Salesforce.com has also entered into an agreement with IBM to work together to further enable technology interoperability and joint customer success for businesses that use solutions from both companies.
"The cloud computing model offers customers a low-cost, low-risk way to
manage their IT infrastructure," said
"With LotusLive, we are applying 20 years of experience in collaboration to the cloud, helping businesses work smarter," said Sean Poulley, vice president of online collaboration services, IBM Lotus. "We believe the combination of LotusLive, Lotus Notes and Salesforce CRM will dramatically simplify and improve the way businesses interact with their customers."
Salesforce.com will show how customers can directly extend the customer and opportunity management work done in the Salesforce CRM application with the web conferencing and task management capabilities of LotusLive. With this integration, sales and other customer facing processes can extend beyond a single company to help connect and manage the activities of teams working across multiple organizations. In addition, through integration between Salesforce CRM and IBM's Lotus Notes, customers will enjoy integration between the contact and calendar information between the two applications.
