In this case study, you can read about YouSAAS, a software vendor who achieved an increase of over 20,000 users in six months due to cloud computing.
Founded in 2006, YouSAAS is a Microsoft® Gold Certified Partner that offers its reseller and independent software vendor partners a shared platform to sell hosted solutions.
Customers use a Web browser to access the solutions through the YouSAAS Desk portal. YouSAAS observed the commoditization of Microsoft e-mail and collaboration technologies and wanted to integrate them into its business model. It did just that by adding the Microsoft Business Productivity Online Standard Suite to the solutions available through the YouSAAS Desk.
Now customers can also subscribe to Microsoft-hosted enterprise-class communication and collaboration technologies. YouSAAS is increasing subscription revenue, strengthening customer relationships, and driving profitability through new opportunities for customized YouSAAS solutions built on offerings from Microsoft Online Services. The end result was an increase of over 20,000 users in a six month period for YouSAAS.
Adding Microsoft Online Services to the YouSAAS marketplace gives our customers more choice and is a key strategy for long-term revenue growth.
