Analysis

Customer edges out Salesforce modestly on homepage messaging, 78 to 73. Here's where the gap comes from.

Customer is clearer about what it does (59 vs 43 on clarity). Salesforce has stronger CTAs (85 vs 60). Customer triggers decision paralysis with 8 competing CTAs, while Salesforce keeps it focused at 18. Salesforce is better at saying who it's for (ICP: 38 vs 15). Salesforce's targeting is decent, while Customer's is generic.

Both sites use the "Platform / Ecosystem" positioning archetype — they're competing on the same narrative, which means differentiation has to come from execution, not framing.
