Author Solutions all-in Force.com

May 30, 2008

Well, I got this gem while trolling PR Newswire so it’s a little overloaded with jargon and market-speak, but if you consider the whole over the sum of it’s parts you can get a pretty clear understanding of what’s just happened here.

Author Solutions in tandem with Appirio have worked to completely salesforcenize their business. Author Solutions publishes books and now every step in that process has a touch of Force.com in it. They’ve linked every application in their production line through Force.com, enabling Author Solutions to do what they were successful at anyway only now they can publish faster, better, stronger, and probably for less than $6-million in 1974.

This is a company who has revamped the foundations of their software/production to include Force.com and from the looks of this press release it’s going very well for them. I’m not surprised, are you?

The release at PR Newswire is here and behind their names you can find Appirio and Author Solutions.
