Salesforce.com: Partners Need To Embrace Cloud, Mobile

/**/ /**/

Salesforce.com, ranked by Forbes magazine as one of the most innovative companies in the world for four consecutive years, is asking partners to keep up with its rapid pace of change.

’One of the things that’s most exciting is the amount of innovation. The amount of innovation is truly intoxicating,’ said Executive Vice President of Worldwide Alliances and Channels Tyler Prince.

Prince said Salesforce’s ISV partners have boosted the company’s ecosystem, and called the current pace of innovation ’unprecedented.’ He stressed how crucial it is for partners to keep up with the ’accelerating change’ Salesforce is pushing, particularly around its new analytics cloud platform.

’Partners are adjusting to that [pace] to help their customers get the value out of that increase in that set of solutions,’ Prince said.

Prince said he felt ’super excited’ about the cloud platform’s release and had this message for partners:

’Embrace the new world, the world is all about cloud, all about social, it’s all about mobile, and it’s all about data science and analytics,’ he said.
