When Salesforce acquired Vlocity in 2020, they began the process of migrating its core tools — OmniScript, DataRaptor, FlexCards, and Integration Procedures — into a unified framework called OmniStudio. For organizations already using Vlocity, or those evaluating Salesforce Industries Cloud, understanding what changed is critical for making the right implementation decisions.

What is OmniStudio?

OmniStudio is the low-code development framework that powers Salesforce Industries Cloud. It is the successor to the Vlocity OmniChannel framework and includes the same core components — OmniScript, DataRaptor, FlexCards, and Integration Procedures — but with improved performance, tighter Salesforce platform integration, and support for both Salesforce Classic and Lightning Experience.

Key Differences: Vlocity vs OmniStudio

Feature	Classic Vlocity	OmniStudio
Deployment	Managed package	Native Salesforce (no managed package required)
Performance	Standard	Improved with native compilation
Integration	Vlocity namespace	Salesforce omnistudio namespace
Licensing	Vlocity license required	Included in Industries Cloud licenses

Migration Path: From Vlocity to OmniStudio

Salesforce provides a migration tool to convert existing Vlocity components to OmniStudio. The migration path is well-documented and most components convert cleanly. However, organizations with heavy customizations or complex DataRaptor integrations should work with a certified implementation partner to ensure a smooth transition.

Should You Migrate to OmniStudio Now?

Salesforce has announced that the classic Vlocity managed package will be deprecated in favor of OmniStudio. While no hard end-of-life date has been confirmed, the direction is clear: OmniStudio is the future. Organizations should begin planning their migration now to:

• Ensure continued support and updates from Salesforce
• Take advantage of performance improvements
• Access new features available only in OmniStudio
• Align with Salesforce’s long-term roadmap
