Salesforce, Microsoft reportedly in new partnership talks

May 29 2014

First SAP and now, perhaps, Salesforce.com?

If a Bloomberg report is correct, Microsoft and Salesforce have been in talks that would bring the two rival CRM vendors back into a working relationship around Microsoft Azure.

Discussion points range from integrating Salesforce products with Microsoft Office, to the more vague report of a partnership that "will make Salesforce's program available on Microsoft's Azure service".
