About the Сlient
With 65 million users and over 17 million wines, Vivino stands as the globe's premier wine app and marketplace that operates in 18 official markets, with plans to expand further in the coming years. Its mission is to empower individuals worldwide to savor the essence of wine to its fullest extent.
"Imagine you're at the supermarket, trying to choose the perfect wine for dinner with friends or your partner, or even just for yourself. That's where the idea for Vivino originated," – says Miguel Zurbano Sanchez, Director of Operational Excellence. – Heini Zachariassen and Theis Søndergaard, the Founders of Vivino, wanted to help people consistently pick the right wine for any occasion."
As the business grew, the opportunity to connect fulfillment partners and warehouses directly with customers arose, enabling customers to easily place orders for their favorite wines. This led to Vivino's evolution into a wine marketplace.
Vivino has established partnerships with various retailers and wineries to provide customers with the best wines and services. Recently, they launched a premium subscription in multiple countries, offering additional features to enhance the user experience.

Challenges
Vivino's longstanding experience with Salesforce used to be fraught with challenges. Despite the efforts, the company struggled to establish a robust architecture that fully harnessed Salesforce's potential.
As Vivino expanded its operations and integrated various departments into Salesforce, it became increasingly evident that its existing framework was inadequate for scaling and growth.
That's when Vivino started searching for a Salesforce Managed Service Provider to help Vivino discover the structural deficiencies within its Salesforce setup, navigate these technical limitations, and chart a path forward.
Solution
Twistellar evaluated Vivino's Salesforce architecture, focusing on identifying structural deficiencies and technical limitations hindering scalability and growth. This involved a thorough assessment of existing workflows, data structures, and system integrations within Salesforce Sales Cloud and Service Cloud.
Based on the findings from the audit, Twistellar provided expert Salesforce consultancy services to Vivino, offering strategic recommendations designed to address the identified challenges and optimize Salesforce usage.
Finally, Twistellar implemented a series of optimizations aimed at maximizing the efficiency and effectiveness of Vivino's Salesforce Org. This included refining workflows, automating manual tasks, optimizing system configurations, and enhancing reporting capabilities.
