Cezanne's Apple

Cezanne’s Apple

By John Taschek on April 7, 2011

Cezanne wrote once “With an Apple, I will astonish Paris.” Cezanne at the time was a notoriously sophisticated and gifted walking set of contradictions. He loved everything he hated and hated everything he loved. He approached painting with scalpel-like precision but with a scalpel to canvas nonetheless. He wanted the world to bleed – and […]

Google's Disruption Of Enterprise Email Market And Their "Social Challenges"

Google’s Disruption Of Enterprise Email Market And Their “Social Challenges”

By Krishnan Subramanian on February 24, 2011

Ever since Gmail captured the imagination of consumers, Google has been trying to push Google Apps to enterprise customers. In spite of some news about problems in their implementation for big customers, it has been gaining traction steadily. The biggest attraction towards Google Apps Email over other systems is the cost. Even though other players […]

Shrinking Balls

Shrinking Balls

By John Taschek on February 10, 2011

In my last post, I wrote about the sentiment analysis of the Super Bowl and how brands are impacted by the real-time stream. That stream stimulates a Mean Girls phenomenon that causes people to be more passionate and start to bully as they become more popular. I know some analysts…

The Real-Time Brand

The Real-Time Brand

By John Taschek on February 6, 2011

As I write this, it is kickoff time for the Super Bowl, an event that galvanizes people as much as Bill O’Reilly does on a day to day basis. The Super Bowl is a brand, and while millions watch it, millions refuse to watch it, and hundreds of thousands are forced to watch it because […]

Salesforce.com Acquires DimDim

Salesforce.com Acquires DimDim

By Krishnan Subramanian on January 6, 2011

Image via CrunchBase Salesforce.com (see previous CloudAve coverage) today announced that it is acquiring DimDim, a low priced Webex competitor, for approximately 31 Million in cash. DimDim was founded in 2007 with its development office in Hyderabad, India. They offered real time collaboration service with video, presentation, whiteboard, etc.. I have been using/following DimDim ever […]

Dreamforce: Decade of Inspiration

Dreamforce: Decade of Inspiration

By John Taschek on December 7, 2010

I was at the first Dreamforce. It was in a hotel at the Westin St. Francis in San Francisco and it attracted 500 people and perhaps another 200 employees — roughly 2/3 of the entire company. The big announcements were related to sales force automation, but the company also announced custom tabs and some nifty […]

Well, Well, SAP is now on Google Apps MarketPlace. Ok, Just StreamWork. But Still:-)

Well, Well, SAP is now on Google Apps MarketPlace. Ok, Just StreamWork. But Still:-)

By Zoli Erdos on December 6, 2010

Straight from the Who-woulda-thunk-it department: time to rethink the Enterprise Software is Not Sexy meme.  Or at least parts of it.  We’ve previously introduced SAP’s StreamWork collaboration platform – it is now available on the Google Apps Marketplace. That’s not exactly the old-fashioned Enterprise Approach to market. And if you look at SAP’s StreamWork Partner […]

Does Twitter (Really) Make you Smarter?

Does Twitter (Really) Make you Smarter?

By John Taschek on November 29, 2010

When 95 percent of college students use social media tools, perhaps excessively, it seems almost impossible to isolate a study that tries to answer the question “does social media make you smarter.” This is an awkward and irrelevant question to ask and anyone who has been born since the industrial revolution but before Facebook was […]

iPad In The Enterprises: ServiceMax Announces Field-Service iPad App

iPad In The Enterprises: ServiceMax Announces Field-Service iPad App

By Krishnan Subramanian on November 23, 2010

I have been covering the iPad in the enterprise meme here at CloudAve and many others are regularly talking about how iPad is changing the business landscape. Clearly, the use of iPad is not a fad. From sales teams to IT admins, enterprises of all sizes are finding iPad to be very convenient, even increasing […]

Salesforce Chatter goes into GA. No Hiding Now Marc!

Salesforce Chatter goes into GA. No Hiding Now Marc!

By Ben Kepes on June 22, 2010

I’ve always been partly in awe and partly dubious about the way Salesforce.com CEO Marc Benioff gives… “aspirational” product announcements. On one level, it’s great to get people thinking and envisioning a future, while on another vaporware is just that – unobtainable and frustrating. Just look at his quote about Chatter: Salesforce Chatter is the […]

All you need to know about Chatter –Salesforce.com’s Collaboration Cloud

All you need to know about Chatter –Salesforce.com’s Collaboration Cloud

By Mark Fidelman on May 20, 2010

I’ve had two experiences with Marc Benioff. One positive and one less so.  The positive experience dealt with Marc taking a direct role in helping a friend of mine find a job within Salesforce.  Marc didn’t have to but he did it because he cares about hiring great people. The second experience was in the […]

SucessFactors Buys CubeTree – It’s a Defensive Move

SucessFactors Buys CubeTree – It’s a Defensive Move

By Ben Kepes on May 3, 2010

I wrote about CubeTree last October when they were finalist (and eventual winner) in the Enterprise 2.0 LaunchPad. News just out today that they’re to be acquired by SuccessFactors for $20 million with a three year, $30 million earn out clause. There’s been a flurry of commentary around this deal – here’s a quick analysis […]

By Ben Kepes on April 8, 2010

Right about now, Jeremy Roche the CEO of SaaS Accounting vendor FinancialForce (more on them here) is on stage at CloudForce in New York telling the world about the integration they’ve made with Salesforce’s chatter functionality. I had an opportunity to speak with Roche a week or so ago under a strict embargo about the […]

Salesforce shows the future of enterprise collaboration - but have they got the branding right?

Salesforce shows the future of enterprise collaboration – but have they got the branding right?

By David Terrar on January 7, 2010

A month ago on Monday 7 December I was sitting in the London version of the CloudForce2 Partner Summit, and then stricken by a virus overnight, I watched Marc Benioff livestreamed for the 2 hours and 15 minutes of his keynote in the general customer session on the following day.   It sounds like he did […]

EventVue Chatter – Sometimes the Simplest Ideas are the Best

By Ben Kepes on December 9, 2009

At the defrag conference in Denver in November, many attendees were intrigued, excited and committed users of a product from Colorado company EventVue. EventVue was founded in 2007 by Josh Fraser & Rob Johnson. And they’re alumni of the inaugural class of TechStars. Originally the EventVue offering focused on attendee list functionality, giving conference attendees […]
