Business Intelligence のベンダーの一つであるGlassbeam社が自社のSaaSソリューションのバックエンドインフラにOpSource社のOpSource On-Demandを採用した、という記事。
OpSourceの総合的な機能に加え、既存顧客のSaaSへの移行を支援してくれた事が選択の大きな要因。 また、SaaSソリューションの立ち上げに要する期間を短縮する事が出来た事も評価されている。
SANTA CLARA, CA, Jan 27, 2009 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- OpSource(TM), the leader in Web operations, today announced that Glassbeam, an innovator in product intelligence, is leveraging OpSource On-Demand(TM) to deliver on-demand, 360 degrees product analytics. Glassbeam's unique solution provides a comprehensive view of a product's lifecycle by analyzing product operational data, enabling lower costs, higher revenue and improved customer satisfaction.
Historically, to gain meaning from operational data required building dedicated data warehouses and analytics applications -- a major undertaking. A typical project might involve several months of effort as well as expensive infrastructure and software licenses. In contrast, by offering a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution, Glassbeam can build their customers full, affordable solutions that easily and securely integrate into their corporate IT environments in as little as six weeks. Glassbeam chose OpSource On-Demand as its infrastructure because of its proven reputation as the most robust, cost-effective and secure SaaS solution available.
Puneet Pandit, CEO, Glassbeam, said, "We evaluated several SaaS providers but we chose OpSource On-Demand because it excelled on all fronts, from features, benefits and costs to time to market. OpSource has made it simple for us to build our business and, even more important, has made it painless for us to implement our product analytics solution. OpSource On-Demand gives us the security and reliability that our customers need as they move away from the burdensome systems of the past and experience the sheer power that on-demand business solutions bring."
"Glassbeam's product analytics solution is a great example of how the SaaS model can redefine business processes as we know them, unlocking valuable data in a more cost-effective and efficient way than ever before possible," said Treb Ryan, CEO, OpSource. "OpSource On-Demand is ideal for companies such as Glassbeam that are looking to bring innovative products quickly and securely to market. We look forward to scaling with Glassbeam as its business grows."
