Salesforce.com uses Service & Support functionality to manage technical support for its customers. It discusses three main challenges it faces - enabling customer self-service, managing cross-functional escalations, and handling multiple service levels for customers. To address these, Salesforce implemented knowledge management, customization of case management and workflows, and specialized support through service entitlements. This integration of Service & Support tools with customizations has improved efficiency, customer satisfaction and financial metrics.
