Frequently Asked Questions
How are you different than Salesforce?
We offer a product that is similar in some exciting ways, but you will love our business model. We intend to allow customers to license and download the entire platform onto their own servers (or we can host it for you). Why will you love that? Because each new user or customer that you bring into your licensed platform is free to you. They are your customers and users, not ours. We are just here to support your apps and help you grow.
How much will it cost?
Although we are still crunching our numbers, we promise that the value you receive will be tremendous and will make you rethink how you use apps to run your business. It will make you rethink how you can create new business opportunities. Compared to the fees you pay to Salesforce, it will seem like pennies.
I am not sure how to set SharePlow up on a server. Can you help me?
Of course. We will offer three models. The first is a simple version that you can use on our software-as-a-service platform. The second model is for more serious customers who know they want their own licensed platform, but do not have the time, or interest in configuring and managing their own servers. This will be a bit more expensive, but, you will have your very own server configured and managed by SharePlow. The third model is for customers that want to download the platform and will configure it themselves. More advanced? Yes. This model provides the greatest amount of power, features and customization.
Is SharePlow a Content Management Platform?
SharePlow is far far more than a CMS. It's a platform designed for transactional data, offering customization features that you may expect from a CMS. SharePlow is a tool that you can use to build amazing applications and not just blogs or brochure-style sites.
