Quip for Salesforce Winter '20 Release is here!

By Arnab Bose, Sophia Westwood

When Quip for Salesforce launched in the Spring ’19 Salesforce release, modern productivity apps became part of CRM for the first time ever. This brought mission-critical processes like account plans, close plans, and case escalations into the context of the Salesforce platform, rather than stuck in email threads, chat storms, and multiple file versions.

Over the last six months, we’ve heard so many success stories from our Trailblazer customers who have embraced Quip for Salesforce. For example, TaskUs does 100% of their strategic account plans in Quip. The company has decreased their time to close by 25% using Sales Cloud, Einstein Analytics and Quip for Salesforce.

We are equally inspired by all the product feedback on how we can continue to innovate. In the Winter ’20 release, we’re delivering a ton of functionality based on customer input, all aimed at helping customers maximize the value of their CRM investment.

Salesforce Data Integration Enhancements

With the Winter ’20 release, we’ve added several features that make it easy for teams to discuss insights and collaborate on the Salesforce data they interact with every day.

  • Log a Call in Quip: Log a Salesforce call directly from the Quip workspace, making it easier for reps to add customer information to Salesforce and for admins to report on it. Read the support article.
  • List Views in Quip: Add list views with filterable data that is bi-directionally synced with Salesforce. Check out the release notes.
  • Salesforce Live Reports Enhancement: Add reports that pull in live Salesforce data with a simple @mention, making it easy to share and discuss all the opportunities associated with an account.
