Putting Some Numbers Behind SaaSNetwork Computing just released a lengthy evaluation of the costs of buying and running either Microsoft Dynamics CRM 3.0 Professional or Oracle Siebel CRM Pro vs. using Salesforce.com Professional's software as a service (SaaS). "Our scenario demonstrates that SaaS will save $95,000 to $135,000 over a licensed package over three years. This is a significant sum, especially for SMBs." They go on to note that most SMBs are unlikely to be able to build out the redundant architecture of Salesforce.com, either. Posted by Joe Caponi at 03:27 PM, March 7, 2007 This is a public forum.
