http://knowledgesum.blogspot.com/2007/01/saas-ing-up-staff-how-to-get-their-best.html
Forum for reflections on SAAS, workforce management and everything else in between. SaaS-ing Up The Staff How To Get Their Best. Monday, January 15, 2007. SaaS software solutions for HR include time and attendance, scheduling, project tracking, benefit management and other activities. Employees from multiple business units are able to login and enter the activities and projects they are working on. They can also consult their schedules, and request and review their planned time off. But what impressed me...

SAAS-powered HR: SaaS and VC (Part 2)
http://knowledgesum.blogspot.com/2007/07/saas-and-vc-part-2.html
Forum for reflections on SAAS, workforce management and everything else in between. SaaS and VC (Part 2). Thursday, July 26, 2007. One other idea about SaaS and VC that was recently voiced (I wish I could remember the contributor) was that a typical SaaS growth rate is so consistent and a relatively low risk that. A) A SaaS start-up that has a very steady growth rate can generally sustain itself on recurring cash stream, founder infusions, and loans, and so does not need VC infusion. On the other hand, t...

Salesforce Dot Bomb?
http://salesforcedotbomb.blogspot.com/2006/03/copyright-2006-howard-smith.html
The trend towards 'Amenity' in IT services. Tuesday, March 28, 2006. Will Salesforce.com bomb out in the large enterprise markets, or is the 1-800-NO-SOFTWARE gorilla a bomb under a complacent "big iron" IT industry? The force of a one customer strategy. So who the heck are Salesforce customers? Amazon targets the average book Joe, and has extended that lead to DVDs, electronics, apparel and more. Who’s the target for a CRM app? Small-to-medium sized business (SMBs)? Mom and pop shops? Unless you are an ...

Bohemian Rants: June 2006
http://criticalchain.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Kyunki SaaS ab HOT hai! Translated literally it would be: Because SaaS is HOT. Before the Indian channel surfers and Ekta-logy lovers interpret it differently. Let me clarify I am only refering to Software as a Service. The flavor of the season with the IT industry. Infact the word seems to be hotter than Web 2.0. So the blog is not about explaining the concept of SaaS. The SaaS phenomenon has been brewing for last couple of years, the Services industry has only got tuned to it since Bill Gates. An avid ...

Salesforce Dot Bomb?
http://salesforcedotbomb.blogspot.com/2011/10/salesforce.html
The trend towards 'Amenity' in IT services. Monday, October 10, 2011. Salesforce Dot Com is not a cloud Utility, it is a customer Amenity. The evolution of IT solutions towards increasing Amenity. Over 50% of IBM's revenue comes from services, not from products. In fact, the figure may be higher since sales of tangible goods such as systems, servers and software can easily obscure the associated support. When Jack Welch took over at GE in the early ‘80s, he realized that relying solely on product s...

SAAS-powered HR: VCs and SaaS (Part 1)
http://knowledgesum.blogspot.com/2007/05/vcs-and-saas-part-1.html
Forum for reflections on SAAS, workforce management and everything else in between. VCs and SaaS (Part 1). Sunday, May 20, 2007. David Linthicum makes a good point ( and a very dramatic one. About VCs getting overexcited and jumping on SaaS like a pack of wild dogs (vivid visuals here) without truly discriminating their potential which is bound to result in some disappointments down the road. Similarly, granularity is important, but as long as the company needs and is able to function effectively (and ef...
