The benefits of delivering enterprise software functionality on a service basis from remotely hosted infrastructure, outside the client firewall, include faster deployment times, reduced up-front costs and the ability to deliver standardized business processes based on centralized data. ClusterSeven SaaS enable customers to operate in real-time, rapidly responding to the industry's ever-changing regulatory environment.
The ClusterSeven SaaS solution provides options to monitor Microsoft Excel® spreadsheets held within the company firewall or in 'cloud-based' locations such as third-party SharePoint sites or Google® spreadsheets. The ClusterSeven Enterprise Spreadsheet Management® software is hosted on the Amazon EC2® cloud, where spreadsheet risk analysis may be directly interrogated or reports automatically dispatched to authorized users. Having sensitive financial information maintained outside the firewall, in a secure environment, reduces the risk of potential tampering.
"Coupling the strengths of ClusterSeven's robust application with the efficiencies of SaaS provides users with an on-time solution that conquers daily problems without the headache tied to traditional licensed software," said Ralph Baxter, CEO of ClusterSeven. "Users relying on such a model are able to accurately predict their costs, which assists in ongoing budgeting and planning for the future."
