What is a Salesforce Native Application?

Same user interface. Same infrastructure. Same database

Native Force.com Applications

Native Force.com applications are applications built entirely on the salesforce.com platform. They sit inside salesforce infrastructure and are hosted, managed and delivered by salesforce.com. They essentially are salesforce.com.

Apttus pioneered the way with salesforce with Force.com. Apttus approached salesforce years before force.com existed and experimented with the core platform. History now speaks for itself. Apttus success helped salesforce create Force.com and a new era was born. Apttus has deep salesforce experience and is the longest standing and largest native application provider for salesforce.com. And salesforce.com uses Apttus.
