We're going to learn a little bit more about Salesforce license types :
It's the first thing to know before to start a project. It's important to know how many API Calls, Storage...ah, sorry, those are thing we need to explain in details after all ;-)
First, you have to double check what is your license or in case your are purchasing what is your best choice.
There are some Salesforce solutions : Sales, Services, Marketing, Platform (Force.com)...
For any of them you have several editions : Group, Professional, Enterprise...And finally, your license is based over those editions : We're going to take Sales as an example.
Top 3 most Important concept to take care about :
1) Type of Salesforce Sales license, Does it allow your requirements? and features you need?
Those are selected like "tics" into the list. In this link Salesforce compare different Sales License Editions
Next 2 concepts are based on limits. Into a Salesforce Cloud project you are limited to several number of platform features. You could say "I rented to Salesforce this power". "Power" really is "level of service" and it's mesured like limits.
2) Storage. Are your storage needs enought with your Salesforce license type?
It's calculated by number of users multiply number of Mb depend of Salesforce license
Storage calculation is detailed here.
3) API Calls : Those are the number of calls using APEX Code (programming language of Salesforce similar to Java but not equal)
It's calculated by number of users multiply number of API Calls depend of Salesforce license
It's important to know that those are counted as a Pool, It means you can spent all with only one user. Or 50% one user and the other 50% over other all users.
API call limits are detailed here.
4) Other Salesforce limits
Important to check at least Salesforce limits by edition
Three simple concepts, but a lot of importance into a Salesforce Cloud Project.
Enjoy & have fun !!!
