Plone Salesforce integration screencasts
At ONE/Northwest, we’re all about using appropriate tools for the job. Because of that, we’ve done some work building connections between Salesforce.com and Plone. We love Salesforce.com for CRM functions, and Plone is great for externally facing publishing and gathering of information.
Together they can be pretty powerful. My colleague Andrew Burkhalter has produced a couple screen movies of this integration in action.
First, he shows a use case for creating a form that saves data directly to Salesforce.com. This example creates complex, related data from a single form. It’s completely flexible, and very powerful.
In this second video, Andrew walks through our new Plone RSVP product that makes it easy to publish events and take registrations directly to Salesforce.com. Again, we’ve focused on flexibility, allowing you to use any objects you want to represent events and people.
If you want an open-source CMS for managing your website that is integrated with Salesforce.com, you should check out Plone and the connections we’ve created to Salesforce.com.

Andrew, I just wanted to say that these video presentations were very well put together. It looks like the Plone to Salesforce functionality is incredibly powerful.
