MICROSOFT, SALESFORCE SETTLE ON PATENTS

Microsoft said it has received compensation from Salesforce.com under a patent infringement case it had brought against the latter company, but provided few details. In a press release, the Redmond, Wash.-based company said it had settled the cases including those Salesforce.com had also filed against Microsoft. The agreement gave Salesforce.com coverage under Microsoft's patent portfolio with reciprocating coverage for Microsoft under Salesforce.com’s patent program.

The only detail given about the terms otherwise was the statement that "Microsoft indicated that it is being compensated by Salesforce.com based on the strength of Microsoft's leading patent portfolio in the areas of operating systems, cloud services and customer relationship management software."
