We use Salesforce. It's complicated, but we've integrated it with Wrike (project management) and Hubspot (adding opportunities/leads, prospect scoring). Our Client Services team uses it for support (tickets automatically opened when emails come in) and that works great. Integration with Outlook also adds any inbound/outbound email involving a person's email address that it recognizes in Salesforce, so any employee looking at company activities can see what might be in the works for that client.

Cons: You get what you put into it -- and this is any CRM -- unless the company as a whole embraces it and people are mindful of data integrity

Salesforce- Pros: Custom Functionality, Integrations, Reporting Dashboards, Cons: A little clunky and $$$

A customer is created in SFDC when opportunity is closed won. We have templates and workflows for account management - onboarding, success milestones, QBRs, renewal reminders, etc.

We utilize Hubspot for weekly newsletter and general outbound campaigns to our customers.

We have integrated these two so information flows between.

Anomaly Detection / Mindbridge: We’re exploring tools that support continuous monitoring of financial transactions (e.g., inventory adjustments, journal entries, credit memos, disbursements) to help us identify anomalies earlier than our traditional periodic audits allow. We are a $20B company with 50+ different ERP systems globally (some data is mastered). Our goal is to enhance fraud detection and internal controls using modern, AI/ML analytics tools. We've started a vendor assessment process and MindBridge seems to be the only vendor that fairly fits the bill. I'd appreciate if someone can share any feedback/experience on the solution/vendor.

Why do you think there are so few mature AI-driven autonomous pentesting solutions on the market, and why does this topic seem to generate more hype than in-depth technical discussion?
