Is Service Cloud now called Agentforce Service?

Salesforce's homepage now brands the line Agentforce Service (formerly Service Cloud), while the name Service Cloud is still used across the pricing page and edition names. Buyers will encounter both names for the same product line.

Does Salesforce Service Cloud support Arabic?

Yes. Salesforce Help documents Arabic as an end-user language and RTL layout as the default in Lightning Experience, with documented limitations. AlooChat's advantage is not availability but Arabic-first design: agents tuned for tone, Gulf dialects, and reply length, and regional implementation teams.

What does Service Cloud cost?

Salesforce publishes per-user pricing billed annually by edition: Starter Suite at $25, Pro Suite at $100, Enterprise at $175, Unlimited at $350, and Agentforce 1 Service at $550 per user per month, with add-ons priced separately and a 30-day trial.

Executive summary

Salesforce has the strongest Arabic story of any platform in this set: Salesforce Help documents Arabic as an end-user language and right-to-left layout as the default in Lightning Experience, with published limitations. So the honest difference here is design rather than availability — AlooChat's agents are built Arabic-first, with Gulf dialect, tone and reply length you configure. Service Cloud also covers ground AlooChat simply does not, namely field service and a contact centre with voice; the counterweight is scale and cost, with per-user editions from $25 to $550 and add-ons priced separately.

Platform overviews

What each platform actually is, in neutral terms, before the detail.

AlooChat

AlooChat is a customer engagement platform built for businesses across the GCC. It brings WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook Messenger, Telegram, website chat and email into one inbox, answers with Arabic-first AI agents that hand over to your team with full context, and adds booking, tickets, automations and analytics — with implementation support from a regional team.

Salesforce Service Cloud

Salesforce Service Cloud is Salesforce's customer service line built on its CRM platform, uniting case management, omni-channel routing, knowledge, contact centre voice and digital channels, field service and employee service with Agentforce AI agents. Salesforce now brands the line Agentforce Service on its homepage, while Service Cloud remains in use across the pricing page and edition names. Pricing is per user by edition, billed annually.

Which one fits you?

Who should choose AlooChat?

Salesforce Help documents Arabic as an end-user language and RTL layout as the default in Lightning Experience, with documented limitations — the strongest Arabic story in this set. AlooChat's difference is not availability but design: agents built Arabic-first, with Gulf dialects, tone, and reply length you configure.
One inbox across WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook Messenger, Telegram, website live chat, and email, with WhatsApp Calls and booking inside WhatsApp and web chat.
Published plans with unlimited AI agents and unlimited team accounts and guided onboarding — Service Cloud is priced per user by edition from $25 up to $550, with add-ons priced separately.
GCC payment providers Tap, Hesabe, MyFatoorah, and Ziina alongside Stripe, with implementation, training, and migration assistance from teams in Kuwait, the UAE, Bahrain, and Egypt.

Who should choose Salesforce Service Cloud?

Enterprise CRM depth: case management on the same platform as sales, industry clouds, and a shared data layer.
Field service and a contact centre with voice — AlooChat offers WhatsApp Calls but has no field-service module and no voice contact centre.
Agentforce autonomous agents spanning customers, reps, supervisors, field teams, and employees, up to the Agentforce 1 Service edition.

Pros and considerations

AlooChat

Strengths

Arabic-first AI agents with configurable tone, reply length and Gulf dialects — not a translation layer bolted onto an English product.
Unlimited AI agents and unlimited team accounts on every plan, with no per-resolution AI fees, so cost stays predictable as automation grows.
GCC payment providers — Tap, Hesabe, MyFatoorah and Ziina alongside Stripe — so payment links work with the gateways regional businesses already use.
Implementation and customer success teams based in the region, with guided onboarding, training and migration assistance included.

Considerations

AlooChat has no voice contact centre. Teams that need inbound phone queues and IVR should keep a dedicated telephony platform alongside it.
A Shopify integration is announced but not yet available; WooCommerce is supported today and other stores connect through the API or custom tools.
AlooChat does not publish a public documentation portal. Knowledge sources train the AI agents rather than powering a customer-facing help centre.
The integration catalogue is smaller than the largest incumbents'. REST API access sits on the Enterprise plan for teams building their own connections.

Salesforce Service Cloud

Strengths

Arabic is documented as an end-user language with right-to-left layout as the Lightning Experience default — the strongest Arabic position among the platforms compared here.
Enterprise CRM depth: case management on the same platform as sales, industry clouds and a shared data layer.
Field service and a contact centre with voice — neither of which AlooChat offers in any form.
Agentforce autonomous agents spanning customers, reps, supervisors, field teams and employees, up to the Agentforce 1 Service edition.

Considerations

Per-user editions run from $25 to $550 a month billed annually, with add-ons priced separately on top.
Arabic here is interface language and layout support; tone and Gulf-dialect control for AI replies is a different capability and is not documented.
Editions plus separately priced add-ons make total cost harder to forecast than a single published plan.
The breadth of editions and modules is aimed at enterprises and large service organisations; smaller teams may buy far more platform than they need.

Migrating to AlooChat

The four steps we run with every team that moves across, supported by our regional team.

1
Map your channels and volumes
List every channel you answer on today and the monthly conversation volume per channel. This determines which AlooChat plan fits and what to connect first.
2
Bring your knowledge across
Point AlooChat at your website content and upload your existing macros, canned replies and help articles. The AI agent learns your products, policies and FAQs from them in minutes.
3
Reconnect channels and integrations
Connect WhatsApp Business and your social channels, then your CRM, store or internal systems through the available integrations, webhooks or the API.
4
Run both in parallel, then switch
Route a share of traffic to AlooChat first, compare resolution and response times against your current tool, and cut over once the numbers hold. Our regional team runs this with you.
