The Top 10 of On-Demand

Organizations large and small are running to the on-demand model for business applications. On-demand is the solution to many of the IT problems associated with the traditional on-premise software model. With no software or hardware to buy, install, maintain, or upgrade, the popularity of on-demand grows with IT organizations that are increasingly asked to do more with less.

Here are the top 10 advantages of on-demand software compared to the traditional on-premise software:

Little time, great value - VendorPal™ minimizes the risk involved in implementing new software by eliminating the need for a larger up-front capital investment and shortening the set-up time. Full implementation usually takes less than two weeks. According to a recent study by Triple Tree and the Software and Information Industry Association (SIIA), on-demand deployments are 50 to 90 percent faster, with a total cost of ownership five to ten times less than installed software.

Better adaptability - Successful businesses are continually changing and growing. The VendorPal™ system continues to grow and will adapt with your changing business. There are no limits to the number of variables (key characteristics) you can use to track your product's performance or to the number of users you can have on your team. In addition, the VendorPal™ IT department is continually developing new tools to meet your changing business needs.

Cheaper start-up – It's easy to see why on-demand software is much less expensive, initially. There is no hardware to purchase or maintain. There are no operating systems, database servers, or application servers to install. Best of all, there is no need to expend staffing resources to manage it all.

Saving in the long-run – The long-term savings are even more significant. On-premises software put stains on IT departments, both in time and money spent on maintenance and dealing with updates. On-demand software makes this totally unnecessary.

Easy upgrades - Customers of on-demand applications benefit from instant deployment of new versions, which means the entire user base is always on the latest version, taking immediate advantage of the new features and innovations available with each release.

Better service – Our goal is to ensure maximum uptime and continuous availability and we do so by using the best technologies, policies, and procedures to ensure security at the application, and network level. The VendorPal™ staff is also available to respond to your individual needs with email support 7 days-a-week, phone representatives Monday through Friday 9-5 (CST) and a knowledgeable team who are available to meet all of your needs, including additional training and reporting support.

Satisfied and productive users - A major reason on-premises deployments often fail is due to user resistance. Data that is difficult to retrieve and analyze results in low usage. VendorPal™ 's easy-to-use interface provides all users with simple to retrieve and easy to understand data that will result in satisfied and productive users.

Easier for administrators - Administrators can tailor access to the system's components, as well as the system itself. By defining the characteristics with which the data will be viewed, you can customize the system to your company's needs. Administrators can rest assured that all users will have access only to the data for which they are authorized.

Fast responses – There is no longer a need to wait a year for the next software update. VendorPal™ maintains open lines of communication with its customers and regularly develops programs and modifications that benefit the entire community of users, deploying them for immediate use.

Focused on true value - By eliminating many of the problems related to traditional application development, the on-demand model frees our IT department to focus on developing software solutions that deliver real business value.
