Salesforce is the leading provider of cloud based software for enterprise and SMB customers. Founded in 1999, the company is considered to be one of the trailblazers for the SaaS model. While we all benefit from knowing how the story plays out over the next 20+ years, at the time the benefits of the SaaS model still had to be evangelized to customers. Luckily, the economics made sense for a lot of customers (especially smaller customers) to try the SaaS model, since the upfront costs and integration time were much lower than traditional on-premise software. This new software delivery model helped Salesforce take market share from software incumbents like SAP and Oracle (Siebel) over the years.
