Created to assess the maturity level of Brazilian companies that offer software as a service in Brazil, the survey, carried out by ABES (Brazilian Association of Software Companies), will be available through this link: surveymonkey.com/s/comitesaasc until the day September 18, next Friday, so that industry professionals can answer it.
The entire company participating in the study will be invited to the dissemination event when they will get to know the results first hand. This is an initiative of the Saas Committee (Software as a Service) created recently by ABES in order to identify best practices, foster innovation and guide companies interested in migrating their solutions to the software as a service commercialization model (SaaS).
“Based on the results of the study, the entity intends to obtain an overview of SaaS (software as a service) among companies in the software sector and will be able to identify which are the points that companies need to invest in order to appropriate their services or launch the business” , explains Carlos Sacco, Marketing Director at ABES.
The Committee's coordinator, Lauro de Lauro, Dualtec's CEO, explains that associated and non-associated companies of the entity may participate in the research. “We want to carry out an analysis on the stage of this new business model in the Brazilian software sector, in order to identify its needs and learn about its performance. As the work and studies progress, one of the Committee's objectives is to create a Brazilian certification that demonstrates the maturity of software companies in relation to SaaS, which reflects the quality and excellence of services ”, says Lauro.
The quantitative survey will have questions about the infrastructure of companies that offer services in the cloud; on the maturity of the products offered; contractual issues, legal and financial aspects of the business.
Owners or technical managers of IT companies of all sizes will be able to participate in the survey. The study will be evaluated by the members of the committee, formed by professionals with extensive experience in the ICT sector.
To answer the survey, go to: surveymonkey.com/s/comitesaasc. It will be available until 08/28.
