Salesforce buys Slack

2 december 20202 december 2020

SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Salesforce (NYSE: CRM), the global leader in CRM, and Slack Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: WORK), the most innovative enterprise communications platform, have entered into a definitive agreement under which Salesforce will acquire Slack. Under the terms of the agreement, Slack shareholders will receive $26.79 in cash and 0.0776 shares of Salesforce common stock for each Slack share, representing an enterprise value of approximately $27.7 billion based on the closing price of Salesforce’s common stock on November 30, 2020.

Combining Slack with Salesforce Customer 360 will be transformative for customers and the industry. The combination will create the operating system for the new way to work, uniquely enabling companies to grow and succeed in the all-digital world.

Microsoft attempted to buy Slack in previous years, now Salesforce succeeded (for a lot more money). However promising Slack used to be it could not compete against Microsoft in any way during the last 8 months. Slack had to be acquired to become part of something bigger to save it. Salesforce is one step further in becoming a platform player in the business application and collaboration market.

VDI in the Age of Covid-19: Remote Work and the Challenge of the Virtualized Client

27 april 2020

De uitdaging bij thuiswerken is niet videovergaderen. Dat is namelijk een ‘inkoppertje’ omdat > 90% van de organisaties daar een clouddienst zoals Microsoft Teams voor inzetten.

Nee, de uitdaging zit hem in het geven van toegang tot (primaire) bedrijfsapplicaties die in het eigen datacenter draaien. Dat is vaak al wel geregeld voor een klein aantal gebruikers die, vanuit hun functie, toegang moeten hebben tot deze applicaties. Maar hoe doe je dat op schaal, voor (bijna) alle gebruikers ..

These are trying times, not least because corporate life needs to go on, which for millions of businesses means delivering compute resources to employees at home. Remote work is no longer an option or an initiative – almost overnight it’s become a global imperative.

Verveling is een goudmijn: ontprikkel je brein

27 april 2020

Deze tijd heeft ook voordelen. Meer tijd voor … niks … en dat is goed :

Creativiteit kun je niet met een knopje ineens aanzetten. Maar er is wel een methode om jezelf vatbaarder te maken voor creativiteit. Rust, tijd en verveling brengen jou op het juiste pad. Deze bizarre corona-tijd werpt ons terug op onszelf.

Opting out of Sonos Beta

1 februari 2020

I decided to start my gradual ‘opt-out’ of Sonos by first leaving the Beta Program. This means I will no longer test / contribute to improving Sonos. Although I certainly do not overestimate my personal contributions in this area, I decided I no longer want to be part of this because of the way Sonos is handling their product roadmap.
