Lessons Learned from AltaFlux’s SaaS Implementation

Software as a Service or SaaS, is becoming the new normal for businesses looking to streamline their processes due to its quicker time to value, lower total cost of ownership (TCO), and scalability. While SaaS implementations are often less cumbersome than traditional on-premise implementations, there are still a number of things to consider before you embark on an implementation or migration to ensure success.

At Altaflux, we are in the business of helping clients implement SAP SuccessFactors, a SaaS human resources technology, on a daily basis. We know the ins and outs of what makes our client’s SaaS implementations successful and recently had to channel that knowledge while we executed our own transition from Google Apps to Microsoft Office 365. While the technology serves different business processes, it’s a SaaS implementation all the same. We realized that the lessons we learned from over 200+ SAP SuccessFactors implementations could also be applied to our internal implementation. The following four tips will help you as you prepare for your SaaS implementation.
