Shamrock CRM – Salesforce.com Consulting, Implementations and Web Development

Adoption Manager – Free mobile adoption app

As a bit of a hobby project, I created a pretty handy mobile application for Salesforce.com Adoption that can be downloaded from the AppExchange that can compliment my other Adoption app that I created.

Instead of buying new licenses when you have a new user, try deactivating users that haven’t logged in within the past 30/60/90/120 days. Why not just deactivate one of the users that you gave an account that has NEVER logged in before?

Adoption Manager allows you quickly to see who hasn’t logged in in the longest time (or never) and deactivate them. It also allows you to reactivate any old user in the system or create a brand new user. Search through the entire database if you do not want to filter through lists and know a specific user to activate/deactivate.

What makes this even better is that this app can be accessed via the browser or your MOBILE browser. iOS/Android apps are coming soon, but this won’t hold you up, because of this mobile optimized app, using OAuth to securely login to Salesforce.com.

Manage your users quickly and more effectively on the go!

Take a look at my overview of AdoptionMax Here

With Adoption Max, you can send regular notifications to users and their managers/adoption champions based on certain levels of inactivity. Notify users by email, chatter posts, tasks, reports. Customize when to send messages, to whom, and how they should be sent. All of these notifications are customizable, reportable, and automatic. Turn the app on and forget about it. All notifications will be handled by the app.

The best way to obtain user buy in is to establish a level of accountability. Users MUST know what you expect from them and they must be held accountable for their successes/failures. Adoption Max will provide them and their managers will visibility into their system usage or lack thereof.

We suggest establishing “Adoption Champions.” These would be power users that are responsible for the adoption success of a certain group of users, such as a region, an office, a product line, etc. These adoption champions would be assigned in Adoption Max and would have their own adoption reports to monitor. They would communicate with users to encourage usage of the system and regularly report to management about the level of adoption progress. e.g. A European Adoption Champion might be based in London and be responsible for all users in Europe. They would encourage usage, provide tips & training, help users when needed, and escalate to user management if there is lack of performance. The user, the user adoption champion, and the managers should all be held accountable for the adoption success. Adoption Max makes this VERY visible.
