Users of CarrierNetOnline, the cloud computing, SaaS (software as a service) logistics offering, from Deltion, are seeing their IT costs fall in line with transactions, as the market declines.
Says Deltion CEO Piyush Shah: “Traditional on-premise software has to be bought in advance, together with servers and other hardware – and no matter how businesses are affected by the recession, they still have to go on paying maintenance and upgrade fees.”
He also makes the point that, because VAT is deferred and paid based on the cost of the transaction, there is also a small cash flow advantage to users, following last week’s reduction of VAT to 15%.
“Our users have enjoyed major benefits, allowing them to grow the business significantly. It is a big bonus that CNO can support those companies facing reduced business with a reduced cost base,” comments Shah.
