excellent partners who work well in diverse and ambiguous situations.

A solid partner can make or break a major project. Coastal Cloud demonstrates expertise, patience and ability that greatly aids in a successful execution. I would not hesitate to use them again in the future.

Coastal Cloud is helping us integrate CPQ and transition several business units under one Salesforce instance.

Partnering with Coastal Cloud has been easy! They are professional, experienced, responsive, timely and focused on getting the job. We have collaborated on several projects with Coastal Cloud and I love the fact that we are able to continue to work with the same team on all of our projects, it really makes me feel like they are part of OUR team!

What's to dislike! I love the team at Coastal Cloud, they make me feel that our projects are as important to them as they are to us.

If you are looking for a great partner to help you get your next Salesforce project started or over the finish line, give Coastal Cloud a call. There is no project too small or too big and they are not afraid to get their hands dirty.

We needed to bring our support teams from manual processes and data to the next generation of technology. Our sales teams were already on Salesforce and we wanted to benefit from the platform as well as combine data on it to give our company greater synergy and insights.

Coastal Cloud’s team augmented our team perfectly. Their knowledge and ability to help us manage the project was fantastic. No matter what came up during the projects, Coastal Cloud had the experts ready to solve the problem quickly. Coastal Cloud also is very experienced and could relate to the executives in our company.

I really can’t say there was anything I dislike about Coastal Cloud.

If you are looking for a reliable, well-rounded, and professional group of individuals to help you meet your goals related to Salesforce, look no further! Since the first time we met, Coastal Cloud has genuinely worked to maintain and improve our relationship. Their dedication to their clients success is impressive and for that I value them the most. Remember, a vendor is as good as the people working in it.

Solera has partnered with Coastal Cloud for 3 years to consolidate Salesforce and other CRM platform (Goldmine, Act, Sugar, ZenDesk, you name it) to one Salesforce.com instance for Solera North America. Coastal Cloud is a part of the team as we collaborate to enable one view of customer.

Since our first project in 2015, we have continued to partner with Coastal Cloud on additional CRM migrations as well as launching CPQ.

Coastal Cloud is led by Tim and Sara Hale, former Accenture partners. They have spent the past 10 years building a fun working environment with associates dedicated to helping companies to transform their workplace leveraging technology. I appreciate greatly their partnership mentality. These projects are not simple and we enjoy the journey together.

There is not much to dislike about Coastal Cloud. They work hard to build a great partnership with the companies they work with. We have created an open dialogue to work through the many "opportunities" that come our way.

A partnership works best when there is a clear agreement up front of the project objectives and end goal. With any project, I recommend staying engaged and building relationships with the extended team.

Our manufacturing and sales processes utilized over 30 different systems and data sources. We needed to connect our business on a single platform.

Coastal Cloud’s team possesses the high level of expert resources, executive experience, and dexterity we demand in a partner.

There has not been a single glitch in our interactions with Coastal Cloud.

Coastal Cloud’s people really make the difference. The team was both highly skilled, but also very personable and superb at working with a business to understand their mission and goals. We found them to be our ideal partner for manufacturing and sales and look forward to continued success with them.

Coastal Cloud is one of Gainsight's most strategic & critical system integrator partners. Their deep expertise of Gainsight & SFDC, combined with their former CS operator model, presents enhanced best practices for our mutual customers. They will continue to play a key role in the growth of our business development efforts and in the delivery of thoughtfully strategized implementation & on-going service engagements across our customer segments.

On-top of their domain expertise, the Coastal Cloud team approaches every client engagement with the utmost preparedness and professionalism. It is a delicate scenario bringing in a 3rd party into any customer engagement. Not only does Coastal Cloud deliver on expectations, but they exceed by complementing our process and approaching those engagements as a unified team.

No notable areas of disappointment or critique.

I would highly recommend Coastal Cloud as a trusted partner & collaborator for any organization who is embarking on a refreshed or brand new customer success strategy. You'll be met with technical expertise, top-notch project management & impactful business strategy. Not to mention a friendly face that makes these business challenges more enjoyable to tackle!

Initial project was re-start of a Salesforce implementation, with a complicated integration to legacy systems. Coastal Cloud immediately became an integral part of not just the project team, but provided insight and direction in the development of a mutli-year technology roadmap. Several major initiatives were planned and completed successfully with their help.

Willingness to be a part of the solution development, extremely knowledgeable implementation folks, and easily worked with all levels of leadership and employees. Quickly understood the operating environment and leadership's vision for the organization, with a focus on delivering value to stakeholders, while making sure individual users' needs were met.

There's not much to dislike. Even when we ran into the inevitable issues during several integrated implementations, Coastal Cloud was quick to remedy the situation, get everything back on track - regardless of how it got off track - and keep delivering positive impact not only to us as a client, but our customers.

Consider having Coastal Cloud as an IT advisor, not just a Salesforce implementation partner.

Used Coastal Cloud as our partner to customize our Salesforce to meet the needs of our various business units across our footprint.

What I like best is working with my Coastal Cloud partner to come up with great ideas that we are both comfortable with for the success of the bank . The concern for our business and how we manage our system is genuine. Working with the same partner since 2011 is a huge benefit for our company.

What I dislike is not having my partner Pam here in my office with me everyday. I wish she worked here full-time.

I have used other services and didn't receive the same level of customer service and knowledge. My recommendation would be to use Coastal Cloud when considering other avenues for Salesforce assistance. I highly recommend Coastal Cloud.

We started our relationship with Coastal Cloud implementing Contract Lifecycle Management and Esignature. From our initial project, we have since expanded into Sales Process improvement for the Seller Journey in Sales Cloud, Process Automation, Configure Price Quote (CPQ), Integration with SAP, Lightning Experience Transition, Reporting/Dashboards, Einstein Analyticsand Marketing Cloud.

We were first enamored with Coastal Cloud for their technical expertise and knowledge. However, they really impressed us with their business and industry knowledge. The combination of technical and business knowledge is where they really shine. Their team are all true professionals that are responsive to your every need. Additionally, they can work a project from a discovery/requirements phase all the way to change management/training post deployment. They can handle any aspect of a project.

My only wish is that I could work with them more.

I would recommend those considering Coastal Cloud understand the real value of the service you will receive from their team. They definitely have the technical expertise, but what disguises them is they pair that with strong business acumen and industry knowledge that will make you project flourish. Additionally, they can work a project from a discovery/requirements phase all the way to change management/training post deployment. They can handle any aspect of a project you need with their team members that specialize in all areas.

The purpose of the project is to move all of our existing processes (that are currently housed within several different systems) onto one single platform, Salesforce. Coastal Cloud is our partner in completing this project. It is currently ongoing, but we have successfully deployed our first phase under budget and on time. A first for us (the customer).

Sometimes we (the customer) get stuck in a rut doing things the way we always have, and can't see passed our own bias. Coastal Cloud is great at getting us to focus and really narrow down what we need and the best way to get it.

I can't say I dislike anything about working with Coastal Cloud, we consider them a part of the team. Maybe we're a little jealous that they were able to understand "our crazy" so quickly, but that's a good thing!

Coastal Cloud is amazing and they will make any project go more smoothly. I would suggest having dedicated resources working with Coastal Cloud because they turn things around quickly.

Coastal Cloud supported our global deployment of Sales Cloud, CPQ and a PSA solution and continues to partner with us on implementation of other SFDC products.

I will simply say - they care. In 6 months, they enabled us to deploy Sales Cloud and CPQ around the world including introducing a new operating model for many parts of our company. Every step of the way they brought the right people to the problems - opened doors at Salesforce and enabled us to be successful. When we had challenges (that we did not even realize) they immediately filled the gap so we were collectively successful.

Our biggest item to overcome was that our company is an in person face to face culture. The remote approach to working for different periods of time as you implement is a different operating model to work with and we both worked on different ways on how to accommodate the commitment made to Coastal staff and the way in which we operate. And if anything urgent came up, the team was in person by the next day. It pushed our team to think differently as well

Spend the time to meet with the team and discuss the problems which you are trying to solve. Engage not just IT stakeholders but have the business work side by side with the team an they will unlock different ways of approaching the problem in Salesforce.

We implemented Sales Cloud and a pilot project for Service Cloud and CPQ.

The collaboration and guidance that we received from Coastal Cloud was outstanding. There was a seamless feedback loop, and issues we identified during testing were resolved by the next morning.

When we encountered unexpected issues with SSO, they did not bill us for hours beyond what they had stated it would take to make it work - even though the issues turned out to be a result of our environment.

I am not sure why I am required to enter something here. I can't think of anything that would stand out as something that I didn't like about the engagement - at least not as far as Coastal Cloud was concerned.

We needed help taking some of our manual processes and making them automatic with software. Appointments and products, pet record uploads, approvals for refills, and connecting to quickbooks were our main issues. We also wanted to make things work without having to go to other websites for time clock, vacation scheduling, surveys for new clients, and and for the owner to look at reports to see how the business was running.

Coastal was really fantastic to work with - the people! From the first meeting until we finished, they were professional and knowledgable. Of course, doing our work faster now is really awesome, but working with IT folks is not always easy!

It was not easy to find a partner to help with this since we are a small business. We were not happy with the old software we were using and heard Salesforce could make things easier but got stuck trying to make our own solutions.

If you are looking for a partner, they are really wonderful - super smart and really nice to work with.

Our company was considering the use of Salesforce and other software solutions for automation of processes and centralization of data.

The Coastal Cloud team stands out from many consulting partners due to their years of consulting experience in a wide array of industries. They advised us on the best decision for our business, and did not lead us to commit to a favorite solution.

There is nothing negative to mention in regards to Coastal Cloud’s organization or our interactions.

When choosing a partner, I highly recommend Coastal Cloud over others due to their depth of knowledge and experience in all industries and at all levels of the business. They understand the perspective of the entire organization, from the C-Suite to the customer agents.

We needed a partner to help us assess our needs with a large list of improvements we wanted to make to our Salesforce platform. We also needed to improve our sales process to increase efficiency and usability. Prior to CPQ we had built a heavily customized process and needed to transform that into something simple with a more functional user interface.

We were happy to have Coastal Cloud's expertise in CPQ and the configuration tools Salesforce has to offer that our team did not have any experience with. Coastal's team was very easy to get along with and collaborate together with the whole way.

I truly can't say I dislike anything about the experience I have had with Coastal Cloud.

If you are considering hiring a partner for CPQ, Coastal Cloud's team is not only easy to work with but they have a deep understanding of the entire platform. If you have complex customization in place, I would hire a partner like Coastal Cloud.

We needed a much more effective process and technology to track and convert contact center leads, and conversions, as well as integrating them with our legacy CRM and of course reporting on results myriad ways.

Coastal Cloud is far and away the best partner I’ve worked with. Business acumen, communications, industry expertise, SFDC ecosystem knowledge and expertise, the ability and desire to understand my business in depth - and then break down significantly complex business challenges - and culture are all critical components to their success. For me that really differentiates them in a crowded SFDC ecosystem.

I wish I could find a partner like Coastal for other areas of my business!

Highly recommended - Tim's team continually demonstrates their knowledge of my industry and business as well as their SFDC expertize, flexibility, commitment and value.

Coastal Cloud set up our initial implementation of Salesforce, importing and organizing data from 9 different databases and customizing our instance to fit our needs as an economic development organization and not a traditional sales department. Coastal Cloud has continued to support us as we work to improve and expand the capabilities of our CRM.

I like that, not only can I call on the Coastal Cloud consultants to assist me with issues when needed, they have trained me and continue to teach me how to do many things for myself so I can handle many problems and user requests on my own.

Since Salesforce is geared toward a traditional sales model, some of the functionality does not work for our line of business, but Coastal Cloud has done their best to accommodate our needs by creating custom objects that allow us to accomplish what we need to.

A+ for cost, responsiveness, expertise and training.

Worked to configure our SFDC instance, scale the architecture into service cloud and Communities and provide guidance and administration on HubSpot.

Quality of staff and expertise of skill. I would strongly recommend any mid market growth company to Coastal Cloud if they want to use their tech stack (CRM and marketing automation) to super charge their growth trajectory.

Juggling all of the balls with them. Often times there are many parallel projects and you've got to work with the partner to keep all things on track - leaving nothing behind.

Give better direction up front. A partner as skilled as Coastal Cloud will deliver what you direct so strong inputs lead to great outputs and projects you are pleased with.

Our company needed to streamline our sales process and reduce overall sales cycle time. The biggest issue was having >1K of SKUs and we were looking into reducing it and make our sales team life easier.

The Coastal Cloud’s team is very personable and has a great communication skills. Their expertise in CPQ helped us a lot and they are very good at understanding how we work, our goals, and helped us to meet them.

I wish we brought Coastal Cloud’s team earlier into our process. It would have helped us to finish the project earlier.

We were considering doing the work ourselves with a little bit of help. After engaging with Coastal Cloud, we realized we could complete the project faster and improve our capabilities even more by utilizing their team of experts.

We decided to use Salesforce to improve our business processes, connect different sources of data, and automate actions within our company and dealership network.

Coastal Cloud's professionalism, level of knowledge, and responsiveness is top notch.

There isn't anything I can think of about our engagement with Coastal Cloud that I found negative in any way.

I have been in IT for over 15 years, and have worked with numerous partners. Coastal Clouds capabilities are top notch and amongst the best I have seen.

Converting North America businesses onto one CRM platform and implementing Salesforce CPQ.

The Coastal Cloud team has been an instrumental piece in our business transition into Salesforce CPQ. The team is knowledgeable and professional all the way. Our company’s goal is to get all of our business on one common platform. This has not been an easy task with each business having a quirk of its own. We could not have done the transition without Erica, Gaines, and team.

Dislike - no. Request - yes. If the team could translate their knowledge into working documents to help us support our business afterward, that would be a great asset.

Coastal Cloud assembles a talented and dedicated team. Give the team all requirements upfront. Be response to the project team. During testing, complete cases and tasks as they are assigned to ensure changes were completed and tested.

Developed a student information system that has transformed our Teen Trendsetter Reading Mentor program.

THE TEAM! This team is incredible in terms of smarts, availability and just care about our mission, our budget and moving us to the next level.

There is really nothing not to like because the LIKES are so great!

The ability to communicate and share the ideal needs of implementing a database system. Be prepared to be challenged to think in new ways and trust that you have a safety net with the smart, innovative and realistic team at Coastal Cloud. Also, know they have your best interest at heart and will always consider your needs first.

We hired Coastal Cloud to help automate business processes as well as establish an online application system.

The ease of tracking application progress and review. The ability to organize and report out information. The automation of the processes to reduce staff time to manage clients. Great teamwork and always there and responsive to needs.

I wish that we would have had Coastal Cloud from the beginning. There were others that started to set up the system and did not set it up properly. Coastal Cloud was able to help us fix all those things that were incorrect and get us running smoothly.

Call Coastal Cloud first.

I worked closely with Coastal Cloud on a project when I was a Salesforce Account Executive. The project was with a large Canadian customer that had fallen behind with their Enterprise architecture and solutions, and was suffering reduced revenue and decreased efficiency as a result..

1. "All in same boat" approach - a true understanding and collaborative partnership between Coastal Cloud, Salesforce and the Customer.

2. Change Management and Communication (many partners neglect this)

3. Laser-focused awareness and understanding of the Customers business, their challenges and objectives and what they need to transform and achieve.

4. The relationship - successful implementations are not easy! You have to focus on the relationship and maintain it for success.

There was nothing about the project, the Coastal Cloud people or the results that could be disliked!

We were converting our sales tracking system from a manual process to a streamlined online system. We wanted to improve our reporting capabilities for more accurate reporting and budgeting.

The dedication of the team is their best asset. From Tim and Sara Hale to the techs that worked with us we couldn't possibly have found a better fit for our company. As a financial services company we pride ourselves in our customer service and that is exactly what we found with Coastal Cloud.

There is nothing that we disliked about working with Coastal Cloud.

I would highly recommend Coastal Cloud. Their professionalism and their customer service can't be met by any other company.

Coast Cloud originally customized Salesforce to our specifications making it relative to the types of projects and companies we service. Whenever we need changes or to build a feature to help us further better manage our database, Coastal Cloud is responsive to our requests and creative in their solutions. I really enjoy working with the programmer assigned to our account. The process is collaborative and fun.

My favorite part is collaborating with the team. Every time I have had a new request or project, the response is positive. Even though I am not an I.T. professional, my ideas are encouraged and I am treated as if I too am a valuable part of the CoastalCloud team.

In our most recent project we had a productive discovery. Unfortunately, person who was going to write the scope of work was unavailable so we had to revisit a couple of points.

So far, we have done Sales Cloud, DocuSign implementation, Pardot implementation, and DialogTech implentation. The Lightning Implementation is coming next and we are excited to continue our partnership on this project!

While at PermaTherm, I've enjoyed working with Coastal Cloud. The Managed Services Team is easy to work with, quick to respond, always willing to jump on a call for support in SalesForce. They have made my life tremendously easier.

There is nothing I dislike while working with Coastal Cloud.

I would definitely recommend Coastal Cloud for any services or implementations needed for your company. They have the right people, the right skills, and most of all are super friendly and helpful!

Coastal Cloud assisted with the transition to our new Salesforce org. Not only the transition but the entire setup of our new Salesforce org, and creating the "behind the scene" stuff so that we could operate efficiently.

I love that they teach in the process of setting up our organization. They asked the right questions to ensure they knew exactly what we wanted, and even gave suggestions on things that we didn't even know we could do. They linked us with the app developers for issues we were having which we didn't have previously. They completed the work on time, and was very thorough. Coastal Cloud understood our situation and the dilemma that we were in.. and it "all hands on deck". Most importantly, they are a true pleasure to work with.

My one and only dislike is that we didn't find out about them when we originally purchased our Salesforce org.

Partnering with Coastal Cloud has been a great experience. The team was great to work with; their experience and ability to understand the needs of the customer helped us stay focused on getting the job done. The team has always been just a phone call away to assist or continue updating items for a better workflow. I have built great relationships with the team, and I know that my questions will always be answered.

The partnership between Coastal Cloud and our company. Personal relationships being built along with great trust in the ability and professionalism of the team.

There was nothing to dislike, it was a great experience as well as a great way to learn more about Salesforce.

Coastal Cloud is a great partner and will work on solutions to get what your company needs. The knowledge of the team and ability to keep a project on task is amazing. Highly recommended.

I utilized coastal cloud to overhaul our Salesforce platform for a behavioral healthcare company. Coastal Cloud built a platform and optimized it for my inside sales, sales, and, intake teams.

My partner at Coastal Cloud, Melissa Taliaferro, was simply the best. I worked with Melissa for six months. She is an excellent partner and is remarkable at business process improvement. Melissa is quick to identify and understand business needs unique to each industry. She rapidly delivers value by creating CRM solutions that allow management to more effectively execute as well as measure performance. She is a problem solver, collaborator, strategic thinker, highly organized, and efficient. On top of it all her personality is positive, joyful, and she delivers excellent customer service every time. She has won my loyalty to Coastal Cloud.

I do not have any dislikes at this time. The service was excellent.

N/A

Coastal Cloud is a Kimble implementation partner. They provide implementation consultants and technical leads to projects that are implementing Kimble's PSA solution for new customers.

The wide geographic footprint and dependable level of high caliber talent provides a needed force multiplier for Kimble's services delivery capability. It would be too expensive and take too long to grow this capability organically so, leveraging our partnership with Coastal Cloud safeguards our ability to maintain our hyper growth mode.

We would like to see Coastal Cloud extend further to the west, specifically the west coast where we are seeing significant additional growth.

The Coastal Cloud team helped us get started with Salesforce and has worked with us over the last 4 years to get our instance where it is today. Coastal Cloud is our trusted Salesforce advisor. We have used Coastal Cloud as a partner for over 4 years now and they have always come through when we needed them. Their level of expertise and problem solving skills has been instrumental in helping our bank to meet our financial goals.

The Coastal Cloud team is extremely responsive and helpful when needed. Tyler Martin and Tim Hale have been our primary contact's and have proven most helpful in helping us create and maintain our Salesforce platform to meet our banks ongoing needs.

There is nothing that we dislike about working with Coastal Cloud at this time.

Highly recommend using the Coastal Cloud team as they are a true partner to our bank.

Coastal Cloud worked closely with our staff to understand our needs and priorities. The team created a customer relationship database to manage our projects from inception to completion and maintenance. The metrics that we're able to monitor through this system have reduced turnaround time for ROI evaluation, provided consistency in analysis and improved our response time for business engagement.

Coastal Cloud's staff became an extension of my operations. They sat with our team, learned about out industry, asked relevant questions with respect to our day-to-day operations and possible improvements in standard operating procedures. They are more than programmers, they are solution-driven business analysts.

I wish we had started the program earlier.

Share details of how the operations work and be open to recommendations.

We partnered with Coastal Cloud to help transform our paper-based rebate submission process to a completely paperless one. This will help us better engage with our customers and free-up team member capacity.

Our Coastal Cloud team really helps solve our business problems and meet our needs. They help provide strategic direction and truly care about the success of Florida Public Utilities.

I wish we would have found them sooner to help us solve our problems and drive value.

Coastal Cloud has very talented and skilled consultants who put us first and help drive value quickly.

Ongoing support and short and longer-term projects to develop, automate and extend Salesforce

Depth and knowledge of team. All very professional and extremely knowledgeable

There is noting that I can think of that is not to like

I have enjoyed working with Coastal Cloud. The team at every level is not just proficient, but completely engaged in our success in using Salesforce for our total business process management. They feel like an extension of our team.

Coastal Cloud was able to quickly document our provider sign up process. They created a "to be" process that is efficient and streamlined, allowing for a 30% staff reduction, and reduced processing time by 67%. They partnered with the business to make the solution a reality. The team was diligent, very knowledgable and a pleasure to work with.

They genuinely care about your business and achieving stated goals. They owe the issues and resolve them quickly. They are very efficient and understand the platform's capability and how to make them work in your environment.

Hard to think of anything as they are truly a trusted partner that delivers.

Talk to them and you won't be disappointed.

We worked Coastal Cloud to expand our Marketing Cloud efforts and refine our Salesforce infrastructure as we expand its use across our company. Additionally, they helped us fill gaps in staff augmentation during team transitions. Since working with Coastal, we've optimized our journey builder practices, ultimately leading to better engagement with our patients and their families.

The Coastal Cloud staff regularly exceeds our expectations in terms of quality of service and product delivered, as well as staying within timeframe and budget.

There isn't anything in particular that I dislike about Coastal Cloud. They've met expectations and been nimble to adjust direction and prioritization as we've requested.

Consultative services on a variety of salesforce.com org consolidation and CPQ implementation.

The tenacity to deal with the complex nature of our business model, as well as willingness to tackle any task with which you could challenge their team.

We have a strong working relationship with this partner. Nothing specific with regards to dislike.

Coastal Cloud built a community for our members, enabling course information and self service reservations. We connected data that was not on the same platform, which made booking and relating to the client much easier as we could see their course benefits data and history on their record. Coastal Cloud configured this to automatically came up on the call with a CTI integration on our phones.

Great communication from their team during weekly project update calls. Agenda and project timelines were clearly documented to stay on task.

There was nothing in particular that we disliked about working with Coastal Cloud.
