For
Managed Service Providers, differentiation of services continues to be
the strategic necessity, particularly as mobility and competition
continue to breed change. Faced with a variety of challenges, including
the expanding mobility of client workforces, increasingly complex
support environments, and the commoditization of standard support
services, Managed Service Providers need a silver bullet.
Elaina Stergiades from IDC will be a featured guest on this
LogMeIn-hosted webinar on the advantages that SaaS offers in the
Enterprise. Elaina will talk about why clientless remote support is a
critical part of today’s support tool-set. She'll also discuss how SaaS
is alleviating the pain of high acquisition costs, frequent upgrades,
and low technology adoption. To support this discussion, Elaina will
share highlights from a new IDC review of how SaaS-based remote support
tools provide a new advantage for Managed Service Providers.
