   Salesforce is a powerful customer relationship management (CRM) platform, and I have been using it for business for several months now. Overall, I am pleased with the functionality and capabilities it provides.

   Pros: 1. Full customization - Salesforce allows you to adapt the system to any business needs. There are a huge number of customization tools, which makes it universal for different industries. 2. Powerful analytical tools - The platform provides excellent analytics and reporting capabilities. You can easily track the effectiveness of marketing campaigns, analyze customer behavior and build forecasts. 3. Interface - Despite the huge number of functions, the interface is quite intuitive and does not cause difficulties in mastering. Configuration and data management are easy to organize. 4. Integrations - Salesforce supports many integrations with other services and platforms, which simplifies work and allows you to use it in conjunction with other business solutions.

   Cons: 1. High cost - Salesforce can be expensive for small companies. The subscription price, plus additional costs for customization and support, can quickly become significant. 2. Steep learning curve — The sheer amount of functionality can make it difficult for newcomers to get their head around the platform. It takes time to master all of the features. 3. Sometimes feature-heavy — For smaller businesses, some of the features in Salesforce can be redundant and not always necessary. This can cause confusion as you work.

   Overall, Salesforce is a great platform for larger organizations and businesses that need to effectively manage customer data and automate processes. However, for smaller businesses, the cost and complexity can be a barrier. However, if your business is growing, Salesforce is a powerful tool for growth and scaling.

• I published a 15-year list of product management articles that covers much of my career to date. Saved first in bookmarks, then in Wordpress, then in Airtable, now in Baserow.

  Alternatives were Rows and Airtable. Rows tends to be better at calculation, while Airtable tends to be better at storing and sorting data as a database. I was not aware of the open-source alternative called Baserow at the time. I did not choose any office suite like Google Docs or Microsoft 365 because they seemed… too old-fashioned, I guess, while I wanted glitter. ✨. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Ask HN: What are Airtable alternatives with higher rate limits?

  [Baserow], [APITable], [Grist], and [Rowy] are all open source Airtable alternatives which offer hosted SaaS versions that include API access, though it's a bit difficult to compare the API rate limits across all these products. Self-hosting an app like this would allow you to bypass API rate limits altogether, if you're open to it. All the above products can be self-hosted — and you might want to look at [NocoDB]... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• What do you use for reporting?

  I have found rows.com recently, and im looking for a software to semi-automate my ppc reports (mostly facebook ads, but rarely google as well). Source: over 2 years ago

• Does anyone use a visual SQL query builder?

  You can try using this tool: https://rows.com. Source: over 2 years ago

• Which tool is easiest for building API calls?

  I work at Rows. It’s a spreadsheet with native UI to import data from many services ( Google Analytics, Ads platforms, BigQuery,…) plus you can make your own custom api calls directly from the grid. We also have zapier and make connectors, if you need to setup something more articulated. Source: over 2 years ago

• MyDMV Portal has a really suspicious address.

  Maybe I'm just paranoid, but this thing screams "phishing link" to me. Why is this not a subdomain of flhmsv.gov ? Why is it a dot com?? I'd heard things about there being malicious links inserted into legit websites through either a hack or browser malware. Just going to force.com also redirects to salesforce.com , which... doesn't answer any questions at all. Is it just... Like this, or is there something... Source: over 2 years ago

• Etrade hangs on login and other pages

  I noticed when I click on manage cookies there is salesforce.com and a few others that I am not sure what they are trying to do but I am sure they have nothing to do with trading. Source: over 2 years ago

• Creating a Salesforce Email Report

  Hello! I'm aware that Tableau can capture email activity with EAC. However, I'm looking to add a report within a Salesforce Dashboard. I've attempted to create a report on email messages following the resource on Salesforce.com. But, the results were minimal (657 all-time emails? Since 2017.) For clarity, not for List Emails, just 1-1 sent through Salesforce. Source: over 2 years ago

• Freelance design contract offer - Regarding the "ownership of work product" - what is really owned? (What are your thoughts on this contract section?)

  It is a fintech company so I do not expect them to, for example, profit much from selling clothes, or posters with my work on it. However, they are interested in the style of branding, illustration and general design of this website https://salesforce.com/ which uses a lot of colourful and playful imagery / illustrations.
