What is Custom Objects?

Custom Objects, in the context of software development and database management, refer to user-defined data structures or objects that extend the capabilities of a system beyond its built-in, standard objects. These objects allow developers to model and store data specific to their business needs and processes. Custom objects are commonly used to represent entities like projects, customers, orders, or any other domain-specific concepts. They typically consist of custom fields (attributes) and may have associated custom logic (methods or rules) to define their behavior. Platforms like Salesforce heavily utilize custom objects to allow businesses to tailor the platform to their specific CRM needs.
