The Future of Funding in the Cloud
Prepared by: Dean Morrison/John Dondey, Dimension Funding LLC
Not too long ago, cloud was touted primarily as a cost-cutting tool and means of improving agility through easy access to low cost infrastructure. It’s now gaining visibility in the minds of leaders for its potential to change the dynamics of digital globalization and competition. As we move to cloud for more strategic applications, we uncover opportunities to re-imagine business processes and entire industry models. The extent to which leaders will look into the horizon—and consider the strategic implications of the cloud — will have a significant impact on their long-term growth. Is customer strategy centered solely on scalable infrastructure? Is it adaptable to their business model and investment strategies? Does it deliver the higher value business applications and industry functions that they need to enable game changing business models, processes and customer experiences? Current budgets may restrict acting now or even this year, but the cost of waiting is high, given the urgency to digitally transform their business ahead of the competition. They may likely need a strategy to manage or even shrink expenses while simultaneously pursuing growth. Managing cash flow and matching costs to anticipated benefits are essential to delivering a strong return on investment on their IT initiatives. 

Dimension Funding can help affordably finance the

complete cloud infrastructure solution 

This includes services, software, and hardware products. It’s easy to understand why more organizations are turning to SaaS. The benefits can include reduced time to productivity, lower costs and increased scalability. Furthermore, clients may enjoy improved cash flow depending on how they finance their implementation. It has become the standard in the industry for SaaS providers to charge an annual or multi-year up-front payment for the service. This can pose a challenge to organizations that have budgetary constraints or strategic initiatives competing for funding. 

Help You Clients Overcome Cash Flow Delays

Dimension Funding Group provides customer financing for standalone prepaid SaaS and Cloud structure to help your clients overcome the various budget and cash flow issues and challenges they face, and which can delay the approval of your project, products and services. 

Making predictable payments helps match costs to expected benefits and reduces upfront payments, and financing helps preserve customer’s cash and credit lines for other business priorities. Clients should not forego the benefits of deploying SaaS just because associated up-front costs challenge their budgets. Financing is an exceptional tool to break down funding barriers and introduce flexibility in project planning.
1) SaaS and Cloud Software Solution providers have cash flow needs, too. It can take a sizable investment to set up a SaaS resource and provision it to a large client.

2) The way clients order and pay for Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solutions continues to evolve. While many SaaS offerings are available on a month-to-month basis, most enterprise deals offer a discount for pre-paid multi-year contracts. This practice, which is now ubiquitous in the industry, offers clients an opportunity to lock in much lower prices if they can come up with the cash/funds to pay for it. Dimension has devised an innovative way to balance the customer’s need to manage cash flow with the desire for the best possible per-seat pricing on SaaS. 


Putting it All Together

Dimension has a history of providing the purchasing power clients need to build competitive 
advantage. It enables the financial stability needed to save, re-invest and innovate. Customizable payment plans offer simple contracts, rapid approvals and flexible payment structures. These financing offers are a good way to lock in great value for prepaid SaaS and help your clients  preserve cash and working capital while conserving bank lines for investment and other growth and expansion activities.
