Steve Cakebread recently left salesforce.com (NYSE:CRM) as President to join a rival company called Xactly. Cakebread will be working as the CFO and administrative officer of Xactly. Xactly creates software for managing compensation of sales representatives.

Xactly is based in San Jose, Calif. Their client list includes PayPal and Pep Boys.
