Dell, IBM, Amazon and Google are also some of the behemoths to partner with Salesforce’s cloud services, helping it expand international operations.
These innovations are proving to be accretive to its top-line growth, which has led the company to raise outlook for fiscal 2019.
Price Performance
The company’s relentless efforts to improve customer service has resulted in its shares gaining 42.1% year to date compared to the industry’s rally of 17.6%.
Zacks Rank and Stocks to Consider

The Hottest Tech Mega-Trend of All
Last year, it generated $8 billion in global revenues. By 2020, it's predicted to blast through the roof to $47 billion. Famed investor Mark Cuban says it will produce ""the world's first trillionaires,"" but that should still leave plenty of money for regular investors who make the right trades early.
