The highlights:
Cedric on how FormAssembly is able to stand out amongst competitors:
“Salesforce integration and being able to be in that space and understand that space very well, as well as how our customers use Salesforce and what their needs are. Having that kind of first mover advantage was good for us because we’ve been able to build an integration that is miles ahead of anything our competitors are doing in that particular space.”
Cedric on finding talent at a remote company:
“If you go to some of the big job boards like Indeed, you could just advertise the position as remote. When we do that, we get hundreds of applicants for every position that we open. It’s hard to sift through all the applicants and find the right person. Once you find someone that has the right experience and skillset that you’re looking for, then we really don’t care where they’re at.”
Cedric on the advantage of being a Salesforce ISV:
“What Salesforce has done for us is, brought us different kinds of customers. Before, it was small businesses and individuals. Through Salesforce, now we have Fortune 500 companies and very large organizations.”
