As a nonprofit, you are increasingly asked to do more with less, aren’t you? You’re asked to provide more services, deliver better outcomes, and report program impact—all with limited resources and smaller budgets. But how can you be expected to deliver more services with limited time and a budget that seems to shrink? How are you supposed to extract program data and report your impact when all you’ve used in the past was inefficient paper-based processes, spreadsheets, or antiquated desktop software? You do it by embracing a whole new approach to outcomes measurement and impact reporting—Web-based Software as a Service (SaaS), just as the for-profit world has done. For nonprofits, this means Pangea Foundation.
SaaS is breaking the barriers that have until now prevented nonprofits from realizing the strategic value of enterprise software.
Pangea Foundation is leveraging the power of the Web to crush the barriers keeping nonprofits from experiencing the strategic benefits of transformational technologies. We employ the unique value of SaaS to democratize the access nonprofits have to enterprise-class software. As a nonprofit SaaS provider, Pangea Foundation offers you the unique expertise and focused commitment of our team to implement and support the optimal use of SaaS in your organization. Our goal is to make enterprise SaaS easily accessible to nonprofits across America. That’s because we’ve seen firsthand how SaaS can make a difference in people’s lives. And we want you to see it too, so you can leverage the power of the Web and the SaaS delivery model to make an even bigger difference than you already have.
We do everything the leading SaaS providers do—we just do it differently.
Among nonprofits, Pangea Foundation is a pioneer in the design, development, and implementation of on-demand software via the SaaS delivery model. We do everything the leading SaaS companies do—we just do it differently. How? By providing SaaS—as a service—not as a profit driver. That means full-service implementation and unlimited support—for as long as you decide to use your software.
SaaS is causing traditional desktop software to slowly become extinct.
To understand the future of outcomes tracking and impact reporting software for nonprofits, look no farther than the for-profit Web. Just as for-profit Web services like eBay®, Google™, and Amazon.com™ are replacing traditionally packaged desktop software, outcomes tracking and impact reporting by nonprofits is moving to the Web. The On-Demand SaaS delivery model has changed the software industry from an ownership model to a “rent-based” or “pay-as-you-go” model. And Pangea Foundation is leading the effort to deliver SaaS for nonprofits. We help you escape the drudgery of architecting and maintaining an expensive technology platform so you can focus on serving people—not technology infrastructure.
Compared to desktop software, SaaS offers lower total cost of ownership.
When considered in totality, the entire question of cost of ownership comparisons between SaaS and traditional on-premise software becomes very clear. SaaS from Pangea Foundation is the key to Return On Investment (ROI) for nonprofits. With SaaS, you’ll be able to pay for your software services over time on a subscription basis. That means you can invest more money advancing your mission and less on your infrastructure.
Think of SaaS like your phone, cable, electric, and Internet services.
Instead of having to front the heavy costs of building the entire infrastructure necessary to deliver your phone, cable, electric, and Internet services, you only pay for what you use. Good thing too! Have you shopped the price of an electrical grid lately? Think of SaaS the same way. SaaS puts the world’s leading technologies to work for both large and small nonprofits at a fraction of the costs required for traditional on-premise structures.
Get rapid time to value and quickly replicate program success with SaaS.
Since Pangea Foundation’s on-demand SaaS solutions eliminate the need for upfront investments in expensive hardware and server software, nonprofits are able to achieve rapid time to value compared to traditional on-premise software. SaaS also makes it easy for nonprofits to quickly replicate program successes across the entire organization at a fraction of the cost of on-premise models. According to a study by Triple Tree and the Software and Information Industry Association (SIIA), on-demand software deployments are 50 to 90 percent faster than deployments of traditional on-premise software, with a total cost of ownership between five and ten times less.
Get built-in disaster recovery with your nonprofit SaaS application.
With a custom SaaS application from Pangea Foundation, you’ll have peace of mind knowing that your data is safe and secure. And we take security far beyond your SaaS application. Nonprofits can take advantage of a world-class IT infrastructure without the world-class price tag. When you work with Pangea Foundation, rest assured your information is many times more secure than information that is stored within the walls of your own organization, on personal computers, or at any other non-regulated data center. Pangea Foundation can offer you a full menu of escalating business continuity solutions to help you underpin your risk management strategy. We’ll help guide you through your options to help you identify one that best meets your needs, and your budget.
