CloudShare Delivers Immediate ROI to Customers

Leveraging Cloud Computing, companies can derive significant cost savings and achieve rapid return on investment or "ROI."

 

CloudShare, "a quick and easy way to share copies of complex IT environments through online," announced that its customers are experiencing immediate return on investment by migrating their IT-intensive business functions to the Cloud, including presales demos, proofs of concept, training, and IT operations.

The company has been recognized for its ability to replace local IT systems with full IT systems hosted on the Cloud, and allowing its customers to deliver any enterprise application as a service. CloudShare provides a Cloud-based service that streamlines the lengthy evaluation process typically associated with enterprise software sales. 

CloudShare lets companies engage with customers in a more powerful way, without the cost, time, and hassle of setting up on-site product evaluations, according to company officials. 

"Ensuring robust, rapid, and seamless deployment of strategic applications as SaaS (News - Alert) - whether for sales demos, training, or IT operations - is critical to organizations with IT-intensive processes. They are extremely expensive and time-consuming, and until now, companies had no viable alternatives," Zvi Guterman, CEO of CloudShare, said. "We are pleased that our solution is helping our customers realize faster time-to-success and return on investment with their most critical enterprise applications." 

Virtual Graffiti, a global reseller with over 30,000 customers, leverages the CloudShare technology to maximize pre-sales efforts and establish and maintain a predictable sales process. CloudShare is instrumental in significantly lowering Virtual Graffiti's engineering costs and eliminating all capital expenditures associated with lab environments for demos and evaluations.

Jonathan Mayer, technical account manager, Virtual Graffiti, says as its business grows, Virtual Graffiti sales team has more leads than ever and only a few hours in the day to chase them. Having the ability to offer a virtual evaluation saves its time and money helps the company to identify real prospects much earlier in the process, and lets the company scale up as its business continues to grow. 

CloudShare customers enjoys benefits such as 30 percent reduction in sales cycle time, 25 percent reduction in support costs and travel, 50 percent increase in sales team productivity, 50 percent increase in channel/reseller/VAR demos, 50 percent increase in efficiency for training purposes and so on, according to CloudShare officials.
