SaaS Platform Gains Momentum

Here it comes the first SaaS platform which permits to organize multiple content-centric applications across different enterprise workgroups. SpringCM has also released Accounts Payable Automation Solution in integration with Intacct’s on-demand financial management and accounting applications which promises to improve productivity and reduction in overheads by making paper work outmoded in all accounting and financial industries.

It actually combines SpringCM’s content management capabilities and Intacct’s financial expertise. This will also support CPA firms. All the printed documents use instead electronic processes complete with audit trails and version control. To bring the two finance department and the accounting profession one step nearer to the real document management in the enterprise, this “first-ever combination of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) financial applications and document management” is helpful.

Till date it was very difficult for organizations to integrate and customize off-the-shelf ECM systems with additional third-party technologies for each departmental application. Also it used to led the expenses to approximately two to five times higher than the cost of the initial licenses. The new SpringCM platform allows applications to be developed once and deployed many times with all the SaaS advantages of low cost, rapid user adoption, and full integration with other systems via Web services.
