Commentary

What's more, common demons haunt these centralized services – security vulnerabilities and a still elusive holy grail of universal interoperability. The question is whether Loyakk can execute and surmount its big and entrenched centralized rivals that also make switching costs enormous and painful. In short, ask any company who uses it how anxious it is to abandon Salesforce. Now multiply that exponentially.
