  | Vistage Solution Store: Software solutions for small to medium sized businesses | About Us
How it all works:
1. Quality Applications: We scour the market for the best Web-based business applications available. Each application that appears on the Vistage Knowledge Center's Solutions Store has been pre-screened for functionality, performance, usability, quality and value. Here you will find top name vendors along with the best up-and-coming software providers. No need to spend hours browsing individual software sites hoping to find business-class applications. If you're looking for software to run your business, we've made your job a lot easier.
2. Low Prices: You never pay extra to purchase applications through the Vistage Solutions Store. Vistage doesn't make money by marking up software prices beyond the standard price set by our vendors. Vistage member businesses receive an additional 5% discount on their software purchases.
3. Hosted Applications: Simply put, hosted software can save a company the headaches of ongoing maintenance, time and money in IT support and equipment costs.
4. Lower total cost of ownership (TCO): Hosted software carries a set price per user per month. Traditional software, even for small businesses, can cost thousands to tens of thousands of dollars in implementation fees, hardware, maintenance, services and support. With zero maintenance, end user support and administration costs coupled with comparatively low implementation and customization costs, hosted solutions offer a much better TCO than on-premises offerings.
5. Scalability: Hosted offerings are designed and finely-tuned to scale seamlessly for large numbers of simultaneous users. As such, they are able
to easily maintain performance levels and uptime as your organization grows and the volume of data stored expands over time. With desktop solution,
managing performance and uptime are burdens the business takes. They can involve additional costs in database licenses, skilled personnel, hardware
and infrastructure.
6. Accessibility: Hosted software can be accessed from any Web browser around the world. Users in different states, countries or even continents can
access the same information in real time without the delay of synchronizing off-network changes as is the case with a client-server on-premise solution,
or needing additional infrastructure in the form of a Web server that has to be purchased and maintained with a Web-based on-premise solution.
Using hosted applications, employees need only an Internet connection to work from any location. Moreover, they can access the same interface and
information they can at the office, staying totally productive no matter their location.
4. Member Discounts: The Member Discounts applied to the Software on the Vistage Solutions Store cannot be found anywhere else.
5. Product Evaluation Tools: Vistage provides product information, reviews, articles and other tools to help you select the right software for your business. Our "editor's reviews" are written by industry business software experts who have years of hands-on experience in business software. In addition to the unique information found on the Vistage site, you will find links to reviews, buying guides, blogs and resources found on other reputable websites. If you're evaluating business software, the Vistage Solutions Store is the best place to start your research.
