Launched in 2006, Salesforce’s AppExchange predates Apple’s App Store by two years and has become one of the largest enterprise app marketplaces with over 2.2 million installs from 2,100 apps (44% free and 56% paid), according to the AppExchange homepage.



Unfortunately, usage statistics are not published, so rather I proxied popularity from the number of reviews. In addition, I also looked at those apps rate 4 stars or higher (out of 5).
