Why On-Demand Business System

On-Demand or SaaS or Cloud Computing is an emerging model where users can gain access to their applications

from anywhere through connected devices.

The following questions will help you identify your organization’s oppor-tunities to lower its total cost of ownership for an Business System / ERP and guide your businesss towards its overall objectives using, On-Demand futuristic approach.

1. What cost you actually(tangible and intangible) pay for just using an on premise or traditional system?

• Licence cost, maintenance cost, upgradation cost.• Never-endingcyclesofpatch/fix/QA/test.• Time and delay cost for new requirements.• Building and maintaining customizations and integrations.• Hardwares (server, database etc..), maintenance cost, ad hoc reporting,

data backups, replacement cost and tedious process documentation.

If you’re using a traditional ERP or any other system, you’re paying for all of the above and more. When you add it all up, from IT resources and in-frastructure to maintenance fees and patches, the totals are almost always morethanyouthink.Andthat’sbeforeconsideringfuturenewadditionalfunctionalities.

2. Are you upgrades expensive?

You own the system licence, you have your own IT team for managing the system but still your system needs upgradation and new functions causingsamehassles,asitwaswhenyoustartedonthesystem.Accordingto the statistics, the an organizations demands on business changes atleast once annually but still most of the organizations upgrade their system every 6-7 years.

Why? The cost and resource drain from IT and Process is too much for an organization to absorb if changes are made more frequently. This Catch-22 was unavoidable until now – there is an alternative to the up-grade treadmill.

3. Are you still paying for maintainence of something you dont require?

There’s nothing worse than paying for something that’s not being used. There is no return value for the functionalitites that you don’t need or use but you still pay for these because they are unnecessary additions at the time of system purchase.

4. What value your system generate for your organiza-tion?

Unlike traditional soft-ware that requires you to download and install updates yourself, on-demand products are updated automatically.

Whenever you use on-demand products you’re always using the latest and greatest ver-sion.

5. Is your organization spending more time managing manual processes and out-dated applications than becoming the next industry leader?

Spreadsheets, emails, and manual processes that were supposed to be automated but never were, paperwork and double data entry—sound familiar?Thesearetheexactthingsthatpreventorganizationsfromde-liveringthekindofstrategicvaluethatCEOsarelookingfortoday.Andwhile productivity gains have been promised in the past, in many cases, thecostandcomplexityofimplementationandmakingongoingchangeshas made these promises all but impossible to achieve.

7. Can you calculate your resource investment to host, maintain, upgrade, backup and secure your system?

The burden that an organization bears just to keep the on premise system running are of two types

• Tangible cost - Cost of running data center, hardware (purchase, in-stallation, annual maintenance etc) database software (licence, main-tenance), security, backup etc.

• Intangible cost - Burden of the team to maintain hardware, database, security, backup etc.

8. Do you need services from the other organization to manage your employee and managers self services?
