Why SaaS / Cloud implementations require less consultancy?
I experienced that the implementation of Saas-applications and Cloud services require substantial less consultancy than on premises implementations. Within my company AllSolutions I experience that we require arround 20 – 25 % of the days for implementation compared to on premises implementation from Microsoft Dynamics, Microsoft AX or SAP-implementations.
In general the implementation ERP SaaS versus ERP [...]

Dertien tips voor het het tarief van SaaS-diensten (blog 1/2).
Vaak krijg ik de vraag betreffende advies over de tariefsetting, het prijsbeleid, van SaaS-diensten. Wat moeten we doen, hoe bepalen we het tariefregime waartegen we de dienst in de markt zetten. Op deze vraag is geen generiek antwoord te geven. De prijs die voor een SaaS-dienst gevraagd kan worden is afhankelijk van diverse componenten, o.a. [...]

De resultaten van dit onderzoek bevestigden mijn verwachting dat het sluiten van een contract voor SaaS-dienstverlening sneller gaat dan voor ‘klassieke [...]

Verschil tussen ASP (Application Service Provisioning) en SaaS (Software As A Service)
De afgelopen tijd heb ik veel gesproken met softwareleveranciers. Veel leveranciers geven aan dat ze hun software ook leveren in de vorm van Software as a Service (SaaS). Uit de beschrijving van de dienstverlening merk ik dat er nog geen duidelijk verschil wordt gemaakt tussen ASP en SaaS-dienstverlening.

By “normal” software implementations, customers have their own infrastructure and if a software supplier gets bankrupt, they can continue using the software. There are no direct implications for the supported business processes. If [...]

Is there a role for Hosting Providers in the SaaS distribution channel?
On my last blog of the 15th of October on SaaS marketplaces, I discussed the necessity for SaaS players to have a successful distribution channel. What I didn’t mentioned, was what the role of managed hosting providers could be.

Why Telecom Operators (telco’s) should focus on the Software As a service (SAAS)-Market
Currently in the business market, telco’s are pushed to the level of commodity supplier. Prices for bandwidth drops, voice calls are reduced to fixed fee’s (mobile calls also?), IPVPN’s are replaced by normal ‘cheap’ Internet connections etc. So what is the future for those Telco’s.

Kortzichtige reactie op G-mailstoring van afgelopen periode.
De G-mailstoring van vorige week zet de SAAS-ontwikkelingen in een negatief daglicht volgens diverse media. Maar moeten we ons door de technische tegenslag van Google wel laten beperken. Is een storing een reden om meer vertrouwen te hebben in eigen IT-afdelingen dan in SAAS-leveranciers? Komen er geen storingen voor binnen bedrijven die hun eigen IT-omgeving [...]
