SaaS Roadblocks Falling

ComputerWorld has reported on a speech by Bob Moul, CEO of Boomi Inc, in which Moul says that most IT executives' objections to SaaS are becoming non-issues. SaaS vendors can seek out SAS 70 certification in order to assure data protection. Vendors are also coming up with ways to offer customization to individual customers and integration is becoming much smoother.

On the issue of security, an interesting release was reported by TMCnet. Anakam.TFA has introduced a two-factor authentication suite specifically designed for SaaS providers.The company pointed out that cost-effective two-factor authentication was critical to protecting revenue streams and would stop unauthorized access or password sharing.

Actually we've had very good take-up for SaaS delivery of our solution, primarily with Fortune 500 companies, which tells me this delivery model has finally come of age. The security aspect of it has only come up once, and our hosting service is SAS 70 compliant, so it became a non-issue almost immediatly. Not to mention the revenue model associated with SaaS is awesome, not only does the money keep coming in, we've already made half of our revenue target for next year.
