Salesforce.com cites Vuzit as case for mainstream cloud computing

In a November 6, 2009 blog post Vuzit cited an article that we appeared in on Internet Evolution about how we run our business in the cloud. Not only does Vuzit sell SaaS-based software, but we use several SaaS-based business applications internally.

dreamforceApparently the folks at Salesforce.com found our quote pretty interesting because they used it in a presentation given at Dreamforce 2009 called “Dreamforce 2009 Platform State of the Union.”

In the presentation Salesforce.com makes the case that cloud computing is no longer on the “bleeding edge” and that mainstream businesses are adopting it. The slide deck also includes several additional interesting statistics on cloud computing adoption including a Gartner estimate that the cloud services market will reach over $150 billion by 2013 and that 37% of firms are replacing current on-premise systems with SaaS.

Vuzit is naturally an advocate of cloud-based computing, as it is the primary way we offer our online document viewer and DocuPub Platform. Using SaaS business applications also helps us run our business more efficiently and enables us to focus more resources on our product and our customers.

  3. Great piece.

    But some organizations still need on-premise software. In fact, organizations need your Vuzit on-premise viewer because we feel our content is safer that way.

    I hope you guys are working on the Thumbnail view for the Vuzit viewer?

    Vuzit is a Great viewer anyday.
