Mountain View (we just moved onto the same street as YC)
BloomReach (http://www.bloomreach.com) is a small, fast-growing startup that is tackling one of the Internet’s most fundamental problems: helping leading online businesses get their highest quality, most relevant content found by their consumers, when and where they want it. We're delivering a 95% uplift in non-branded organic search traffic for brands like Neiman-Marcus, William Sonoma, Buy.com and others.
Might be a bit overkill to start, but we started early on with salesforce.com, which provided a good framework that we've grown into. Other CRM solutions like sugarcrm would work too.
A great example of teeing people up to sell Google Apps internally. Does much of the basic heavy lifting, then packages for easy consumption (perfect for the first group of people who would evaluate).
High points:
- Money saved / time saved tally
- Easy way to edit the underlying assumptions
- Auto-creation of a tailored slide deck, info poster and spreadsheet
Yeah, my 1-person company could save $32,000 - how, they don't really say. That would be amazing, since my software licensing costs for the year are nil.
You have to click the 'assumptions' on the upper left. It seems that vast figure is generated by comparing to Microsoft Exchange, including sysadmin time.
Also, it appears that in various 'assumptions' on this site, it is ignoring the total number of people working for the company. When you edit assumptions in one part, it reads...
How many people work at <company>? 1
[...]
Think of the last time you worked on a group project. How many people were on that team? 10
[...]
What percentage of <company> employees use laptops? 60%
So, apparently 10 times as many people worked on the last project as were employed by the company in total, and .6 of one employee uses a laptop.
But at some level doesn't it cost Verizon more the more I download? Why shouldn't they be allowed to pass down that cost?
I'm sorry, but I just don't see how this is any different from my electricity bill. Sure, I'd love an economical flat-rate power plan, but I don't expect to get it any time soon.
People conflate metered internet with Net Neutrality. They're not the same thing. There's a big difference between Verizon charging more for using lots of bandwidth and Verizon charging more (or blocking) VoIP services that compete with their main business.
One could just as easily equate high speed internet to Cable television. You don't get charged more for watching more.
In the end it's somewhere in the middle. But the reality is that companies are making money now off unlimited access and those handy anti-trust laws we have prevent all the Internet companies from banding together to implement metered access. So even if it did make more sense it's unlikely a provider could implement it without losing out to competition (since again the current model is profitable)
I mostly agree you and think I wouldn't trust this guy as the CTO of a lemon aide stand. I do think we'll start seeing limits on data transfer in the future though. Very high limits but limits none the less.
It's sort of like Gmail. 99.9% of people never come close to filling it up. But for those who go over there's a way to pay for more. As digital video becomes more prevalent I think providers will have to institute some kind of system to crack down on the biggest of data hogs (many already do)
