Ah this thread takes me back to when I was young and had a chance to work at Salesforce many years ago, documented here for eternity:
https://www.contractoruk.com/forums/...ght=salesforce
I really should have listened to Scoobos and Cojak back then. Can you imagine the value of my stock options, had I joined Salesforce back in 2013? The stock was at $40 back then and is now at $185. And there was a 4-for-1 stock split in 2013!
Rose-tinted perhaps, but it hurts to think of what could have been.
And now, in 2020, I will soon being facing unemployment due to the Tories' IR35 change and being outdated with my skillset. I rode the wave too long.
Life can be so cruel.Comment

Yep, if it is one or t’other I’d go for Dynamics. I’m not quite so confident of the stock options mind..."I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."

Joining an ISV riding MS's coat tails within a booming market could however be very profitable (at least I'm hoping so).Last edited by eek; 10 February 2020, 12:46.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

Create a trial at https://powerapps.microsoft.com/
and think through a business process you understand and try to automate it within the system...
Also there are a number of App in a Day courses around at the moment I will see if I can find the UK - see App in a day Event Web page
London tomorrow, Reading Feb 26th...
Virtual one is Virtual App In a Day Free Registration – Pragmatic Works Training (it's from August last year so it may be slightly out of date in a few places).Last edited by eek; 10 February 2020, 13:08.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment
