Salesforce on Thursday (Jan. 13) debuted several new innovations and partnerships it will use to help companies support social commerce capabilities and connect data across platforms.
Salesforce will also import social commerce tools for China through Alibaba Cloud, giving merchants a better handle on order management, product information and shipping providers.
The company has also added PayPal as a checkout option through Salesforce Payments and debuted a business-to-business (B2B) wholesale app for retail built on Commerce Cloud by independent software vendor partner XCentium.
