With a drive toward invest to save, Software by Subscription from Aligned Assets is helping the public sector to find efficiencies

Woking, Surrey -- (SBWire) -- 01/24/2011 -- Software by Subscription, the revolutionary new business model launched by gazetteer specialists Aligned Assets in the summer of 2010, has today been declare a resounding success by Managing Director of the company Dinesh Thanigasalam.

It sees all upfront software fees scrapped and replaced with a simple, cost-effective annual subscription, which includes on-going updates to the software and unlimited support.

Software by Subscription was brought in to make it easier, more flexible and vastly more cost-effective for organisations in the public sector to procure products that can be used to drive an agenda of ‘invest to save’

It has resulted in large interest from local authorities looking to invest in new gazetteer management systems, back office integration and web services. Additionally, there has been an unprecedented amount of interest in Symphony SNN, which is software to automate and simplify the Street Naming and Numbering process.

“We have been contacted by people across local government interested in finding out about how Software by Subscription can help them,” explained Thanigasalam. “Because our software modules are all independent and stand-alone, they do not require a change in system, which means people can see the tremendous benefits, without any disruption.”

“We are particularly pleased about how many police forces and fire & rescue services want to understand more about our range of Symphony Bluelight products. Designed specifically for use in the emergency services to support both front line and back office systems, through Software by Subscription, Symphony Bluelight is now not only the best range of corporate gazetteer products on the market, but also the most cost-effective.”
