Press Release Summary = e-Zest announced today its launch of new Outsourced Product
Development (OPD) service 'SaaS enable your Software Products' for Independent
Software Vendors and technology product companies

Press Release Body = Software as a Service (SaaS) is a broad term that refers to a
model for hosting commercial software that is delivered remotely to customer
organizations. Nearly every established software vendor is being forced to determine
how to revamp their legacy application business models to join the SaaS movement.

"e-Zest understand creating a SaaS offering is a significantly challenging because
nearly every aspect of the SaaS business is different from the standard
software-licensing model. Beyond the business model, the technology team also needs
to deal with issues of security, multi-tenancy, and manageability that are of much
greater concern than in a typical commercial software product." Said Devendra
Deshmukh - CEO Devendra Deshmukh

According to Gartner, a third of all software vendors will transition to SaaS model
in the next 3 years, and 40% of new applications will be built on it; which means if
you are not on the SaaS platform, your competition might soon be.
Ashish Gupta CTO e-Zest, explained "SaaS applications are fundamentally different in
architecture, involving scalable, configurable, multi-tenant architectures. They
also have higher complexity in terms of ensuring reliability, scalability,
configurability, performance, and security. e-Zest understands these application
architecture drivers and helps our ISV customers in making critical architecture
trade-off decisions which can have long term impact on technology and business
scalability."

"While the benefits to both end users and SaaS vendors themselves are obvious,
transitioning is not a simple challenge. Independent Software Vendors (ISV) that
wants to take advantage of the growing SaaS market face considerable business and
technical challenges, but the efforts can be rewarding. Having built some of the
early pioneering SaaS applications, e-Zest has the experience and methodology to
make your products available on the SaaS platform." Amol Pande COO proclaimed.
e-Zest provides this service 'SaaS enable your Software Products' for migrating
existing software product to either Pure or Hybrid SaaS application platform.
