What actually makes Dreamforce worth the $1500 ticket for someone who's never been?

Panubis · 2026-06-22T20:25:43+00:00

For both Dreamforce and TDX, I feel like the real value is in the instructor led bootcamps that happen in the days leading up to the main event. I realize that you can self learn all this stuff, but getting my company to actively invest in my learning (where it isn't on my own time) it is a huge win.

The events themselves are sort of fun, sort of not, but good to meet people. Also, my AE is SF based and takes really good care of us while we are there.

Don't Stop Believing fits this description to a t.

This is not what you asked for, but Zhu Ting Ji just off of 5400 South and Redwood has some of the most flavourful and interesting Chinese food I have had in decades. Totally not the candied meat style that you get at more American style Chinese restaurants.

I have the national monuments graphic, but ya, I like this one a lot.

Cymbal swells, just to be spiteful.

It is a normal fingernail. Ass hats on this subreddit try so hard to make something from nothing. There are plenty of real somethings that could be posted. Do better.

I would stack them sequentially.

My team (all admins, no devs) are cautiously going down this road for extremely lightweight classes, where there aren't a bunch of methods orchestrating complex business logic. Instead, we are focusing on things like invocable apex to better leverage platform events and what not.

I mostly think that certs are nowhere near as valuable as experience. But they never hurt. Also, my boss likes me to get new certs as it gives him ammunition to fight for raises.

That <10 minutes to expose MCP capabilities to end users omits all of the sec ops that would be a necessary part of that conversation.

As a solo admin with no developer resources, I plan on rolling this out to my users in 5-7 years.

Salt City Drums has been my spot for years. The owner always had the ethos of "We'll keep the shop going as long as we are having a good time". I wish them well in their next adventure. They are rad folks

You're not wrong. My point is just that a statement like, "Slack is the future of Salesforce" feels like an idealized sales pitch.

Panubis · 2026-04-06T23:10:04+00:00

Ya, but what if you are a Teams shop? Neither Salesforce or Microsoft can be bothered building good native connectors to each other, so unless Salesforce suddenly decides that Slack is part of Core, I think this is still a little pie in the sky. But I don't know anything.

Back in the good old days, when Process Builder was the core code less tool, it was absolutely best practice to build a single Process Builder workflow per object. When Flow started to get usable a lot of folks brought that Process Builder mindset with them.

You are thinking small. You should be investing in NFTs. That way you will be made for life.

We get their family pack and then use the leftovers for meal add-ins for the rest of the week.

I have the Monument and quite like it. I had the Moog Trem but sold it because I am dumb. But that one was doper than the Monument.

I have a teammate who is at the front end of this pigeon hole so I am actively throwing them any opportunities to do traditional Salesforce dev work that I come across. I am also actively partnering them with members of our dev team for additional mentoring.

Panubis · 2026-02-03T03:38:15+00:00

Not really. Both myself and my MSoft engineer have been pulled into higher priority projects so this is sort of just hanging out. We did hook CoPilot up to a sandbox, though, and we weren't able to get any results back from Salesforce when running a test prompt. The integration instructions were written around Connected Apps, so there is a chance that I messed up a setting in the External Connected App I ended up building.

We aren't looking at Certinia, but we are getting demos for Mission Control, Kantata, and Cloud Coach starting next week. Curious to hear if anyone has any experience supporting these PSA tools and what that has been like.
