9. Let’s take a Customer ViewSMB Cloud Confusion “I know that the big software companies are coming out with SaaS, but my business is too small to get even an email response from their sales websites.” “It feels likeI have to educate myself a lot more about Cloud IT than I ever had to for the rest of my IT stuff.” “I can find software for my business without turning round. There’s always a consultant or salesperson calling or in my office to sell me software and so-called ‘solutions.’ But I have to go looking for Cloud solutions and figure it all out myself. That’s a huge pain.” “Our main IT provider is a reseller that builds their own software and makes it work for our business. He’s not going to tell me anything about Cloud or SaaS, because he’s not going to make any money off it.” Source: Saugatech Survey of SMB CEOs
