21 Part IV ERP Licensing Models SaaS Focus

22 Definitions and Technology Distinction between SaaS and Cloud Computing: Cloud computing is the computing power characterized by: Disembodied computing power (based on internet technology) that is consumed where and when it is needed Loosely coupled services running on agile, scalable infrastructure Network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (networks, servers, storage, applications, and services) SaaS refers to the software applications using the cloud computing power SaaS is not: Grid computing which is the usage of several computers to process a specific instruction Thin Client which is a computer or computer program in the client-server architecture Most established SaaS solution models are: Software as a Service (SaaS): Providers offer business applications using cloud computing power (for example: NetSuite ERP, ConstantContact, Salesforce) Platform as a Service (PaaS): Customers add their own applications to an associated SaaS platform (for example: Salesforce Appxchange, NetSuite SuiteFlex) Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS): Rent the infrastructure and the related components (servers, storage, networks) 21

23 SaaS Economics From economics perspective the main differentiation of on-premise model and SaaS is a shift from capital expense to operating expense. The cost saving related to upfront capital expense does not systematically lead to save costs in operating expenses: The SaaS model might not make fiscal sense in the following situations: Relatively small capital budget Organization's flexibility in the capital budget rather than the operating budget Other factors impacting the scale of any potential cost savings include: The efficiency of a company's data center as compared to the cloud vendor's The company's existing operating costs The level of adoption of cloud computing The type of functionality being expected from SaaS applications Economics of SaaS for large scale companies is not there yet. Small to mid-size companies might benefit from SaaS economics if they have the right model for the operating expenses vs. capital expense 22

24 SaaS Current Trends Current trends show high rate of adoption of SaaS solutions. SaaS ERP is following the same trend in SMB market. SaaS ERP in the large organization market is lagging behind the SMB market trend. Currently Considering 28% 36% 63% Currently Using % 2007 Not Considering 9% 32% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 23

25 SaaS Current Adoption Growing number of SMB companies are using SaaS business applications Figure 2 SaaS Adoption By Application "For which of the following software applications is your firm using SaaS?" Sales force automation Customer service and support Human capital management Web 2.0 technologies, such as bolgs, wikis, and RSS ERP Marketing automation software Collaboration software Content mangement Order mangement Enterprise resource planning Project-based solutions Spend management or supplier relationship management Supply chain management Software supporting a specific industry process Product life-cycle management Other 9% 8% 8% 5% 6% 22% 22% 21% 20% 18% 17% 16% 15% 30% 36% Base: 103 US packaged application software decision-makes that are currently using SaaS Source: Enterprise And SMB Software Survey, North America And Europe, Q Source: Forrester Research, Inc. 24

28 Why Not Cloud / SaaS Services? Q: Rate the challenges / issues of the 'Cloud' / on-demand model (1=not significant, 5=very significant) Security 88.5% Performance 88.1% Availability 84.8% Hard to integrate with in-house IT 84.5% Not enough ability to customize 83.3% Worried Cloud will cost more 81.1% Bringing back in-house may be difficult 80.3% Not enough major suppliers yet 74.6% 65% 70% 75% 80% 85% 90% Source: IDC Enterprise Panel, August 2008 n = 244 % responding 3, 4 or 5 27
