SaaS: Now Serving Large, Complex Enterprises

Successfully transitioning from adolescence to adulthood

“Large enterprises are absolutely embracing SaaS applications and on-premise vendors should be scared.” – Brian Sommer, CEO of TechVentive, Inc., “SaaS: Now Serving Large, Complex Enterprises”

In this report, Brian Sommer of TechVentive, a leading market-strategy and content firm, outlines the reasons SaaS products are well positioned to grow in large enterprises.

In his research, he learned:

• SaaS application technologies are mature enough for larger businesses.
• The implementation costs of SaaS solutions are routinely one-half or less of an on-premise solution.
• Executive committees will not green-light on-premise application implementations as capital is still constrained in most firms.
• SaaS decisions create partnerships unlike the typical software vendor relationships.
• Customers who moved to SaaS are also more inclined to do it again.
