To the CloudSync team,

Today I'm sharing the most significant news in CloudSync's history. CloudSync Software has entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by Salesforce in a transaction valued at $2.1 billion. This milestone is a direct reflection of the product you've built, the customers you've championed, and the culture you've shaped over the past nine years.

When we started CloudSync, our ambition was to make enterprise data synchronization feel effortless. Joining Salesforce extends that mission to a global scale — placing our platform in front of 150,000 companies already running their businesses on the world's leading CRM. This is not an exit. It is an acceleration.

What this means for you
01

Your role is secure

Every CloudSync employee retains their current position, team, and reporting structure. No layoffs are planned as part of this transaction.

02

Benefits unchanged

Healthcare, 401(k) matching, equity vesting schedules, and PTO policies continue exactly as they are today through 2026.

03

Culture preserved

CloudSync will operate as an independent business unit within Salesforce, led by the existing executive team, from our San Francisco HQ.

— Marc Benioff, Chair & CEO, Salesforce

There will be an all-hands meeting this Thursday at 10:00 AM PT, where our CFO, Priya Ramanathan, and I will walk through the agreement in detail and take your questions. Dedicated office hours will run every Wednesday through December. For anything personal or time-sensitive, your manager and People Partner are fully briefed and ready to support you.

None of this happens without the extraordinary work you do every day. Thank you for building something worth this moment.
