Consumer electronics is one of the fastest-changing industries in the world. From smartphones and laptops to smart TVs and wearables, the market is driven by rapid product launches, complex supply chains, and demanding customers.
The challenges are massive:
- Warranty claims run into millions annually.
- Customers expect real-time support across channels.
- Dealer and service partner networks span the globe.
- Regulatory compliance (safety, recycling, data protection) is getting stricter.
Traditional CRMs struggle with scale and complexity. Salesforce Service Cloud + Field Service Lightning (FSL) provide electronics OEMs with a single platform to manage warranties, digitize service, and ensure predictive servicing for devices and equipment.
