This month Idealist Consulting attended the Salesforce Foundation partner meeting in both New York and San Francisco. The partner meeting was an interactive conversation with top Foundation partners as well as members of the Salesforce.com Foundation team focusing on doubling the number of nonprofit and educational organizations benefiting from cloud computing. 

Idealist Consulting is one of the original Nonprofit implementation partners and has seen significant growth since it started working with the Salesforce Foundation over four years ago.  The new Nonprofit Edition with new pricing structure we learned about at the Partner meetings are going to have a big impact on the Nonprofit space as a whole.  We see over 6000 nonprofits using Salesforce now and we are projecting that number to double in a year’s time. This partner meeting and other like it are making Salesforce one of the more approachable database solutions for NPO’s big and small.  That said keep a look out for Dream Force 2009 in San Francisco…we hope to see you there.

 Roughly four years ago the Salesforce Foundation invited Idealist Consulting to become a partner.  There were only four partners at the time, and a handful of nonprofit configurations.  Since that time we have helped to implement Salesforce for over 150 nonprofit organizations throughout North America. In addition to this effort we were the first to deploy an application specifically for the nonprofit sector as well as one of the first organizations to help jump start the SFNP user group and provide development support with the Non Profit Edition.  It has been a wonderful relationship for our clients and Idealist Consulting and we are looking forward to furthering our mission with the Salesforce Foundation.
