However, for highly customized Salesforce orgs with many AppExchange apps and integration, it will be better to migrate to a new org completely.

- Create a roadmap for success: The Financial Services cloud has a lot of functionality. We always recommend you start with a relatively simple implementation and introduce functionality to the team over time. Getting your organization involved will allow you to prioritize functionality that delivers value to them and ensure they are involved in the success of the rollout.
- Work with certified Financial Services Cloud Consultants: FSC has a lot of advanced functionality. It’s important you work with consultants who are Salesforce certified in the cloud.
