SaaS: An Industry in FluxSeptember 18th, 2007 |

The Human Capitalist is weighing in on Software-as-a-Service (SaaS). Jason Corsello highlights the opinions of fellow blogger Phil Wainewright, who asserts that although SaaS has largely become a preferred delivery model, it’s not the only one that works, and often is predicated in unfounded fear from vendors. As Corsello points out, there are still many companies who prefer to run their applications themselves. The short story is that this is a market in flux and companies are changing their approaches and their opinions quickly.
This brings us back to the idea of choice. What’s to say that a talent management vendor can’t provide an HR software solution that is not on-demand or on-premise, but truly on-choice? Meaning, they can host it for you if you want, and when you’re ready or wanting to bring it in-house you can change to that format quickly and easily? Or vice versa?
The important thing to remember, regardless of the model that you choose, is that your vendor should be flexible, open, and willing to work with the needs you have today and grow with you as your company does - not make you apologize for being on the move.
