Salesforce Industries is a suite of enterprise software solutions built on the Salesforce platform that are tailored to the specific needs of various industries. Salesforce Industries offers "industry clouds" that come with pre-built data models, workflows, and business processes, as well as industry-specific functionalities and features.

Salesforce Industries emerged from Salesforce's 2020 acquisition of Vlocity. This acquisition brought Vlocity's industry-specific cloud solutions and their underlying technology, now known as OmniStudio, into the Salesforce platform.

Salesforce offers a number of industries, including Communications Cloud, Public Sector Solutions, Health Cloud, Consumer Goods Cloud and more.For a complete list of Industries Salesforce offers, see this documentation on Salesforce Industries
