In short, the Salesforce ecosystem refers to all of the other companies, products and partners that
exist because Salesforce exists--the apps that plug into Salesforce being one of the components of
the ecosystem.
The amazing part about the Salesforce ecosystem is that the more deeply Salesforce becomes
entrenched in the business environment, the more robust, stable and far flung the Salesforce
ecosystem becomes. In fact, it has been commonly argued that, over time, Salesforce has grown more
and more into its role of “keystone species” in the business software ecosystem. (Source: Insight

“More than a suite of sales, marketing, and other customer relationship applications, Salesforce
provides the underlying infrastructure for a host of third-party apps and services,” Jason Bloomberg
wrote in a recent article for Forbes. “Nobody has ever built an ecosystem bigger or better than
Salesforce has.”
In a custom IDC survey of 1,142 cloud-using organizations in 8 countries supporting this study,
Salesforce customers said, on average, they have experienced payback from their Salesforce
technology investments in 13 months or less. Over four years, aggregate worldwide investments by
Salesforce customers in cloud computing should yield 3–5 times the financial benefits compared with
costs. (Source: IDC #258001: August 2015).
