un-served mid-market?
The SaaS Model
6
• Traditional PPM solutions are built on an expensive license and implementation model
– Computer Associates Clarity, Hewlett Packard’s PPM, Planview, etc..
• Most organizations don’t need and/or can’t afford all of the features and functions that come with these solutions
• Vitreous offers 80% of the core PPM functionality “out of the box” at a fraction of the price and implementation time of these traditional solutions
• Software as a Service (SaaS) is a model of software deployment where an application is licensed for use as a service provided to customers on demand alleviating the customer's burden of implementing and managing the application
• proFUSION™ is a suite of applications
built around many of the core process
and data needs of an organization
• It provides integrated project,
resource, and financial portfolio
management tools
• It is built on a federated data model
that provides extensive reporting and
analytical capabilities
• It provides the framework for standard
service delivery processes and
transparent management
• It was designed to be integrated with
legacy and 3rd party point solutions
proFUSION™ provides the standard tool & central data repository
to support one-stop integrated management & control
