  9. The Truth Behind Salesforce.com • You do not want to purchase the wrong version of software! SFDC will call and try to get you to upgrade. • Support – 48 hours SLA, need to pay 15% of software cost to meet our SLA • Limits on API calls, Tabs, Objects • Sandbox needed to upgrade to Enterprise • Data storage 1G under 50 users, over 50 users 20MB • 500mb is 1500 per year • Can be easily discounted 60% • Max 5 custom apps • Deployment partner varies greatly - smaller deals tend to have smaller partners and/or off shore the work

  10. Questions Customers Should be Asking Salesforce.com • We are already considering Inside View and Marketo as Appexchange apps to integrate with Salesforce.com. Is there a limit to the number of apps Professional Edition can accommodate? How about custom applications? • With the promo we are receiving, what happens if we need to add one of the features we did not choose, profiles page layouts? • Are there any additional expenses we may incur if/when we start adding features and functionality. What happens when we exceed data storage, file storage, tabs, custom objects?

  11. More Questions Customers Should be Asking Salesforce.com • Are we able to get a backup of my data to download:  daily or bi-weekly, and if so, is there a cost? • Do we receive a sandbox with SFDC professional, if not is there a charge or do we need to upgrade?

  12. Things You Need to Consider When Evaluating Salesforce.com Version-creep • The surprise of discovering the software functionality you need is actually only available in the higher up, and much more costly editions. When SFDC is in a competitive situation, they will sell you the least expensive version that “does the job” then will force you to upgrade to the correct version at double or triple the cost.

  13. Things You Need to Consider When Evaluating Salesforce.com Storage • Organizations that need more storage capacity are subject to Salesforce.com’sadditional storage costs which can be as much as$250/gigabyte/month. Companies with large data requirements spend thousands annually in storage. Tabs, Customer Objects and API calls can be expensive. • As you bump up against your allotted limits of tabs, custom objects and API calls you will be asked to move to the next, more expensive edition or buy items a la carte, it adds up quickly!

  14. Things You Need to Consider When Evaluating Salesforce.com Support • Salesforce.com standard support is email only with a 48 hour SLA! The support ticket will most likely be responded to by an inexperienced contractor. You can increase your SLA’s by paying either 15% or 25% of your license costsdepending on the level you choose.

  15. Don’t be Fooled by Force.com • When Salesforce.com is in a competitive situation they may try to sell you Force.comor an ecosystem partner may try and sell their application built on Force.complatform,this is not a full CRM license. • Force.com is designed for users who need access to custom apps but not to standard CRM functionality. These users are not entitled to some user permissions and standard apps, including standard tabs and objects such as forecasts and opportunities.

  16. Don’t be Fooled by Force.com • Since Force.comlicenses have access to all custom objects, custom objects replace the out of the box Salesforce.comfunctionality. You now have a custom application expensive to change and maintain.
