What is Salesforce Copilot and How to Get Started?
Since the invention of Generative AI, many things have changed in the business world and, most importantly, in customer-facing teams. Before the invention of generative AI, customer-facing teams like Sales, Marketing, and support teams were left with never-ending manual tasks like recording data and understanding conversations.
But not anymore. With Copilot being implemented some burden of these teams have loosened. Salesforce also recently launched Salesforce Einstein CoPilot, which is natively integrated into the Salesforce ecosystem. In this blog, we will understand exactly what it is and how you can get started.
Key Takeaways

- Enhanced Productivity: Assists sales, service, marketing, and development teams by automating tasks, generating content, and providing predictive insights.
- Key Benefits: Prepares sales reps, supports service teams, aids marketing, and helps developers with code tasks.
- Areas for Improvement: Faces challenges with complex analytics, team collaboration, and natural language processing.
- Worknet’s Advantage: Offers superior task management, third-party integrations, and collaboration tools compared to Salesforce Einstein Copilot.

Salesforce Einstein Copilot takes company data from the Salesforce ecosystem to answer the queries of customers. It also integrates with Einstein GPT, which is Salesforce's generative AI, to create human-like text responses and content. This enables Copilot to draft emails, create reports, generate summaries, and provide detailed responses to queries.
Furthermore, it analyzes historical data and current trends to offer predictive insights and recommendations to customer-facing teams. For example, it can suggest the next best actions for a sales representative, predict potential customer service issues, or recommend marketing strategies based on data patterns.
Overall, it's a powerful tool that works natively with Salesforce so that users don't have to keep shuffling between two or more systems at once.

What is Missing in Salesforce Einstein Copilot?
Although Salesforce Einstein Copilot is a well-executed project, it's not perfect. We've conducted a thorough review and found that it's lacking in some critical areas. Let's have a look.
1. Too Complex Predictive Analytics
It provides highly advanced predictive analytics tools for interpreting and acting on predictive models, but it's just not a right fit for those without technical backgrounds. Ease of use is lacking in this area.
2. Team Collaboration Features Need Improvements
Team collaboration is severely restricted in the Salesforce environment. Hence, integrating more tools for team collaboration can certainly improve productivity and ensure seamless communication.
3. Natural Language Processing Capabilities Are Restricted
Although Einstein is using advanced ML and NLP algorithms, it's just nowhere near the capacities of generative AI tools like GPT. Many users have reported that sometimes Einstein provides completely illogical answers if the query is complex. So, there's space for Einstein Copilot to better interpret and respond to complex, context-specific queries that can improve user interactions.

Benefits of using Worknet’s Salesforce Copilot

3. Improved Collaborations
Worknet believes in teamwork and hence provides collaboration tools like shared task lists and real-time communication with Copilot. This feature is lacking in Einstein, as we highlighted above.
