Salesforce.com Inc. introduced new software for human-resources management, stepping up a challenge to Oracle Corp. and SAP AG in the market for applications that help businesses run their operations.

The new product, called Rypple, will work in conjunction with Salesforce’s customer relationship management software and the Chatter social network for companies, Salesforce said today at its Cloudforce conference in San Francisco. Managers will be able to recognize employees who do standout work using Rypple features from within those applications, the company said.
