A few days ago a friend of mine told me her office is getting rid of Salesforce. When I asked her to explain why, the long and short of it came down to data hoarding. Some of her office’s sales associates were refusing to use Salesforce because they didn’t want lead and contact information available to the company; the idea being that this tactic created better job security. Whether or not this is a solid plan for sales reps is another blog topic altogether, but the idea of data hoarding made me realize another benefit the cloud brings to companies that I hadn’t realized before.
