#Microsoft has signed a six-year agreement with #HP for its Salesforce-killer cloud software, #MicrosoftDynamics. Dynamics is Microsoft's "customer relationship management" tool, which helps salespeople track interactions with customers and prospects. It's not surprising that HP would cozy up to Microsoft in this way. HP, the PC/printer company that was created after HP split itself into two companies, is very dependent on Microsoft and on Windows for its PC business. The two have always been close partners in all sorts of ways. But there's a catch. Before the split, HP was a prominent customer of Salesforce. In 2012, HP not only signed on to use Salesforce's CRM tool, Sales Cloud, but also a bunch of other related stuff from #Salesforce. HP was one of Salesforce's largest deals that year.
