The Salesforce Platform
One of the many strengths of Jasmine Practice Management is that she’s built on top of the Force.com platform from Salesforce.com. Recently, Salesforce celebrated their 15 year anniversary and I want to take this opportunity to talk about why we chose the Force.com platform for Jasmine Practice Management.
Before we first conceived of Jasmine Practice Management, I worked at a company which provided a best in class software solution for non-profit companies to fundraise and manage donors and volunteers. The Force.com platform was the underlying infrastructure for this solution. In the time I worked with the Force.com platform, I was impressed with not only the innovative technology, but their great people and philanthropic mission at Salesforce.com.
Salesforce.com is a publicly traded, global cloud computing company started by Marc Benioff, who is also the CEO. Marc started Salesforce.com in March 1999 in his rented San Francisco apartment with the mission as The End of Software® and changing how software brings value to users. Salesforce.com is best known for its customer relationship management or CRM product. And, they are currently ranked as the most innovative company in America by Forbes magazine.
At the heart of the Force.com platform is the Customer Relationship Management or CRM, which helps you manage the interactions with your customers. They provide a highly secure and reliable infrastructure that is HIPAA and HITECH compliant. In addition, many large hospitals and healthcare companies are built on the Force.com platform.

As I evaluated different technologies to build Jasmine Practice Management, the Force.com platform was and still is the best in class technology platform to build a best of breed, cloud based practice management solution for acupuncturists.
In the coming weeks, I will write more about how the Force.com platform and Jasmine Software will change and innovate the acupuncture profession and help acupuncturists manage a more efficient practice and provide value to your patients.
As always, I love to hear from you. Feel free to drop me a line at contact@jasminepm.com.
