Mea Clouda: SaaS Vendors Can Win Over Customers with Honesty: can onpremise applications provide 99,5% or better uptime?
I like this article that explains that all SaaS vendors have an opportunity to build trust with their clients by being open and transparent when an outage happens. No IT system is failsafe, and I would even argue that some onpremise solutions do not provide 99.5 or higher uptime. I have not seen one yet.
