Before the launch of Salesforce Lightning, Salesforce Classic served as the main interface of the Salesforce CRM solution. When compared, Salesforce Lightning offers better features to businesses than Salesforce Classic, especially in terms of enhanced productivity, a customizable user interface, and an accelerated pace of app development. It also offers more actionable insights to the user using intuitive charts, dashboards, and reports.

Businesses around the world are switching from Salesforce Classic to Lightning to leverage the numerous benefits offered by the latter’s UI. It is anticipated that Salesforce Classic will be slowly phased out, so this migration has recently gained prominence.

However, the migration from Classic to Lightning requires businesses to have a well-thought-out strategy and expertise  for a smoother transition. This is where Salesforce Lightning Consultants can help as they are qualified to design, build, and customize the Salesforce Lightning CRM platform. Their expertise aids organizations in bringing about the migration or the first-time implementation of Salesforce Classic to Salesforce Lightning.
