Multi-cloud implementation at DAIKIN

Success Story
The project
With over 70 employees in Germany, DAIKIN Applied Germany is an important European pillar of DAIKIN, the world‘s leading manufacturer of heat pumps, ventilation and air conditioning systems.
The goal was to optimize sales and service through a common platform. Salesforce as a cloud-based CRM platform was the solution. To customize the system, DAIKIN chose Salesfive because of its CPQ experience and shared location in Munich.
