09.20.07And the answer is…Does SalesForce work for nonprofits? According to my highly sophisticated survey... yes.

And further, that the 80 or so of the 350 at the conference that came the breakout session on the AppExchange (which is the marketplace for SF plug-ins) might be the geekier subset and therefore susceptable to acts of impulsive optimism, but: 80% of the people in the room indicated that "YES, mine works!". 90% of people that had used an AppExchange module said "YES, it ...
