Think of the data that Salesforce has. If Facebook is powerful, the potential power of Saleforce is staggering.

The good news is their application is overloaded with legacy code and their quite incompetent on delivery. They're only still around because their corporate partnerships. I can build a more comprehensive CRM/Business Intelligence stack with apps integrated through Zapier.

overloaded with legacy code

Lmao. Actually, yeah, this is pretty on point. Lots of big tech giants are probably at the mercy of potentially collapsing due to this issue.

However, the financial sector is all built around COBOL and that code has yet to cause a financial collapse. So I might be too optimistic here.
