CRM -- think of it as what real businesses use instead of asking proles if they have their "saver card" on their keychain when you "ring them up."

Not really. Yes, you can implement what they do with blockchain, but the key is that they have the interface and tools for CRM built-in.

If you're a SFDC customer, I'm not sure why you would care if your CRM is based on blockchain or not.

Let's you keep track of what the fuck your sales guys are up to.

Let's your sales channel claim log opportunities so that you avoid conflict (e.g., two CA reps pursuing the same opportunity with Google).

If it is pre configured for a certain work flow or industry, you will make a killing. I used to work at such a company. I didn't make shit but the owner made $100mm off the sale of the company.

It's a centralized database for sales/marketing/billing.

It does a lot, but basically it's a giant rolodex for all sales activities, client relationships, invoices, etc. it's usually the central database of revenue-generating departments for businesses.

Yes, this is the core of their offerings. There's other stuff (you can actually write your own webapps using their underlying technologies rather than rolling your own servers or servlets or whatever) but this is easily the most important part.
