Salesforce is also successful because they are the grandmasters of price tier fuckery. At first the price seems pretty ok for a small or midsized company that's growing fast and looking for a scalable enterprise solution. It seems reasonable at first with about 20-50 bux per month & user. but as your org grows and are in the next user tier and you need more plugins or even some customization you'll suddenly find yourself at 250+. What are you gonna do now? Switch CRM and change workflows?  They charge you for everything and have so much data they know exactly how to bleed their customers so it hurts them but not enough to bleed them dry.

Star trekkin was definitely one of the first songs I downloaded from the internet, probably mislabeled as Weird Al because that's what I was into the literal first one I think was the theme from Austin Powers. Left the computer on all night with its 33.6 modem

Like "ok hit login. ok click on the sidebar.

They're not a charity, jeez!" he's made p much these same arguments when someone brought it up before. "they're paying above minimum wage and offer benefits they don't even have to!" he, of course, is paid well into six figgies, was given a generous signing bonus, and works from home when not traveling.
