Salesforce1 Tour, Boston

By Denis Pombriant on April 3, 2014

Relentless might not be the first word you associate with Salesforce.com but in retrospect, it fits very well.  Other words might include logical and well planned.  President and Vice Chairman Keith Block came to Boston this week with a troupe of “forcers” to deliver the company’s post Dreamforce message to an appreciative audience.  Block’s message […]

Salesforce1: Employee Productivity and Mobile Experiences

By Michael Fauscette on January 9, 2014

At Dreamforce last Fall, Salesforce introduced it’s new platform offering, Salesforce1.

World Tour

World Tour

The Class of ‘14

By Denis Pombriant on November 20, 2013

The story of this year’s Dreamforce might best be told through the partner community and AppExchange and that makes it a story about the platform.  Appropriately enough, Salesforce teed up the platform topic in Chairman and CEO, Marc Benioff’s keynote and the press conference immediately following it on Tuesday in which he announced Salesforce 1.
