We Run the Software — You Run Your Business
On-demand software, also referred to as software as a service (SaaS), delivers application functionality remotely, by means of subscription. Typically provided via the Internet, these applications are also accessed via a telephone or mobile device. Compared to software vendors that ship CDs daring their customers to install them on their own, we take responsibility for the software, servers, network, upgrades, and maintenance. The result is that on-demand applications allow companies to focus on their business, not their IT. Its all available, on-demand.
- Centralized hosting and management of software rather than at the customers' premise
- Secure, Internet-based access
- Periodic subscription/usage fee instead of large one-time license fee
A Better Way to Deliver Business Functionality
The Gartner Group estimates that two thirds of IT time and budget is spent maintaining infrastructure and dealing with updates. Leveraging emerging web 2.0 technologies provide economies of scale cost savings and robust functionality versus traditional on-premise applications.
Up to Date Technology
Traditional on-premise software systems are based on technology largely developed in the 1980's. Frankly, the Internet is largely an afterthought in the design of many of these systems. As new technology has emerged these legacy systems try to add these new features to their old technology, ultimately creating complexity and instability which the customer is responsible to maintain. On-demand applications leverage the latest technology the web has to offer, designed to keep up with the pace of technology change to ensure business can take advantage of the efficiencies and capabilities they have to offer.
Fresh Approach to Business Problems
Today's information worker is also a savvy Internet consumer, requiring the information they need at the moment they need it. Drawing on a diverse global labor pool for specialized skills, on-demand applications securely support workers where and when they need to work. Supporting more than just employees, on-demand solutions also face your customers and partners blurring the boundaries of business.
