THINKstrategies, Inc., the leading strategic consulting company
focused on the business implications of the on-demand services
market, announced today that Pervasive Software (NASDAQ: PVSW) has
been named the latest winner of the Best of SaaS Showplace (BoSS)
Awards program, which is aimed at promoting the measurable
business benefits being delivered by today's
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solutions.
The BoSS Awards program was announced in January 2009
as the latest initiative by THINKstrategies to bring attention
to SaaS and cloud computing companies that are
producing tangible business benefits for specific user
organizations. These benefits include increased sales, lower
costs, higher customer satisfaction, faster operations and greater
profitability.
Pervasive Software helps companies optimize their data
investments through embeddable data management, agile data
integration software and by enabling next-generation analytics.
Pervasive's data integration platform accelerates the sharing of
information between multiple data stores, applications, and hosted
business systems across a broad range of diverse integration
scenarios, including pre-configured hosted integration
solutions.
Cencio Solutions, an IT consulting firm specializing in IT
transformation, is an example of the business benefits that are
derived from Pervasive Software’s integration solutions. Cencio’s
primary customer value is the ability to help “identify the best
way to create deployment scenarios, automate processes, and
re-engineer existing processes,” according to Stephen Inocencio,
Principal Consultant. Cencio decided to use Pervasive’s data
integration because it is “easy to use, platform agnostic and
flexible.” Cencio has been able to put new, more flexible
on-boarding processes in place by leveraging Pervasive solutions,
removing the need to purchase and support approximately five new
platforms. After a onetime expenditure of $12,000 for Pervasive,
Cencio estimates savings of $30,700 the first year and $42,700 in
subsequent years. Cencio has also been able to achieve full-time
equivalent (FTE) reductions from 12 to 2, at a savings of
approximately $1,000,000 per year. Integration project durations
have dropped from 140 hours to 3 hours for each new customer,
totaling an average annual time savings of 39,730 hours. Cencio
also estimates it gained deferred revenue recognition of $351,000
within the first 4 months. In total, Cencio estimates its hard
return-on-investment (ROI) from using Pervasive Software’s
integration solution was $2,083,700 in the first year.
In recognition of these measurable business benefits, Pervasive
Software has been named a Best of SaaS Showplace Award winner. A

“We are pleased to be recognized by THINKstrategies and the SaaS
Showplace for the business value of our integration solutions,”
said Mike Hoskins, Pervasive CTO and general manager of Integration
Products. “We are proud that we have been able to leverage our
extensive experience and flexible, robust functional capabilities
to address our customers’ increasingly complex SaaS integration
needs.”
"The key to success in the SaaS marketplace is cost-effective
integration which can tie together various data sources to meet an
organization’s business process requirements,” stated Jeffrey M.
Kaplan, the founder of the SaaS Showplace and Managing Director of
THINKstrategies, the strategic consulting firm which conceived and
administers the Showplace. "Pervasive Software’s integration tools
are helping organizations meet these challenges so they can achieve
their business objectives."
