  2. Salesforce, the world's most popular customer relationship management (CRM) company, is featured by some of the most amazing stories in Silicon Valley. Undoubtedly, the evolution of the CRM giant has been a story of vision, creativity, dedication, and entrepreneurial spirit. In 1999, Salesforce started in a one-bedroom flat and is now a 40,000 people company. Let us dive into some of the most surprising facts about this CRM giant we now call Salesforce. info@cloudanalogy.com +1(415)830-3899 cloud.analogy

  3. 1. A Visionary Founder Salesforce was founded by Marc Benioff, who is a visionary technology entrepreneur and credited with pioneering the concept of modern cloud computing. At the age of 12, Benioff started knocking door-to-door to repair antennas at the home of people. At 15, Benioff managed to sell his first bit of computing software and managed to pay his college fees through software royalties developed by him.

  4. 2. BoldMarketing Schemes On-premise servers used to reign over the technological world back when Salesforce was founded. This made the task of Benioff and his team to convince the world that cloud-based technology was the way forward more difficult. The fact that Benioff had a team of fewer than 10 people at that time made things even worse for him. info@cloudanalogy.com +1(415)830-3899 cloud.analogy

  5. 3.SalesforceTM & Amazon During the initial days when Benioff was contemplating pushing cloud computing beyond the boundaries, he had the vision to deliver it cheaply through the web. This concept was based primarily on the usability aspect of Amazon. Both Salesforce and Amazon have one thing in common - an easy-to-use interface and taking clear advantage of a menu of tabs. info@cloudanalogy.com +1(415)830-3899 cloud.analogy

  6. 4. The App Store Salesforce launched the AppExchange (the enterprise cloud marketplace with ready-to-install apps, solutions, and consultants) back in 2005, much before the Apple App Store was launched in 2008. Benioff gifted the term “App Store” to Steve Jobs in 2008 as a gesture for all his support over the years. Lt.

  7. 5. Oracle Vs. SalesforceTM Salesforce and Oracle, or should we say Marc Benioff (the CEO and Founder of Salesforce) and Larry Ellison (CEO and Founder of Oracle), have a long history together. Benioff worked under the wing of Ellison at Oracle and became the youngest Vice President ever at the age of 25. He wanted to explore other ventures, and Ellison went on to support his ideas. Interestingly, Ellison even offered a 6-month sabbatical to Benioff and invested the first $2M into Salesforce and joined its board of directors.
