…advantages and drawbacks
Integration
The question of integration of ARCHIBUS On Demand with
other corporate solutions often comes up in project
deployments.
By the very fact that a SaaS is delivered over the internet,
the integrated application (other vendors software) needs
to have a deep capability in accepting web services and
other machine to machine communications.
Apart are the security issues, and other infrastructure
problems with the other application to integrate. This is
usually one of the key point to be solved in the ARCHIBUS
On Demand deployment, we are flexible enough in our
product offering to solve it.
Our Business Partners have a high class expertise on these
integrations.
Performance
Internet infrastructure and connectivity is the basis of the
ARCHIBUS On Demand.
Performance of ARCHIBUS On Demand could be the same
or better than an ARCHIBUS On Premises (self-hosted)
solutions, it only depends on the bandwidth.
Delay is one of the worst effects in the SaaS performance,
the delay could be problematic when the user and the
SaaS Server are separated by large physical distances,
because of that we provide our "Authorized Hosting
Partners" (Data Centers) close to you.
Shared connections also could be a drawback when
various users are competing for the same information in
the same time, not so much frequent. That's why we serve
on the basis of concurrent user(s) per month to solve your
occasional bottle necks.
…key factors
Project Planning and Design
To create an effective ARCHIBUS On Demand solution
requires developing and documenting the business
processes, allocating these processes to functional
operations and carrying out the system design. These
activities must be conducted on the same level of precision
as an ARCHIBUS On Premises implementation.
While deployment is greatly facilitated in SaaS, the work of
discovery, design, configuration, roll out, end user training,
and testing must still be carried out by experienced
professionals like ARCHIBUS Business Partners .
Security and Reliability
ARCHIBUS On Demand projects are hosted in ultra
secure and redundant facilities so that even if one of the
sites were physically destroyed, the operation would
continue through an alternate site.
Data is backed up on a regular basis so if a user should
inadvertently mess up or delete their data, it can be quickly
restored.
Hosting platform is multi-layer, separated by firewalls and IP
addresses of the servers are private
Data is always property of the customer and is delivered to
them in case the service is discontinued.
…rejections
Where is our data?...
Why externalized?
Are there something more crucial than the money?
Why in a bank? …Because it is just a confidence matter.
There is simply nor better neither secured place to have it.
…Like your data in our
ARCHIBUS Authorized Hosting Partners.
Why to pay so much?
Have we paid the cost of ownership after
three years?
No… after 7 years of updated and excellent service, your
company still saves over 11% as compared to On Premises
self hosted traditional method.
Please don't forget hosting and infrastructure hidden cost.
Probably you are not estimating all together hardware, software, software
upgrades, infrastructure cost, in both cases…
