It took 11 years, but salesforce.com finally created an “Admin Zone” at their annual Dreamforce conference. They have a Developer Zone for the coders, a Foundation Zone dedicated to their nonprofit customers, a Small and Medium Business Zone and now one for Admins. Don’t get me wrong, salesforce.com wasn’t ignoring System Administrators in previous years. There have always been plenty of sessions dedicated to administrators of all skill levels.

Even though your instance of Salesforce is internal to your business having a memorable name that allows your users to connect to it is worth exploring.
