FAQ

Common questions

Can Serret replace Salesforce for my team?

For most sales teams, yes. Serret covers CRM, AI, sales engagement, document generation, and wellness in one platform. However, if you rely heavily on custom Apex code, specific AppExchange integrations, or deep enterprise customisation, Salesforce may still be the better fit.

How does Serret's AI compare to Salesforce Einstein?

Serret's Atlas AI is included at the Standard tier ($119/user/month). Salesforce requires the Einstein 1 tier at $550/user/month for comparable AI features. Atlas provides real-time call briefings, smart suggestions, and AI-powered insights without the premium price tag.

What about data migration from Salesforce?

Serret offers free Guided DIY migration with documentation and async support, or you can choose our Accelerator program for hands-on migration assistance. Most teams complete the transition within a week.

Does Serret integrate with other tools?

Yes. Serret integrates with major email providers, calendar systems, diallers, and business tools. While our ecosystem is smaller than Salesforce's AppExchange, we include natively what most teams need separate apps for.

What if we outgrow Serret?

Serret supports teams up to 500 users per tier. For larger deployments, our Premium tier includes custom integrations and advanced analytics. We're built for scaling sales teams, not just small startups.
