It has also introduced the ability to integrate with other contact center voice offerings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Salesforce has also continued to invest in further extending and deepening industry-specific offerings through native development, acquisitions, and the partner ecosystem. And through its<a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/stories\/salesforce-signs-definitive-agreement-to-acquire-vlocity\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> <strong>Vlocity acquisition<\/strong><\/a> in February 2020, Salesforce extended industry solutions for communications, media and entertainment, energy, utilities, insurance, health and government organizations, providing feature sets that enhanced and complemented industry capabilities and product knowledge, opened up new industry capabilities built on the Salesforce platform and provided customers with even more tools and expert guidance to digitally transform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Service Cloud responded to the COVID-19 pandemic<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This past year presented countless challenges and obstacles for everyone \u2014 from businesses and governments to support agents and managers \u2014 to continue delivering vital services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In response,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/press-releases\/2020\/05\/04\/salesforce-announces-work-com-to-help-businesses-and-communities-safely-reopen-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Salesforce launched Work.com<\/a> and<a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/press-releases\/2021\/01\/27\/vaccine-cloud-salesforce-update\/\"> <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/press-releases\/2021\/01\/27\/vaccine-cloud-salesforce-update\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Vaccine Cloud<\/a> \u2014 two solutions drawing on Service Cloud\u2019s capabilities that combined are key resources for<a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/stories\/vaccine-cloud-questions-answers-update\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> over 100<\/a> state and local governments, healthcare companies, and private sector businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/work.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Work.com<\/a> <\/strong>was designed to help business and community leaders around the world reopen safely, re-skill employees, and respond efficiently on the heels of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Now, as the world reopens, field service continues to undergo a massive transformation as in-person safety and new precautions become essential considerations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s still as important as ever for field technicians to have the right information and tools to get jobs completed the first time, on time, every time. For example, mobile technicians can reduce time on site by using<a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/products\/service-cloud\/features\/visual-remote-assistant\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> <strong>Visual Remote Assistant<\/strong><\/a>, which allows technicians and agents to see what the customer sees through video support, so they can resolve complex issues from anywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through the last year, Salesforce saw multiple customers from a variety of industries use Service Cloud to quickly pivot their operations during the pandemic.
