"We are so glad to provide our customers with the SaaS-based option." says Angus Chan, product manager of Visual Paradigm. "From now on, customers can pay a low monthly subscription fee to use our business process modeling software on demand, eliminating the heavy initial investment. We hope that the reduction of cost allows more front-line employees to participate in process improvement initiatives."
SaaS-based business process modeling software is particularly favorable for companies who want to allow employees from any level to join any process improvement initiatives. "We allow the entire business to participate in process improvement without the high upfront cost." says Angus Chan, product manager of Visual Paradigm. "Front-line employees are the actual executor of workflow planned, but interestingly they never play any role in process improvement. Part of the reason is due to the limitation of traditional modeling software, and part due to budget. If you have 100 or more front-line employees, you may need to invest thousands (or even tens of thousands) on the required software tools or systems for everyone to know the workflow design and to express their opinions. But with SaaS, our customers can achieve a widespread adoption of business process modeling tool in the entire company, to enjoy the excellent modeling and social network capabilities, just by paying USD $9.00 per month per people."
The SaaS-based option is also beneficial for companies who work with external business analysts in short-term projects, which has a short duration, perhaps several months to half a year, and the analysts do not have a long term relationship with the companies. By subscripting to business process modeling tool on monthly basis, the companies can equip the analysts with the process analysis software they need during the project period without having to splash out money on purchasing any perpetual licenses.
