AgentExchange solution types

Key Takeaway

To pick the right AgentExchange listing, start with the business need, then match it to what each solution type does and when it fits.

AgentExchange is the official Salesforce marketplace, where Salesforce partners offer prebuilt solutions and expert services that extend an org. Instead of building everything from scratch, an app builder can install a solution or bring in a consultant.

Solutions and consultants

AgentExchange has two kinds of listings: solutions and consultants. A solution plugs into Salesforce and extends its functionality. Solution types include:

  • Agents
  • Apps
  • Components
  • Bolt solutions
  • Flow solutions
  • Slack integrations

A consultant is a Salesforce professional who builds and implements custom solutions for specific clouds or industries. Consultants are specialists with deep industry knowledge and proven Salesforce expertise. They help customers who lack the in-house resources or solution knowledge to reach their goals alone. Consultants show their expertise by keeping their Salesforce certifications current and building portfolios of successful projects.

To choose a type, start with the need.

If you want something that integrates quickly with Salesforce...

A solution such as an app or agent is probably the best choice.

If you want help building a custom solution for a complex business problem...

A consultant is the better fit.
