Salesforce.com set new second quarter sales figures of $177m (£89m), up 49 per cent on last year, and also added a record 3,000 new customers.
The company now provides CRM services to more than 35,000 businesses and 800,000 subscribers, says Salesforce.com chief executive Marc Benioff.
‘Our business continues to show incredible momentum,’ he said.
