Dreamforce 2022: When the Genie Came out of the Bottle

This IDC Perspective discusses the key new product and services announcements made by Salesforce at their flagship annual customer conference, Dreamforce, that was held from September 20-22, 2022, at the Moscone Center in San Francisco. At Dreamforce 2022, Salesforce unleashed a range of incremental product innovations that should please its customers. The most important of these products is Genie, Salesforce's new data management platform that brings a new real-time intelligence and automation "magic" across the Salesforce CX platform. In addition, it has enhanced Customer 360, enabling the CDP to be deployed across multiple customer-facing departments "beyond marketing" to provide a single version of customer data truth to be available in all customer engagements. Finally, Slack is now available across the Salesforce Clouds and features many new ease-of-use features. "Salesforce again delivers innovations that scale across its CX platform," said Gerry Brown, CX research director, IDC. "Genie will likely prove another winner in the CX marketplace, and the 'CDP everywhere' and Slack improvements will be welcomed by Salesforce customers. Enterprise buyers are advised to carefully study the small print as there will be a phased release of some functionality during 2023. However, Salesforce's increased focus on Customer Success services should ensure deployments go smoothly and deliver value realization."

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
