Salesforce for K-12 Education FAQ
Schools of all sizes trust Salesforce for Education to deliver exceptional constituent experiences. From exceeding enrollment targets and delivering holistic student support to improving fundraising and streamlining communications, schools are driving impactful results with Salesforce for Education.
CRM stands for customer relationship management. A CRM system enables schools to manage relationships with all of their constituents (including students, families, alumni, donors, and partners) and connect insights from those interactions into a unified view.
Unlike individual point solutions, which only address a single-use case or challenge, a CRM eliminates the pain of having disparate data across a variety of systems. Schools can deliver personalized experiences for all of their constituents on one, integrated platform.
When comparing CRMs consider whether the solution has the integrations and customizations you're looking for, a reputable user experience and ROI, trusted customer support, and the flexibility to grow with your evolving needs. Outline your pain points, compare features, and explore key references.
