With the added power of structured data, it will be possible for any business user, with any device, to explore personal business insights instantly.

“We’re excited to see the enormous productivity gains the combination of Salesforce Analytics Cloud with FirstRain’s personal business analytics will give our mutual customers,” said Penny Herscher, FirstRain president and CEO, in an email statement. “Our customers have been asking for the ability to combine our powerful analytics with platforms like Wave, Salesforce’s Analytics Cloud—so we are delighted to be one of a few AppExchange ISV Partners to participate in this announcement.”
