City-based Aldea Infotech Pvt Ltd takes the credit of launching the novel concept of Software as a Service (SaaS) in India.
It mainly targets the small and medium businesses that want to harness the advantage of IT to improve their productivity and processes but cannot afford the high cost it entails. Interestingly, the global market for SaaS currently is $6.3 billion, of which India is only $7.3 million. The global market is on track to reach $19.3 billion by 2011 and Indian market by then will be around $580 million.
Siva Lakshmanan, chief executive officer, said that the company has brought this concept aimed at niche markets like Business Intelligence (BI), Enterprise relationship planning (ERP) and Customer Relation Management (CRM), the company.
Through SaaS, he said the company would offer software solutions as a subscriber service to clients and added that this would allow the corporate to derive a huge cost advantage as they pay only a fraction of the cost it would cost normally.
The client instead of investing huge amount in software and other infrastructure could now get the required application to meet their needs.
Moreovoer, Aldea would purchase the required software and infrastructure and would provide application service to the clients on subscription .
Apart from IT project, Aldea will also make foray into the human capital market. It has plans to establish a corporate finishing school that would help students bridge the gap between the expectations of the industry and the education proved in educational institutions. It will equip them with a valuable portfolio of technical skills as well as soft skills necessary to succeed.
The company has also entered into a strategic partnership with SAP for implementing SAP Business One, new ERP offering for the SMB segment. |

Aldea Infotech Private Limited today launched 'Software as a Service (SaaS),' a concept claimed to be unique in the niche markets of business intelligence and enterprise relationship planning (ERP) among others, wherein the company will offer software solutions as a subscriber service.
Addressing a joint press conference here, Aldea Chairman Ravindra Babu Kanthenti and Directors Sounder Rajan Sathappan and Siva Lakshmanan said SaaS was targeted at medium and small business enterprises which wanted to harness the advantage of IT to improve productivity and process but could not afford the high cost it entailed.

This was likely to touch 580 million US Dollar by 2011.
The service would allow corporates to derive huge cost advantage as they paid only a fraction of the cost. If a company planned to have its own in-house IT team, the cost of infrastructure, overheads and the given attrition rate would result in a great loss of time and productivity, they claimed.
Apart from IT projects, they would also foray into human capital market besides establishing a corporate finishing school to help students bridge the gap between industry expectations and education provided today.
The proposed school will equip them with a valuable portfolio of technical and soft skills necessary for success. This world-class school will bring about technically qualified IT architects who will be capable of working and managing large IT projects. An estimated 5,000 students would have passed out by 2010, they claimed. |
