“Supermetrics is a Bitter Experience! We can pull data from nearly any tool, schedule updates, manipulate data in Sheets, and push data back into our systems.”
Data Loader requires SOQL query knowledge and complex desktop setup procedures, presenting significant usability challenges despite its effectiveness for large-scale contact exports from Salesforce.
Here’s a more accessible alternative that provides similar power with dramatically improved usability and enhanced contact export capabilities.
Get user-friendly contact data extraction using Coefficient
Coefficient provides enterprise-grade contact data extraction through an intuitive interface that eliminates Data Loader’s complexity. You get point-and-click functionality instead of SOQL query writing, with direct integration into Google Sheets and Excel rather than desktop software requirements for Salesforce contact exports.
How to make it work
Step 1. Install Coefficient without desktop software.
Add the Coefficient extension directly to Google Sheets or Excel with no local installation required. Connect to Salesforce using your standard login credentials through a browser-based interface.
Step 2. Select contact fields visually.
Use “Objects & Fields” to choose specific contact fields from comprehensive lists without writing SOQL queries. Access related object fields through lookup relationships with automatic field mapping.
Step 3. Apply advanced filtering with AND/OR logic.
Build complex contact queries using dynamic cell references and multiple filter conditions. This provides more flexibility than Data Loader’s static query approach while remaining user-friendly.
Step 4. Enable automated contact sync.
Set up real-time contact data updates from hourly to weekly intervals. New contacts append automatically while preserving existing formulas and analysis, with built-in error handling and retry logic.
Bridge simplicity and enterprise power
Intuitive contact data extraction with enterprise-grade capabilities eliminates the technical barriers of Data Loader while providing enhanced automation and analysis features. Start extracting your contact data with simplified workflows.
