By James Governor on November 6, 2014

I recently had a jam-packed week in San Francisco, attending Dreamforce and running IOT at Scale. For the one or two of you that weren’t actually at Dreamforce, it’s kind of hard to sum up a conference with so much stuff going on. With that in mind it’s probably best not to try. I will […]

Platform Native

Platform Native

By Denis Pombriant on October 20, 2014

A number of Salesforce AppExchange partners including Apttus, Kenandy and ServiceMax formed an alliance called the Force United Consortium back in April but I hadn’t had the chance to talk to anyone about it. It’s a cool idea and a way to differentiate a partner that makes good use of the Salesforce1 Platform. I got […]

Dreaming of the next generation of clouds

Dreaming of the next generation of clouds

By Vinnie Mirchandani on October 20, 2014

Dreamforce this week had an even more festive feel than ever. Pennant fever gripped the town as the Giants played October ball. The Beach Boys sounded as youthful as ever during Benioff’s keynote. The many school kids invited in the keynote audience and Hillary Clinton’s talk of babies provided an even more youthful and optimistic […]

Dreamforce 2014: Announcements, Paradigm Shift, Crowds

Dreamforce 2014: Announcements, Paradigm Shift, Crowds

By Denis Pombriant on October 17, 2014

Dreamforce has always been about many things happening at once — a three-ring circus in a good way. There are announcements about applications, platforms, philanthropy, entertainment and, importantly, parties. This year there was all of that and then some I was a guest with a ringside seat. Since most of the product announcements came out […]

Dreamforce 2014: Converging on cloud, apps, mobile, analytics, and community

By Dion Hinchcliffe on October 15, 2014

The vision Salesforce has for market-facing engagement is the right one: Tear down data, app, and user experience silos between marketing, sales, operations, and support. But does their cloud measure up to this vision yet?

Dreamforce Preview

Dreamforce Preview

By Denis Pombriant on October 7, 2014

No need to speculate about all of the Salesforce announcements expected to emanate from Dreamforce next week in San Francisco. The company is providing an assist to the news starved — and the news weary — ahead of the event.
