BRANCHBURG, N.J. - September 30, 2008 - WebApps, Inc. a.k.a. SaaS.com,
a leading provider of Software as a Service (SaaS) with a major push in
Workforce Management Solutions, recently announced its new partnership
with Progressive Employer Services (PES), a Florida professional employer
organization (PEO) offering small to medium sized businesses (SMBs) a wide
array of solutions, which include: payroll administration, risk management,
workers' compensation, employee benefits, human resources governmental
compliance and client services.
With an existing vast range of services, PES found the need for a workforce
management solution to compliment its overall product offering to satisfy
client needs. "We decided to partner with SaaS.com because its software is
flexible, affordable, reliable, and will fit well with the rest of our organization's
service and support," stated Carlos Cardenas, Senior Director of Marketing
and Business Development for PES. Each of these elements will allow PES to
target a wider spectrum of prospects and, in turn, significantly increase its
client base.
Cardenas, who together with Michael Clifford, Vice President of Information
Technology for PES, headed up the partnership decision, continued by
saying, "After deciding to partner with SaaS.com, we deemed it necessary to
implement the software internally first to ensure it would be satisfactory for
our clients. We found that the software eliminates buddy punching and
enables the employer's ability to manage attendance and accruals with ease
and accuracy, which are factors that remain important to our clients."
Combined with the PES suite of product offerings, SaaS.com's workforce
management solution allows PES clients to allocate more time to focus on
revenue generating activities within their business as apposed to
administrative tasks. In addition, the system streamlines processes that
were once unnecessarily time consuming. "As a PEO, we have a significant
number of clients who submit time records via phone, fax and email," stated
Clifford. "We are now able to eliminate those manual processes through a
direct upload. Not only does this solution save our clients time, but it also
provides more accurate record keeping for compliance and reporting
purposes. This is an important step in executing our strategy to provide cost-
effective technology solutions that increase efficiency and provide return on
investment for our clients."
