VRP Insight from Dreamforce 2025 — Salesforce Unveils the Agentic Enterprise, Transforming Slack, Service, and Analytics

At Dreamforce 2025, Salesforce introduced a bold new vision: the Agentic Enterprise, where artificial intelligence (AI) doesn’t replace people but amplifies their capabilities. At the core of this transformation is Agentforce 360, a unified platform connecting people, agents, and data on a secure, scalable infrastructure.

Slack as the Agentic OS: The New Digital Workspace

Salesforce reimagined Slack as Agentic OS, positioning it as the next-generation operating system for enterprise collaboration.

• Embedded Agentforce Apps: Sales, IT Service, HR Service, and Tableau Next are now accessible directly within Slack channels.
• Channel Expert Agent: Provides real-time answers and contextual data.
• Enhanced Slackbot: Summarizes conversations, generates meeting notes, and assists with text creation.
• Open AI Ecosystem: Through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), third-party AI models (Anthropic, OpenAI, and others) can be integrated seamlessly.

This evolution turns Slack into a hub where work, data, and AI agents converge.

Agentforce for Service: Voice, IT, and Command Centers

Salesforce expanded Agentforce into customer service and IT operations:

• Agentforce Voice: AI-powered voice agents deliver 24/7 support across phone channels.
• Service Command Center: A centralized dashboard for monitoring agent activity, managing events, and ensuring operational continuity.
• Agentforce IT Service: Always-on IT support agents resolve issues directly in Slack, replacing traditional ticketing systems with interactive, real-time assistance.

Together, these innovations redefine service delivery, making support faster, smarter, and more human-centric.

Revenue, Analytics, and Partner Ecosystem

Salesforce extended Agentforce into revenue management, analytics, and partnerships:

• Revenue Management: AI agents automate quoting, invoicing, and subscription processes, while optimizing commercial scenarios.
• Tableau Integration: A semantic layer allows agents to contextualize data, generate insights, and embed analytics directly into Slack channels.
• Partner Cloud: A new platform for managing partner ecosystems, shifting from traditional PRM to agent-driven collaboration and automated partner interactions.

This unified approach ensures that sales, finance, analytics, and partnerships all benefit from agentic automation.

Governance and Secure Agent Interactions

As autonomous agents proliferate, Salesforce emphasized the need for management and governance:

• Agent-to-Agent (A2A) Policies: Frameworks for secure, controlled workflows between agents.
• MuleSoft Agent Fabric: Enhanced integration for managing agent-system interactions with enterprise-grade security.

Governance ensures that the Agentic Enterprise remains reliable, compliant, and trustworthy.

Salesforce as Customer Zero

Salesforce itself is the first adopter of Agentforce 360. AI agents are already embedded across sales, IT, and support teams, boosting productivity and freeing employees to focus on strategic initiatives. As Marc Benioff noted, every Salesforce employee now collaborates with agents daily — a living proof of the Agentic Enterprise in action.
