OnDemand Solutions can help you to validate, accelerate, or implement your SaaS strategy.  Our services are focused on helping software companies in the following stages:

1. Evaluation – Companies who are evaluating if the SaaS is right for their business.

2. Planning – Companies who have decided to offer SaaS solution(s) but but who need assistance in building an integrated business, marketing and technical plan that spans multiple departments and levels in the organization.

3. Implementation – Companies who have developed a comprehensive plan for migrating to SaaS but who need additional resources and/or expertise to accelerate their time to market. 

1. Companies evaluating if SaaS is right for their business.

The first step in building a successful SaaS business is to evaluate if SaaS is even a good fit for your business, both technically and strategically.  For clients who are at this stage, we recommend our SaaS Evaluation Program (SEP).

The SaaS Evaluation Program is for clients who would like to evaluate whether SaaS is a good direction for their company to pursue. It is an analysis and evaluation of the opportunities, costs and efforts required to launch a SaaS version of the company’s software.  The result is a documented business case that validates whether the SaaS delivery model is a good fit for the organization, both technically and strategically.  Some clients also chose to have OnDemand Solutions create a light prototype of the new software for stakeholder alignment or funding purposes.

Benefits of the SEP include:

1. Cost-effective.  This program quickly and efficiently answers the question, "Should I migrate to SaaS?" It saves time and effort on unfocused research and development.

2. Time Saving.  Using OnDemand Solutions to evaluate the viability of the SaaS model enables you to continue focusing on running your business.

3. Validation.  As an expert in the industry, OnDemand Solutions is able to help ensure that decisions are based on facts rather than loose assumptions or gut feelings.  As an outsider, we are able to help clients who are not able to see the wood for the trees.

4. Experience.  OnDemand Solutions has expertise and experience in the SaaS model. SaaS is our exclusive focus. We can help clients to understand what is involved in migrating to SaaS from business, marketing, and technical perspectives.

5. Best Practices.  OnDemand Solutions uses proven methodologies to ensure accurate and comprehensive results.

2. Building a SaaS Roadmap and Action Plan for Software Companies Migrating to SaaS.

For software companies who have already decided to migrate to SaaS, we can help.  Our Advanced SaaS Accelerator Program (ASAP) will help you to develop an effective SaaS strategy and action plan encompassing business, marketing, and technical perspectives.

The ASAP is for clients who are just beginning or who have already started to migrate to SaaS but who need help to move forward. It is a comprehensive business, marketing, and technology program that will help to keep your planned SaaS implementation on track.  Once a company has decided that a SaaS version of their software is appropriate (either on their own, or after completing our SaaS Evaluation Program), the ASAP will help you to create a detailed execution plan for the development, marketing, pricing and deployment of your SaaS conversion. 

Benefits of the ASAP include:

1. ROI.  Customers who enroll in the ASAP program can save 3-10 times the cost of building and developing their SaaS businesses by avoiding common pitfalls and dramatically increasing time to market.

2. Speed-to-Market.  It is very challenging to complete a plan of this magnitude internally while attending to operations of an existing business.  Often, the planning process will become delayed because internal resources are usually shared with other objectives that may require immediate attention to run the current business.  OnDemand dedicates resources to completing the plan, allowing for a faster path to market than is possible using only internal resources.

3. Expertise – Nearly all facets of developing and operating a successful SaaS business are different from those of a traditional software company.  With focused experience and expertise in SaaS, we are able to help software companies who are accustomed to building, developing, and marketing traditional software companies understand these differences and use this knowledge to be successful in the SaaS model.

4. Integration.  A SaaS implementation affects all areas of the company, from marketing, pricing and sales, to customer support and development.  Our Advanced SaaS Accelerator Program integrates all of these components and delivers a comprehensive plan and step by step roadmap that extends well beyond the scope of any single internal department.
