“As traditional business models for selling software products and applications are being enhanced by SaaS models, ISVs need a platform-as-a-service that is agile, caters to a community of developers and provides the necessary building blocks for business application development and delivery,” said Clarence So, CMO, Salesforce.com.

“As a leading salesforce.com consulting partner focused specifically on Force.com, Persistent brings the product development expertise necessary for ISVs to rapidly deploy on Force.com, accelerating the benefits of platform-as-a-service to our community of partners and developers,” he added.

Persistent’s Migration Services for Force.com is a custom solution framework, which SaaS-enables traditional applications and accelerates the adoption of Force.com addressing key areas including migration, security, integration and data process requirements.

The company has also established a dedicated SaaS competency center, which provides the underlying infrastructure for development and deployment of SaaS services. Based in Pune, India, the Persistent SaaS competency center focuses on the SaaS-enablement methodology refined for Force.com platform; building reusable application components for migration to the Force.com platform; and on-going SaaS adoption process improvements to enable ISVs reducing time and cost to market.

“Salesforce.com and Persistent are providing the infrastructure, platform and product development services, so that ISVs can focus on innovation and customer success,” said TM Vijayaraman, CTO, Persistent Systems. “Most of the ISVs we work with are already thinking of SaaS, and the ability to help them move to a platform like Force.com will help substantially decrease time and cost to market,” he added.
