Integrating Salesforce with ALM & DevOps Tools

Efficient collaboration between sales, support, and development is crucial for business success today. Customer inquiries, feature requests, or support tickets often originate in Salesforce – but the actual implementation takes place in specialized ALM or DevOps tools such as PTC Windchill RV&S, Jira, or Azure DevOps. Without smart integration, this quickly leads to media breaks, manual duplication of work, and a lack of transparency.

With agosense.symphony, you can seamlessly connect Salesforce with your development toolchain. Incidents or change requests are automatically transferred to Windchill RV&S and other systems, including status updates and relevant information in both directions. The result: faster response times, better collaboration, and complete traceability – without compromise.

Salesforce is one of the world’s leading CRM platforms, helping companies manage customer relationships, optimize sales processes, and handle service requests efficiently. In many organizations, Salesforce is the central system for customer interactions – but implementing changes or fixing issues happens in other tools. This is where integration comes into play.


Typical Use Cases for Salesforce Integration


1. Integrating Salesforce with Atlassian Jira or MS Azure DevOps – From Incident to Bug


A customer reports an issue via support, which is recorded in Salesforce as an incident.

  • Without integration: The support agent must manually transfer the error to Jira or Azure DevOps, which is time-consuming and error-prone.
  • With agosense.symphony:
    • The incident is automatically created as a bug in Jira or as a work item in Azure DevOps.
    • All relevant details such as description, priority, and attachments are included.
    • Status changes (e.g., “In Progress,” “Resolved”) and comments are synchronized bidirectionally.


Benefit: Support and development work in their preferred tools without losing information.


2. From Feature Request in Salesforce to Requirement in Windchill RV&S


A customer requests a new feature, documented in Salesforce as an opportunity or feature request.

  • With agosense.symphony:
    • The request is automatically created as a requirement in Windchill RV&S.
    • Links to test cases and change requests are established directly in the ALM system.
    • Progress and status are reported back to Salesforce, keeping sales informed at all times.


Benefit: Transparency for all stakeholders and complete traceability from customer request to implementation.


3. Multi-Tool Scenario: Integrating Salesforce with Windchill RV&S and Codebeamer


Complex projects often require multiple systems:

  • A change request starts in Salesforce.
  • It is created as a requirement in Windchill RV&S and simultaneously synchronized with Codebeamer for test management.
  • Comments, attachments, and status updates flow across all systems.


Benefit: No manual interfaces, no data loss – ideal for companies with hybrid toolchains.
