    Thank you for this explanation on salesforce. Because I only have heard of salesforce as being a CRM as the company I worked was using it in 07 on the sales side. I’ve been researching careers. I can transition into inttect, and I kept hearing people mention salesforce. My cousin is also a software engineer, and works in salesforce as well or maybe he works for salesforce. But I had to get more information since I keep hearing salesforce continuously.
