> I have never used nor worked at an organization that is built on top of Salesforce.

You probably do. Salesforce has all kinds of different products from Slack to Mulesoft and Tableau. Salesforce starts their pipeline by solving one problem, making that work well from a business ROI perspective, and then they pitch you on another and another and another with package pricing. This is basically the Oracle model and how Larry got his blood money.



Benioff started his career at Oracle and was a prodigy there - becoming the youngest ever VP or something like that. It's not surprising if his playbook is inspired by Larry's.


Oh yes. I definitely use WorkDay. Interesting, never knew WorkDay is created by Salesforce.

We are a very M$ bias company, hence, no slack.


Workday isn't owned by Salesforce.


That was my fault, I don't know why I thought that, but they got it from me.


Workday is not Salesforce. The rest, yes.


You're right! My mistake.
