Salesforce was founded with a vision to redefine the Cloud CRM model. It sowed the seeds for a new era of cloud computing and brought in revolutionary changes to the concept of Customer Relationship Management. The USP of Salesforce is its presence across-the-board. It competes with Oracle, SAP, and Microsoft in the top-market. While these three competitors match Salesforce’s features, Salesforce offers far superior and flexible solutions with value for your money.
