Evolving from roots in Internet-hosted software applications, from 2000 onwards, Software as a Service (SaaS) has emerged as one of the most significant trends in the business applications market, impacting new and existing providers alike, and increasingly figuring in corporate decisions on a range of business application decisions from Accounting, Customer Relationship Management through to Video Conferencing. The Learning & Talent Systems market has been no exception to the above trend, but how significant is SaaS in this specific market, and what are the implications for both suppliers and customers?
As Europe’s leading independent corporate learning analyst, Elearnity has been tracking the Learning & Talent Systems market for many years. Our research indicates, what we believe to be, a significant shift in the attitude of corporate decision makers to adopting SaaS solutions to their Learning & Talent Management needs.
In this research paper, Elearnity examines the benefits and challenges with the SaaS model, and explores the specific relevance for Learning & Talent Systems. The paper also includes key questions for companies considering SaaS Learning & Talent options, as well as questions for potential suppliers.
