The original Terms & Conditions said that the limit is not enforced, but if they find that you have violated the conditions then you automatically agree to purchase Full licenses for ALL your users. However, I can’t find that wording on any of the current price lists.

1. I am salesforce developer.
We are trying to build one application on Force.com- one app license.
As you know with force.com, there is a limitation of 10 custom objects per user.
I dont understand what does it mean.I have almost tested by creating 35 objects.But i could create only 25 tabs. Then what does the limit of 10 custom objects per user means.
Your help will be appreciated.
Thanking You,
Amit Saha

I would like to know if is true that for any company to obtain or purchase The Force.com platform has to go through a VAR.

You can signup online for free (typically for a trial period), and then purchase full licenses directly from Salesforce. I don’t think you need to involve a VAR.

Hi, I believe you meant $50/user/month.
