Dynamic web portals connected to Salesforce deliver personalized, self-service experiences that boost customer satisfaction and operational efficiency. Learn what dynamic portals are, key features, and how tools like Titan simplify building Experience Cloud portals.
What is a dynamic web portal?
Dynamic web portals are interactive websites that adapt content and features to each user in real time by leveraging CRM data, server-side logic, and client-side scripting. Unlike static sites, portals personalize dashboards, recommendations, and workflows based on user profiles and behavior.
Core features
- Personalized content and recommendations driven by Salesforce CRM data.
- Secure login and user authentication to protect sensitive information.
- Interactive UI elements such as chatbots, feedback forms, and live updates.
- Self-service capabilities for support requests, order tracking, and profile updates.
- Real-time synchronization with backend systems to ensure up-to-date information.
Common portal types and use cases
Dynamic portals are versatile and suit many scenarios. Typical examples include:
- Customer service portals — ticketing, order status, knowledge base access.
- E-commerce portals — product catalogs, personalized recommendations, checkout workflows.
- Employee intranets — internal resources, policy documents, onboarding flows.
- Education platforms — learner progress, tailored content, assessments.
Why integrate portals with Salesforce?
Connecting your portal to Salesforce centralizes customer data and automates common processes. Benefits include improved customer satisfaction, reduced manual work, better analytics, and synchronized records across channels — all of which drive faster response times and stronger relationships.
