- The same capabilities as other vendor’s paid versions (see benefit above)
- Easy way to get more value from strategic salesforce.com offerings such as Chatter (it's really cool what we do with Chatter).
What features do my customers get with free VIP Edition?

Is it really free? For how long?
It’s free. Really. It’s not a free trial (though we do offer those if you want to check out our Business or Enterprise Editions), it’s a free service. There is no expiration date, and there are no hidden fees.
Of course like other free cloud services, the lawyers make us say that we reserve the right to change the terms of the VIP Edition, but that’s because they’re lawyers.
Is SpringCM a good solution for my customers?
Like salesforce.com SpringCM is a powerful, enterprise-ready cloud platform, just for content. In fact Gartner recognized SpringCM as a Visionary in the Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Content Management in 2009, 2010 and 2011.
What else can my customers do with SpringCM beyond the free VIP Edition?
SpringCM has Business and Enterprise Editions that provide a lot more great capabilities like approval workflows, managing sales contracts and proposals. And great enterprise security features like Single-Sign on, integration with SharePoint, and encryption at rest.
How do customers sign-up?
They just register. They’ll get confirmation email and they’re off and running
Can my customers use the VIP Edition with custom objects?
Standard salesforce.com objects? Custom? One of both? No problem! The default configuration is to Accounts and Opportunities for Sales cloud, and Cases for Service cloud, but it’s easy to change to any other object.
Is my customer's content secure?
It is. SpringCM gives you enterprise-ready security, with SAS 70 Type II certification for the whole service. Learn more about cloud security.
