Salesforce is an Oracle/Java webapp from 1999 + a whole bunch of poorly integrated acquisitions. It's a miracle it works at all.
I have never met a sales person that enjoyed the salesforce user experience. As with many of these enterprise apps, they are to shine for the people who sign the check, corporate finance. Nice reports, lots of governance, horrendous UX for the sales force. "Who cares.. they always whinge, just tell them they have to use it."
what software do they enjoy?
I don't know how it works from the culture pov, but Salesforce has a few products that can be used independently - mulesoft, tableau, heroku, and of course, slack.
Is the joke that every one of those is an acquisition?
Been in an Atlassian acquistion from a smaller startup. AMA
