3 © 2014 IBM Corporation 3 What is Software as a Service (SaaS)?  Software as a Service (SaaS) is a software delivery model in which software and associated data are centrally hosted in the cloud. SaaS is typically accessed via a web browser. Payment for the service is through a subscription model.  You are using SaaS today if you access applications like Facebook, Twitter, or gmail. See the last page in this deck for additional resources on SaaS, Cloud, and utility-based computing

4 © 2014 IBM Corporation 4 How can SaaS help? Improved TCO due to lower infrastructure cost Flexible subscription pricing Minimal upfront investment Continuous delivery of new capabilities allows rapid innovation and access to immediate code fixes Lower risk with try & buy approach Accelerates evaluations and decision making

17 © 2014 IBM Corporation 17 How is Revenue realized with SaaS?  ACV – Annual Contract Value of the Subscription Agreement  TCV – Total Contract Value of a Multi-year Subscription Agreement  Bookings – The Total dollar value of all new contracts signed. Usually Billings are an annualized number even for different contract durations. Billings are not always helpful in understanding the state of SaaS business.  MRR – Monthly Recurring Revenue at the end of each month (like rent). MRR is the sum of the prior contracts + new contracts signed this month – expired contracts.  Churning MRR – Lost MRR from lost customers  Margin – the total discount off list price Business Partner can expect to receive

19 © 2014 IBM Corporation 19 On-premise to SaaS Conversion Example – SCCD Acme Co. has 100 SmartCloud Control Desk on-premise 100 authorized user licenses. Acme wants to move 40 users to SaaS so they subscribe to 40 SmartCloud Control Desk (SaaS) authorized users. Acme wants to protect their investment and reserve the option to move back to on-premise if needed. The chart below shows the Acme current yearly costs for on-premise licenses/S&S and then compares the cost between using the Conversion program vs No conversion (SaaS at list). 6% annual savings* over no conversion cost *Savings does not reflect infrastructure and labor costs transferred to IBM

24 © 2014 IBM Corporation 24 How to Farm SaaS Deals – IBM Monitoring (SaaS)  Starting point: The customer bought a small installation of IBM Monitoring (SaaS) for applications and infrastructure  Grow the existing footprint to other users  Who has a similar job to yours? Will you introduce me to them, or to someone who makes tool decisions for you and your peers?Grow use of IBM Monitoring  Grow the existing footprint by adding additional applications  What other applications are considered critical by your company, and need to be monitored?  Since you were successful with this application, can we explore the next one? Who owns that application? What happens to your company if it goes down or is slow?Grow use of IBM Monitoring  Grow the existing footprint by adding analytics*  APM customers can use their dashboard to search log files on servers configured for access by log analytics, speeding the time it takes to find out what’s really causing a problem. Expand with SmartCloud Log Analytics  Grow the existing footprint by adding network or storage management*  Now that you have an idea of your application performance would you like to grow your insight into your network and/or storage use?Expand with Tivoli Network Manager and Tivoli Storage Manager  Grow the existing foot print by adding event management*  So APM is working well and you have other tools monitoring your IT infrastructure, we often find customer's struggle understanding the holistic view of their environment, and frequently invest resources in chasing and correcting the symptom rather than root cause. When issues occur that span tools, could you use a tool to help eliminate symptoms and to quickly identify the root cause of the problem?Expand with Netcool OMNIbus  Leverage this SaaS experience to sell an expanded on-premises deployment  The SaaS offering helped you understand the technology and see the benefit of monitoring, but your organization prefers an on-premises deployment for security, performance or other reasons. Get full-spectrum on-premises infrastructure and application monitoring with SmartCloud APM  Grow the existing footprint by Control Desk*  APM customers can have their solution integrated with a help desk to speed and organize the process of tracking and resolving problems in their environment. Expand with SmartCloud Control Desk *Solution integrations are being developed and tested continuously. Initially, the SaaS offering will be integrated with on-premise deployments of complementary products, with a SaaS-to-SaaS offering when both products are available.

26 © 2014 IBM Corporation 26 How to Farm SaaS Deals – IBM SmartCloud Control Desk (SaaS)  Starting point: the customer is doing a trial or pilot of Control Desk (SaaS)  Background: Most customers will already have a service desk, but it will often be backlevel, missing needed function (e.g. service catalog, IT Asset Management), they lack skills to manage the system, and they face a potentially expensive upgrade if they need to improve function  Message: “Control Desk (SaaS) will provide the modern function you need, have low up front costs, reduce your skill and support costs and requirements, and provide a low, flat, predictable cost structure. It is the best way out of the situation you are in.”  Grow the existing footprint to other processes and user groups  Background: If the client starts use of Control Desk with base processes like incident and service request, they will usually naturally look to expand into areas like problem and knowledge management, service catalog, change management, and IT asset management as they mature. Alternatively, if they start use of Control Desk with change management for instance, IBM can look to displace the service desk operation (incident, service request)  Message: “If you consolidate on Control Desk, it will save you training, support costs, and provide better service.” “If you add integrated change management through Control Desk, you can reduce incidents and outages related to change by 70%.”  Grow the existing footprint by adding additional applications: 1.Expand with IBM OMNIbus:  Background: Event storms can overwhelm service desk support staff and drive up costs  Message: “If you integrate Omnibus, your support team can focus on the common cause of issues and tickets and use automation to fix frequent, recurring problems” 2.Expand with IBM Endpoint Manager  Background: Many organizations suffer from having disconnected, time-consuming, error-prone processes to request, deploy and manage software assets  Message: “You can integrate with IEM to provide an online app store to customers and then automate the accounting, approval, and deployment, saving time and reducing errors.” 3.Expand with IBM TADDM  Background : without automated tools, discovery is time consuming, and chronically inaccurate, impacting cost and service  Message: “TADDM can save time and money though automating discovery. It provides a near real time view of your infrastructure and services so your IT group can see and manage the configurations that impact services. This can help proactively avoid issues and greatly reduce time to problem resolution.” Steve – page is being reworked per 3/10 call

This is in addition to IBM or IBM IPPA Express Agreement Terms of Use (TOU) B  TOU A – terms of use specific to a SaaS offering (e.g charge metrics, renewal) TOU A  Service Level Agreement (SLA) – specific to a SaaS offering Note: A SaaS Solution Provider may require additional agreements for approval

31 © 2014 IBM Corporation 31 Legal - Key Terms  Automatic renewal – contract is automatically renewed unless customer cancels.  Example: Customer purchases a 12 month term with monthly billing and on month 15 decides they no longer need the service they DO NOT have the option to terminate and will be responsible for the remaining 9 months of coverage (the full 12 month term).  Indemnity - Customer agrees to hold IBM harmless against any third party claim arising out of or relating to: 1) violation of the IBM Acceptable Use Policy by Customer or any of Customer’s IBM SaaS Users; or 2) Content made available to the IBM SaaS.  Non-disclosure of Customer Content – TOU B indicates that IBM will not use client data for any reason but to operate SaaS and will be kept confidential Applies to IBM Software Value Plus

32 © 2014 IBM Corporation 32 Legal - Service Level Agreements One per CSI SaaS Offering (no charge)  “Availability” percentage is calculated as: (a) the total number of minutes in a Contracted Month, minus (b) the total number of minutes of Downtime in a Contracted Month, divided by (c) the total number of minutes in a Contracted Month, with the resulting fraction expressed as a percentage.  Example: 432 minutes total Downtime during Contracted Month Availability during a Contracted Month Availability Credit (% of Monthly Subscription Fee for Contracted Month which is the subject of a Claim) Less than 99.8%2% Less than 98.8%5% Less than 95.0%10% 43,200 total minutes in a 30 day Contracted Month - 432 minutes Downtime = 42,768 minutes ________________________ 43,200 total minutes in a 30 day Contracted Month = 2% Availability Credit for 99.0% availability during the Contracted Month Terms found in TOU A or Cloud Services Agreement Services Description

33 © 2014 IBM Corporation 33 Data Privacy - What you need to know Personal data generally includes information relating to an individual -think business card (e.g. names, email addresses, home address) In some countries, also includes information about identified partnerships, associations, or corporations. IBM is a data processor, entity that processes personal data on behalf of the data controller, who would be the client responsible for entering the data. In most cases, Passport Advantage agreement covers data privacy for personal data. EU and Switzerland have additional data privacy regulations but have established the ability to create a framework with the U.S for accessing personal data.
