"big-ticket software purchases just don't make sense."

"At a time when capital is precious," Benioff noted, "big-ticket software purchases just don't make sense."

With the global economy in ruins, SaaS providers such as Salesforce.com are like a school of hungry sharks, eyeing the incumbent CRM, ERP, BI and supply chain vendors who've been wounded by persistent user complaints about high cost, enterprise application inflexibility and vendor lock-in fears, and are treading water as they chart their own uncertain direction.

The above are recent comments by Salesforce.com founder Marc Benioff. We agree. Over the past 4 months our opportunities and inquires into Ascent have quadrupled. We are generating a lead per day and those leads are starting to become customers.

The companies investigating Ascent and deciding to move forward are realizing what Marc Benioff is saying, the Force.com platform allows companies to take control of their businesses and their lives with a flexible low cost alternative to traditional software vendors.
