Community Cloud is a social platform from Salesforce.com that is designed to connect and facilitate communication among an organization’s employees, partners and customers.

If the company had a million customers and had to face a million requests a month its satisfying to present the customer with an updated database.
The solution to the problem is given by Salesforce in form of Community cloud that gives all the customers access to the Salesforce data so that they themselves can reach the product list and can also filter them as per their significance.
Apart from this, the business user can manage the access level of all the customers as per their association with the business.
