Salesforce Editions
We offer bundles of features and services, each geared toward specific business needs.
These bundles, called editions, share a look and feel but vary by functionality and pricing. Some customers start with a basic edition and upgrade to a more feature-rich edition as business requirements evolve.
It’s easy to learn which features are available in various editions. Just search for features in Salesforce Help. Toward the top of every topic, you can see the editions in which the feature’s available. Here’s a quick description of each edition that we offer.

You can continue to use your Contact Manager, Group, Personal, Performance, or Database.com Edition org or purchase one of the editions that are currently sold: Professional, Enterprise, and Unlimited. Developer Editions are also still available for free. - Controlled Setting Edition: What’s Different or Unavailable in Controlled Setting Edition
Controlled Setting Edition and Controlled Setting products are versions of Salesforce applications that give customers enhanced control of data flows within Salesforce. The Controlled Setting Edition restricts the use of features that require connections outside of Salesforce. Because of this isolation restriction, some features are unavailable. Controlled Setting Products also restrict the use of features that require external connections or that are turned off by default.
