Service-As-A-Software (SaaS) distributor NewLease has finalised a deal with a finance company that changed its model from reselling packaged software to become a software-as-a-service provider.
NewLease CEO Doug Tutus said the company changed its model from offering full Microsoft software suites on the PCs it leased out to other companies.
“I can’t name the finance company because we only signed on the dotted line this week. But it provides computers on a rental basis to end-users and this deal will provide its customers with SaaS licenses,” he said.
Tutus said NewLease’s reseller partners had grown to around 200, since it started distributing SaaS licenses in January 2005.
Other partners of NewLease have said SaaS licensing contributed to a strong growth and closer relationship to its customers.
Partner L7 Solutions has signed a 350-user contract for a Microsoft and Trend Micro suite under its SPLA offering.
