Overview A confluence of factors is driving customers to adopt a new generation of web-based, on-demand business applications. The emergence of these Sofware as a Service (SaaS) solutions is being driven by three primary forces:

Growing frustration among end-users and executives with the costs and complexities associated with traditional, on-premise applications
Broad-based acceptance of consumer-oriented, on-demand services
Rapid evolution of enabling technologies which make it more economical to develop and deliver SaaS solutions

This paper will discuss these challenges and how ISVs can overcome barriers to success.
