The engineering team requested justification of previous commitment and spend. Due to the past lack of utilization, churn was a real concern to the supplier. Salesforce also understood current plans for growth and expansion in production over the next 2 years with the importance of the teams marketing influence overseas centered around the Mulesoft platform, thus provided a discounted offer for 36 months was provided saving over $100k annually."Company with 201-1000 employeesThis year

"We opted to leave Salesforce as they consistently increased our costs year over year (anywhere from 9% to 24% depending on the contract at hand). Half of our company already uses HubSpot so we intend to transition to that instead."Company with 201-1000 employeesThis year

"We had negotiated a 5% uplift cap last year, so our uplift at renewal was 5% for the same scope. We had added ~15 users mid-term, and tried to leverage that for flat pricing and to keep the 5% uplift cap in place for the next renewal. Salesforce refused both despite many pushes, and would only entertain keeping the uplift cap special term if we were willing to sign a multi year agreement or commit to additional growth, neither of which made sense for our business at this time."Company with 201-1000 employeesA while ago
"Averted 9% uplift and achieved a 4.4% uplift on Sales Cloud licenses by leveraging budget and a 36 month agreement"Company with 201-1000 employeesA while ago

"We added some seats as well as Mulesoft Composer (on a separate contract with the same contract dates) in order to reach the spend threshold needed to waive the 5% uplift. We were able to get a small discount on Mulesoft so we were increasing our spend enough to waive the uplift, but not more."Company with 201-1000 employeesA while ago

"We thought we were going to expand our contract by almost 50% and ended up not being able to get budget for CPQ.
