Leading Cloud IT and SaaS research firm Saugatuck Technology, which
has surveyed nearly 7,000 SaaS and Cloud users since 2003,
indicates that between one-third and one-half of all small and
midsized enterprises worldwide will use Cloud-based solutions for
core business applications by year-end 2012. "Businesses see
tremendous opportunity and benefits in using Cloud-based, SaaS
applications for even the most critical applications," according to
Saugatuck SVP and head of research Bruce Guptill. "They can reduce
capital, operating and IT costs, simplify software management, and
improve how they manage their business, all at the same
time."
