Salesforce's stock jumped nearly 10% last week. Their investors are thrilled. You probably aren't.
Here's what actually happened: Salesforce beat earnings and announced a $5 billion investment in Anthropic, the AI company behind Claude. The market read that as a signal that Salesforce is serious about baking AI deeper into its platform — agents, automation, the works.
For you, that news lands differently. You're already paying for features you can't configure without a consultant. Now the roadmap is accelerating toward AI capabilities built for enterprise deals and analyst presentations — not for the mid-market ops leader who just needs the pipeline stages to match how your team actually sells.
More AI on top of a system that doesn't fit your business isn't a solution. It's a faster way to get wrong answers.
Every time Salesforce has a big quarter, the pricing pressure follows. And the customization gap between what they sell and what your team can actually use without outside help tends to grow, not shrink.
The companies that win the next few years won't be the ones with the most AI features — they'll be the ones whose CRM data is clean enough that the AI has something real to work with.
