Sector Overview: SaaS

It is certainly impressive to see SaaS move on from just being a paradigm a few years ago to more main stream. The challenge for SaaS is to penetrate the back haul of an enterprise, where typically ERP implementations reside. Not sure if that would be entirely possible due to the various challenges with customization, integration, impact to mission critical apps, availability, reliability etc.

But at the same token established ERP vendors like ORCL, and SAP beware - as penetration of SaaS into the enterprise back haul could hurt real bad!!
