We’re concerned with security in a shared environment. We need our own dedicated instance. • Questions • What are your specific security requirements? Is your concern Security or data ownership? • Response • Security of customer data has been the #1 priority of salesforce.com from day 1. 100% of our customers enjoy a level of security that historically only a few companies could afford to build. • Our system has been architected from day 1 as a multi-tenant application that can securely store multiple customers data on a shared architecture. This is the same approach that consumer banking web sites have followed for the past 10 years. • We maintain the highest security standards at three levels • Application Security: Every row of data in every table is tagged with a unique identifier for each customer. Every query of our system is filtered on this field. This ensures that customers only see there data. • Facilities security: Highest security facilities, 5 hand scans to get to our cages, man-traps • Network security: Secure OC-48 connection between data centers. 3rd party certifications, White-hat hackers • Proof • SAS70 Type II certified, SysTrustcertified • Zero intrusions / security failures in our 8 year history • Deep customer security audits: Merrill Lynch, Cisco, Symantec, Citibank, Deutsche Bank, including the Top 3 Firewall providers

How much? • What if you could leverage all of your existing investments for your SFDC deployment? • Responses: • Most customers find that we are more cost effective when they calculate a comprehensive TCO. Would it make sense for me to put you in touch with some of these customers or share some TCO calculations/models? • Calculating an accurate TCO can also be a major challenge. It is difficult to value opportunity cost (higher priorities for IT resources, cost of not upgrading, missing features, etc.) • A few of my customers have calculated that an on demand system may be slightly more expensive than in-house over 5+ years. Regardless of which system may be cheaper, customers have found calculating ROI the best metric. • Would moving IT resources from maintenance to innovation help you achieve your Business Issues (objectives) faster? • Other considerations: Upgrades & IT: maintenance to innovation • Proof: • Sample TCO model / Customer references & stories
