Last week, BScaler released its enhancement of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), called SaaS Plus to directly address - among other things - the integration issue facing SaaS users and its critique.

As SaaS is fast becoming the hottest among the next-generation-software category, many current SaaS vendors and legacy software providers in disguise are now, in effect, SaaS-ifying their outmoded solutions in an attempt to ride with the wave. 

And unlike many SaaS vendors who offer "Integrated Business Solutions", BScaler’s Enterprise Resource Manager (ERM) (all versions) come completely integrated AS IS to customers, requiring no more “Partners”/IT consultants to complete the deployment.

"I wish that our point solution vendors were more honest in making their outrageous ‘Integrated’ SaaS business solutions claim”, says Lee Boylan of BScaler.

“A SaaS Point Solution per se is good, and some are actually very useful but many of our competitors are guilty of misleading advertising. For many of them, 'Integrated', 'Integratable' and 'To Be Integrated' amount to the same thing in their own SaaS industry jargon", he accuses.

Phil Wainewright of ZDNet said, "Salesforce [must] solve the integration challenge without sinking back to the old tightly-coupled, labour intensive ways.." and Lee Gomes of The Wall Street Journal:  "Hiring the necessary consultants for a medium-to large SaaS implementation can easily double the cost of the project.."  BScaler agrees that integration is the key issue to consider with SaaS deployment for mission-critical functions.

Integration is best handled at the initial design level, according to BScaler, not as a last-minute configuration task.
