Design a System of Record, Architecture Diagrams Guide, Agentforce Demand Lagging Despite Trials
From the curator, Grzegorz Skaruz: Another week, another mix of "this changes everything" and "wait, did we just agree to that?" moments in the Salesforce world.I'm digging into a practical one first: designing a proper system of record across multiple objects, because scattered data isn't a "which field goes where" problem, it's an architecture problem. Speaking of architecture, there's also a solid refresh on diagramming tools and templates worth bookmarking if you spend more time explaining your org than building it. Read the whole note
Another week, another mix of "this changes everything" and "wait, did we just agree to that?" moments in the Salesforce world.I'm digging into a practical one first: designing a proper system of record across multiple objects, because scattered data isn't a "which field goes where" problem, it's an architecture problem. Speaking of architecture, there's also a solid refresh on diagramming tools and templates worth bookmarking if you spend more time explaining your org than building it. Then there's Agentforce. Adoption numbers look great on paper, but the gap between "tried it" and "committed to it" is getting harder to ignore.

An Oppenheimer survey found almost 90% of customers have tried or deployed it, yet nearly half are still stuck in testing or pilot mode. Trying it out isn't the same as fully adopting it, and right now, most companies aren't ready to go all in. The big question: when will they actually commit?

The SaaSpocalypse Didn't Kill Salesforce, But It Could Change It Forever
The so-called "SaaSpocalypse" hasn't killed off traditional software like everyone predicted - software stocks bounced back and big vendors like Salesforce are still posting solid numbers. Turns out AI isn't just making existing software pointless. But that doesn't mean nothing's changing. If AI agents start handling tasks across different systems without anyone needing to log into a dashboard, the whole SaaS setup could still get shaken up. The real question now: what happens to Salesforce and companies like it as AI reshapes how software actually gets used?

Collection Filter Criteria Resource in Salesforce Flow
Salesforce's upcoming Collection Filter Criteria Resource is a game-changer for Flow Builder. Unlike typical small admin tweaks, this one could seriously transform how automations are built. It's part of the Winter '27 preview, and it's set to make handling collections way easier and smarter than before.
