Salesforce.com For Dummies, 6th Edition (For Dummies (Computer/Tech))

This book is very very informative and helpful.. Ive always been a Salesforce end-user and now this helps me step into another role.. I would recommend 100%

Wasn't what I was looking for. I need to know what it takes to develop a SF application that goes outside of CRM. This was not very helpful in that respect.

Very nice. Well written and to the point.

Great read

Great summary of salesforce. The documentation on SF is overwhelming and this makes it quite concise and easily understandable if you were lost like me.

This is a 4 to 5 star item. It is great for the right audience which appears to be the end user. I'm sort of an end user being in Salesforce Administration so I didn't find what I was expecting... but it's still darned good!

Sample is worthless. It only gets to the point of setting the topic up - you don't see how it handles and step-by-step instructions, tips, etc.. I knwo the sample process just shows X number of pages but Amazon should have a vetting process to make sure the sample is actually useful. Not buying here due to the poor sample.

I have a number of the "for Dummies" books and I have always been consistently impressed with their clarity and simplicity. Regardless of the author, they introduce and explain their topics in ways that make learning easy. Not this book. This is little more than the type of User Manuals you get from software companies nowadays. To create an account, click "Create Account". Really? I didn't know that. Thanks. Nowhere is there a conceptual introduction to what this product is, how it is structured, or how to evaluate it for your company. The book lacks a basic primer into the terms, processes, and data structures used by this product. I love "for Dummies" books, but feel I wasted my money on this one.
