ServoTerra Teams With Appirio and Salesforce.com to Build the First B2B Commodity and Futures Marketplace for Trading

SAN FRANCISCO, CA and SAN MATEO, CA, Jun 24 (MARKET
WIRE) --
Salesforce.com (NYSE: CRM), the enterprise cloud computing company, and
Appirio (www.appirio.com), a cloud solution provider, today announced that
ServoTerra has built and deployed an asset planning application and B2B
trading exchange built entirely on the Force.com platform and the new
Force.com Sites capability.

ServoTerra provides IT asset disposal solutions, including SaaS asset life
cycle planning, virtual consignment, and environmental compliance
tracking, enabling companies to achieve a 35% higher return on average
than other models. In less than 12 weeks, Appirio and ServoTerra
designed, developed and deployed a hardware asset planning application
and B2B marketplace entirely in the cloud on Force.com.

"Appirio lived up to its reputation as the leader in Force.com
development," said Steve Wagner, CEO of ServoTerra. "We gave Appirio a 12
week time-frame from initial meeting to first customer release. They were
able to quickly understand the business model and translate it to design
requirements, which allowed them to provide a flexible development plan
and key resources for success. As a result, ServoTerra was able to exceed
our customers' expectations in terms of time to market and functionality
through our strong partnerships with Appirio and salesforce.com."

ServoTerra's asset planning application and exchange marketplace enable
enterprises to effectively plan the life cycle of any hardware asset from
purchase through end of life with a focus on profitability. This is unique
because it enables customers to proactively plan for the disposition of
their assets by selling them in advance of their availability. By using
ServoTerra's trading exchange, IT asset managers can minimize asset
depreciation by identifying the optimal time to sell. With any reductions
in asset depreciation cost going straight to the bottom line, this is a
powerful new value driver for companies.

The ServoTerra trading exchange is built entirely on the Force.com
platform. This means it not only works seamlessly with ServoTerra's
existing Salesforce CRM application, but also gains all the benefits of
the leading enterprise cloud platform, including unlimited real-time
customization, workflow and approvals, powerful analytics and much more.
ServoTerra is also taking advantage of the new Force.com Sites capability
to make the trading exchange available as a public-facing Web site.
ServoTerra is redefining conventional IT asset disposition methods by
connecting the owner of the asset directly with the buyer and creating
transparency by taking the industry to the cloud.

"Force.com is revolutionizing how companies, like ServoTerra, bring
disruptive innovation to market," said Chris Barbin, CEO of Appirio. "The
cloud model lets businesses focus on rapid business process innovation
rather than managing infrastructure. It's success stories like these that
are accelerating the drive to enterprises running completely in the
cloud."

ServoTerra is one of the 59,300 companies of all sizes, industries and
geographies that comprised the salesforce.com customer base as of April
30, 2009. Revenue and subscribers will be recognized as the service is
delivered.
