Why subscription?
In the
subscription model, you subscribe to our software
rather than buying it. By subscription, we mean that
you can use our software on the internet and pay us a
subscription fee periodically. Since you do not buy
the software, there is no hassle for you with regard to
maintaining it, spending money on supporting
hardware and people to maintain it.
The key advantages of the
subscription model over the software
purchase model are as follows.
1. No implementation risk.
By any measure, the failure rate in implementation
of business software is high. Organizations pay
significant sums of money for both license fee and
implementation and run the risk that the software
does not meet user requirements.
In case of HRWorks, which is pre-built,
you can do a thorough evaluation and satisfy
yourself that HRWorks is indeed the right software
for your organization. Appscale offers a free trial
period, if you wish to see HRWorks in action
before making the decision. At the end of the trial
period, if you decide against using our service, you
can do so without any obligation whatsoever.
There is no implementation risk, since
customers, after initial evaluation, can get going
within a matter of days, if not hours, by
configuring HRWorks, using its intuitive interfaces.
2. No maintenance effort.
Customers need not worry about version
upgrades or technology obsolescence since we take
the responsibility for the same. Whenever there are
statutory changes with regard to deductions such as
Income Tax, we will make the required changes to the
software and make available to our customers a
revised version.
3. Low cost of IT.
HRWorks is delivered with the aim of
lowering the cost of IT to users.
Software cost: Users of
HRWorks need only a web browser to access the software. There is no requirement for any
expensive software for payroll application, database or application servers. The fee that customers pay
us is a small fraction of the cost they will be incurring if they were to build or buy equivalent
software products.
Hardware cost: Users
can access our software using low cost personal computers with just an internet connection. There
is no requirement for expensive hardware servers that will be required if customers were to create or
buy, and manage software in-house.
Personnel cost: Customers
need not recruit expensive systems specialists since the software is maintained at our end.
Business users can manage HRWorks, without any help from technology specialists.
