Salesforce began to intervene in content management business

After making a series of acquisitions, Salesforce.com introduced its integrated product Salesforce Rypple and the product--site.com for content delivery in multiple channels. This move Salesforce began to intervene in the content management business.

Marc Benioff, Salesforce.com's chief executive, decided to start selling the two new products before the San Francisco Cloudforce user Conference.

Salesforce Rypple is a social network-style performance management software. Salesforce initially acquired Rypple in response to a series of mergers of its rivals Oracle acquisition Taleo and SAP SuccessFactors as an opportunity to enter the human resources management software market. In addition, enterprise management software supplier Workday also gradually show a certain degree of competitiveness, and for Oracle and SAP, workday is also an important competitor.

The Rypple fee is 5 dollars a month for each user, and it can use social networks to set performance goals and standards, and identify employees by identifying them. Rypple has now been integrated with Salesforce to improve management of employees, sales and finance. The end result is that Rypple will be a powerful tool for businesses to encourage marketers to work on marketing. Rypple will also be integrated with chatter to enhance the incentive for employees. All the integration work is expected to be completed in April.

The goal of Salesforce integration is to enable employees to get rid of form human resource management systems. In Rypple's view, it should not be confined to the human resource management category. The role of rypple in management and staff coaching has changed the way people work, making it easier for employees to work.

As for Site.com,salesforce has promised to build a web-based mobile content delivery system, making site.com the first and only a cloud content management system designed for social enterprises. And Site.com will focus on one-time content publishing and multi-channel delivery work.

Site.com was developed specifically for the sales department because it used to be the case that thousands of micro-sites had to be entered on different platforms to get information. And these micro-sites are often in the enterprise IT management outside the scope of development, that is, these sites can not be effective security protection. These micro-sites together, the equivalent of a huge content library. To give a real example, HP has built 3,000 pages on site.com so far, and one site can be linked to about 1000 micro sites.

Site.com will be integrated with a number of Salesforce products including sales Cloud, Service Cloud, database.com, and force.com custom application software. HP and FICO are also among those who have started using site.com to experience the benefits of template-driven Web sites, drag-and-drop forms, chatter consolidations, and multi-language support.

Site.com's new pricing will be officially announced in April, with each site charging 1500 dollars a month. Site.com can be either a stand-alone computer or an extension component on a salesforce.com. In addition to the charges for each site, a fee is charged for both the publisher and the contributor, which is $125 per month and 20 USD per month respectively. At the end of April, Salesforce will offer new preferential prices for site.com-one site, two publishers and two contributors each month for a total of 825 dollars.
