Dreamforce 2025 Recap: Simplicity, Connection, and the Halo Effect

Dreamforce 2025 highlighted a clear message for the industry: innovation succeeds when it simplifies how people work and connect.

For Aviso, this year’s Dreamforce became a celebration of collaboration, shared learning, and the power of intelligent simplicity. We brought together customers, advisors, investors, and revenue leaders to discuss how AI is transforming the way teams operate, make decisions, and deliver value to their customers.

The spotlight was on Halo, our AI Single Pane of Glass for Revenue, which drew exceptional attention and enthusiasm from every visitor who experienced it. Attendees also got a firsthand look at Aviso's AI Avatars in Action, your team’s dream revenue partners, brought to life through immersive experiences on Apple Vision Pro. These avatars demonstrated the next frontier of AI collaboration, where human intuition meets intelligent automation.

We also hosted Agentic implementation sessions with industry experts who shared how enterprises can move from AI experimentation to measurable impact. These sessions provided a practical roadmap for integrating Halo’s intelligence into daily workflows and turning innovation into tangible business results.

A Week of Collaboration and Connection With Salesforce Alumni Reunion

Dreamforce week has always been about more than technology. It is about people, shared journeys, and the stories that continue to shape the Salesforce ecosystem long after the conference ends. This year, Aviso’s CEO, Trevor A. Rodrigues Templar, partnered with Elay Cohen, CEO of SalesHood, and Drew Sechrist, Co-Founder and CEO of Connect The Dots, to co-host the Salesforce Alumni Reunion, one of the most anticipated gatherings of the week.

Held on October 13, the event brought together an extraordinary group of Salesforce alumni, including founders, advisors, and leaders who began their careers under the same cloud. It was not a typical networking mixer but a celebration of shared purpose and long-standing relationships. Attendees described it as a “must-attend” tradition and a refreshing counterpoint to the high-energy sessions of Dreamforce.

Conversations at the reunion reflected on how far the Salesforce ecosystem has come and how the alumni community continues to act as a bridge across companies, ideas, and industries. Many of those who once helped shape Salesforce are now driving innovation in new ventures, mentoring emerging talent, and advancing responsible growth in AI and revenue technology.

The event reinforced a simple but powerful truth: while technology evolves, community remains the foundation. Bringing former colleagues and partners together in an informal environment encouraged authentic dialogue that inspires collaboration and sparks new ideas. It reminded everyone that the strongest networks are not built in boardrooms, but in moments of shared trust, connection, and purpose.

Aviso at Dreamforce

Later in the week, we hosted an evening at the Palace Hotel with customers, advisors, and revenue leaders. The focus remained on what truly matters: creating strategic relationships, experiencing immersive product demos, and defining what it means to build the next unfair advantage in business.

Among all the highlights, the introduction of Halo stood out the most.

The response from visitors was overwhelmingly positive. Halo captured attention because it delivers something every revenue team desires today: clarity and simplicity. In a world full of dashboards and disconnected systems, Halo provides one unified view that brings forecasting, deal, and conversational intelligence together in real time.

Halo acts as a constant AI layer that sees what users see, anticipates what comes next, and executes when prompted. It brings intelligence and execution together in one simple experience.

Immersive AI Experiences: HYPERVSN 3D Avatars and Vision Pro

At Dreamforce 2025, Aviso brought the future of revenue technology to life through immersive and futuristic experiences that combined AI, holography, and spatial computing. Using HYPERVSN’s 3D digital avatar technology, which merges artificial intelligence with 3D holography, we created meaningful and memorable interactions for forward-thinking business leaders. Attendees engaged directly with Aviso’s lifelike avatar, which represented their “dream revenue partner,” demonstrating how AI can enhance collaboration, storytelling, and customer engagement in ways that feel both intuitive and human.

We also gave participants a hands-on glimpse of the future of RevTech through Apple Vision Pro and Ray-Ban Meta AI Glasses. Visitors were able to experience Halo’s capabilities in spatial environments, interact with digital revenue partners, and visualize how AI can simplify the most complex workflows.

A few lucky attendees even won the chance to take home one of these next-generation devices, making the experience both inspiring and unforgettable.

Why Halo Resonated

Many leaders who visited our booth shared a similar story. Their tech environments have become crowded, fragmented, and difficult to manage. Halo’s design and experience struck a chord because it fits naturally into the tools teams already use.

From Salesforce to Gmail to LinkedIn, Halo works everywhere without forcing anyone to switch screens or break focus. It provides live coaching, real-time insights, contextual prompts, and intelligent follow-ups that make every user feel in control and confident.

As one attendee described it, “This is how AI should feel. Helpful, seamless, and human.”

Seeing the Reality Behind the AI Hype

One of the most powerful moments from Dreamforce 2025 came from Reddy Mallidi, Aviso’s advisor, who perfectly captured what makes Halo stand out in a crowded AI landscape.

Reddy summed it up perfectly: “There’s hype, there’s reality, and there’s a big gap. But what I saw at Aviso’s event was real.”

Halo is not a concept or a demo. It is already in production, delivering results for revenue teams every day. It brings everything a sales organization needs together in one place, including leads, intelligence, CRM updates, and forecasting.

What makes Halo stand out is its foundation that combines large language models, quantitative models, and time-series analytics to deliver accurate and context-rich insights. As Reddy shared, even the most challenging questions received precise and practical answers, and the productivity impact is clear with teams seeing up to 50 percent gains in efficiency.

Looking Ahead

Dreamforce 2025 reminded us of our purpose at Aviso. We exist to make AI work for people and to bring clarity to complex workflows. The strong interest and feedback around Halo reinforced that revenue teams are ready for a change. They no longer want more dashboards or isolated systems. They want something that helps them act faster and think smarter in the moment.

The reactions we received confirmed a growing desire among revenue leaders to simplify their tech stacks and remove unnecessary complexity. Halo meets that need with elegance and efficiency.

As we look ahead, we are continuing to build on that vision. Halo will keep evolving as the single intelligent window that helps every seller, manager, and leader work more efficiently and win more often.

Because in the end, success comes from doing, winning, and repeating. Book a demo to know more or see the Halo effect at aviso.com/halo
