NEW YORK, Sept. 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Dimension Data, the US$6 billion global ICT solutions and services provider, and Montclare, a leading provider of strategic and operational Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) consulting, have teamed up to share their SaaS domain expertise during a four-city seminar series titled, "Building a Profitable SaaS Business." The educational seminars are targeted at independent software vendors (ISVs) seeking to make a successful transition to a SaaS business model, as well as existing SaaS companies looking to scale and improve their business by learning best-practices.
Dimension Data and Montclare will teach attendees about building an optimal SaaS business model, how organizations can adopt SaaS to best achieve business goals and will offer real-world examples of successful transition stories. The events will also convey the insights needed to help attendees build a more successful SaaS business by covering the advantages and challenges of switching to a new business model that is required to effectively deliver SaaS solutions.
"Montclare and Dimension Data have worked together with a number of ISVs to optimize everything from their business model, product and pricing mix, through to application architectures and operational best practices for software delivery," said Jason Cumberland, vice president of SaaS Solutions at Dimension Data's ITaaS Unit. "Migrating to SaaS poses many challenges and potential benefits for ISVs. We'll explain how other companies have achieved this successfully, and how they capitalized on their existing assets by laying a sensible but swift path to satisfying their customers' need for SaaS solutions."
"Dimension Data and Montclare have helped a variety of ISVs break into this large and growing market," said Kevin Dobbs, CEO at Montclare. "During this educational tour, ISVs will learn how to make the transition to SaaS, while existing SaaS companies will learn how to optimize their business models, control costs, improve revenues and deliver world-class software solutions."
