Not all solutions grow with your business. Some can cripple the scalability of your Salesforce org and lead to performance issues, poor user experience, sky-high maintenance cost and security vulnerabilities.

Welcome to the world of Salesforce anti-patterns. They start as quick fixes, smart shortcuts, or seemingly efficient workarounds. But over time? They quietly snowball into inefficiencies, maintenance nightmares, and scalability headaches. Salesforce is a powerhouse of innovation, packed with features designed to simplify, automate, and accelerate business growth.

But here’s the catch—when not implemented thoughtfully, these very features can backfire! Over-customization, improper data modeling, ignoring security best practices, or patching problems instead of solving them can leave you with a system that’s clunky, expensive, and impossible to scale.

In this eBook, we’ll break down the common Salesforce anti-patterns, why they happen, and—most importantly—how to fix them before they cost you big.
