We’re Salesforce, the Customer Company.

You could say we've always been the customer company.

From the day we opened our doors, focus on our customers drove our every decision. It fueled our growth and powered our customers' success. We develop the technology, the partnerships, and the communities that help companies connect with customers. So that every company can become a customer company.

The world will change, but customer focus remains.

As sure as the sun will rise, there will be new technologies, new social trends, new things that matter right now. But the customer will still be the customer. Discerning. Demanding. Eager to be wowed. Our goal is to help you meet them where they are, so that they stay forever loyal to your company, come what may.

We build bridges between companies and customers.

Businesses succeed when they create meaningful connection. Our mission is to deliver it.

HISTORY

A jump to the cloud.
A leap of trust.

The cloud was born.

In 1999, four Salesforce founders, working shoulder to shoulder in a small San Francisco apartment, launched a customer relationship management (CRM) system with a groundbreaking twist. All the software and critical customer data would be hosted on the internet and made available as a subscription service. This pioneering “software as a service,” or SaaS, model quickly spread across the technology industry.

Cultivating trust.

Early adopters of our cloud-based model took a significant leap of faith. There was only one formula for earning their trust — that is, by building trusted relationships. Over the decades, our product has grown in scale and sophistication.

We now provide essential services to many of the world’s biggest and most critical businesses, governments, and organizations. Trust is an ever more valuable commodity. Relationships are gold.

CULTURE

We are Trailblazers.

We are family.

We’re not a typical company. And that’s by design. We call our community of Salesforce employees, customers, and partners "Trailblazers." We're a one-of-a-kind family. Trailblazers around the world reach across roles, companies, and industries to help one another learn, grow, and succeed.

We’re serious when it comes to driving customer success and creating positive change in the world, but we have an awful lot of fun together as we do it.
