The system replicates contacts to Salesforce leads based on score requirements, which you can adjust according to your specific needs. You can then work with the leads within Salesforce itself.

You can configure the replication in the Settings application in Integration -> Salesforce.com. To use the replication, you have to link the Kentico application with your Salesforce account.
