The Premier Events for Companies

Who Need to Succeed in SaaS

 

From 1999-2001 what was then called the ASP market collapsed, bringing an abrupt halt to the growth of what was seen as a new and vibrant market in the softwaredustry. But times have changed and the ASP market, now called Software as a Service (SaaS)is back with a vengeance. New markets and opportunities await those publishers astute enough to make the move now to the SaaS model. The conference agenda covers:

  • Powerful keynote addresses by SaaS industry leaders
  • Critical data on the growth of SaaS, pricing, growth by market segments, and sector penetration information
  • Successful SaaS business and pricing models
  • Professional services and SaaS
  • Case studies on successful and unsuccessful SaaS implementations
  • Understanding and assuaging privacy and security concerns when dealing in markets where privacy and information security are paramount
  • The role of channels in a SaaS sales world
  • Compensating your sales force in a SaaS milieu
  • Learning the imporatance of SLA and escrow issues and concerns when selling SaaS
  • Transitioning from a licensed to a SaaS business model
  • Understanding when and whether to build your SaaS infrastructure or rent it
  • Tips and techniques for demonstrating, discussing, and publicizing SaaS products
  • Valuable insights into the role of professional services in a SaaS sales environment
  • And much, much more!
