Why On-Demand?
Customer communities receive more traffic than other web applications, and because they encourage user participation, they can be subject to a larger variety of deliberate attacks than conventional sites. Ideas on-demand insulates your IT organization from these problems and offers distinct advantages over an on-site deployment including:
- Faster Implementation: Ideas on-demand removes the burden of another application that your IT department needs to install and monitor and helps remove internal compliance or security concerns.
- Lower Initial Costs: Our subscription-based licensing ensures there are no big upfront costs and avoids additional hardware or capacity costs.
- Greater Scalability: Ideas can grow as your community grows, and can handle community traffic spikes associated with adding new forums, products, or customer segments.
- Little Maintenance Burden: VersionOne monitors the servers, upgrades, and otherwise maintains Ideas, which can save up to 75% of the TCO of an in-house software application.
