SAN FRANCISCO, July 28, 2015 — Salesforce, the Customer Success Platform and world’s #1 CRM company, today announced that it has been positioned as a Leader in the 2015 Magic Quadrant for Mobile Application Development Platforms.

According to Gartner: \u201cThe mobile app development platform (MADP) market offers tools, technologies, components and services that enable enterprise IT developers to create mobile apps for customers, partners and employees. A MADP enables an enterprise to design, develop, test, deploy, distribute, analyze and manage a portfolio of cross-platform mobile apps on a range of devices running Android and iOS, and addressing the requirements of diverse use cases including external-facing and internal-facing scenarios.\u201d
\u201cThe Salesforce1 Platform enables IT to develop innovative mobile apps fast, and build deeper relationship with their customers, employees, and partners,\u201d said Tod Nielsen, executive vice president, Salesforce1 Platform. \u201cWe believe that our position in the Magic Quadrant is further validation that Salesforce provides the trusted app development platform for innovative companies around the world.\u201d
