Companies worldwide have built their business on Salesforce. With the Salesforce1 Mobile App, the Salesforce1 Platform and the recently announced Community Cloud, companies have a growing arsenal of tools to increase business, capabilities and communications.  At Dreamforce, you can get familiar with these three overlapping products. Here’s how:

1. Get up close and personal with our products in the Product Campground

The Salesforce1 Mobile App 

The Salesforce1 Mobile App will be front and center Mobile workshopsin the Product Campground as part of the Sales Cloud section. Look for a reimagined theater demonstrating Salesforce1 across multiple devices. This will also be the location of the Salesforce1 Mobile Adoption Workshops, where you can get hands on with Salesforce1, and learn how to get your company on-board with Salesforce1 adoption. And don’t miss the self-guided tours and Salesforce1 Mobile App Test Drive that lets you see the latest features.

You can also get hands on with Salesforce1 across the campus at the Salesforce1 Mobile Bars—staffed by experts.

The Salesforce1 Platform

PlatformPlatform will have not one, but two areas on the Product Campground. Again, we will be highlighting Platform, Heroku, and Force.com in a single area. Learn about the technology, specifically regarding visual development, integration, coding, connected products, and more, across demos, theater sessions, and from experts. Also, be sure to play “AppMatch”—our AppExchange version of “Memory”—and match apps with how they’re used.

New this year is the App Area in the Product Campground. With over 4 million apps built on the Platform, we’re showing you some of our favorites. Get major inspiration as we show customer facing and employee facing apps built with Force.com and Heroku.

And, like every year, head to the DevZone to get a truly hands-on experience with the Salesforce1 Platform!

Community Cloud

We’re welcoming the new Community Cloud to the Pono-music-player-014Product Campground in a big way! With the huge growth of communities, we have some pretty great use cases to show you in the Community Cloud area. You’ve heard that Neil Young will be speaking on the Thursday of Dreamforce. Did you also know that the Community Cloud will be the first to showcase his new music project, Pono Music? Right there in the Community Cloud area, you can be one of the first to experience their higher quality of music, community-based programming (and more) within sound booths and demo stations. You’ll also have a chance to sign up to win one of the yet-to-be released Pono Music Players!

Beyond the Campground, we’ll have interactive sessions including tips, tricks, and best practices in numerous other zones.
