  2. SaaS Refresher What is SaaS How does SaaS help? SaaS Sales Process Partner Programs Compensation & Measurements Legal, Data Privacy, and Security Where to Start Tools and other resources Agenda

  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. 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. 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. Margin – the total discount off list price Business Partner can expect to receive

  18. SaaS Subscription Examples Note that for Scenario 3, the total TCV and ACV would be the sum of Contracts 1 & 2

  19. On-premise to SaaS Conversion Selling Scenarios • Client has decided to move to SaaS and is seriously considering a competitor who offers SaaS • Client has decided that SaaS is a strategic direction but wants IBM to preserve their current on-prem investment. IBM wants to avoid getting into the RFP process Details for On-premise to SaaS Conversion • Continue to pay S&S on their current licenses • Pay a discounted per monthly step-up subscription fee (same on-premise metric) • Initiate a paid Services Engagement to migrate from on-premise to SaaS (if required) Client Benefits: • Discount on SaaS offering • Easier migration process to the same UI and data model • No end user re-training required IBM Benefits • Maintain the S&S Revenue stream • Add a monthly SaaS Subscription • Retain client base

  20. 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 versus No conversion (SaaS at list). 6% annual savings when comparing Step-up to no Step-up *Savings does not reflect infrastructure and labor costs transferred to IBM More examples can be found in the Pricing deck in the Center of Competency

  24. Tremendous opportunities to up-sell and cross-sell – part 2

  25. SaaS Refresher SaaS Sales Process Partner Programs Compensation & Measurements Legal, Data Privacy, and Security Legal – Compliance Overview, Key Terms Data Privacy – What you need to know, EU Safe Harbor, Solution Hosting Security – Security Practices Where to Start Tools and other resources Agenda

  26. Legal - Compliance Overview Compliance = Softlayer Compliance + C&SI SaaS Compliance Unless both are compliant we can’t claim compliance. • Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) - Compliant • Set of requirements designed to ensure that ALL companies that process, store or transmit credit card information maintain a secure environment.  • C&SI processes credit card information through IBM Payment Systems which is PCI compliant • Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) - Not Compliant (in progress) • Government-wide program that provides a standardized approach to security assessment, authorization, and continuous monitoring for cloud products and services. • One of the key requirements is  Federal Information Security Management Act of 2002 (FISMA) • EU Safe Harbor (See EU Safe Harbor section) – Certification in process

  27. Legal - C&SI SaaS Contract Options IBM International Passport Advantage Agreement (IPAA) – includes SaaS terms regarding ownership, customer’s right to use, subscription to SaaS, SaaS technical support, content and termination of SaaS Passport Advantage customers using direct or e-Commerce to purchase Terms of Use (TOU) B – standard terms of use for IBM SaaS offerings. This is in addition to IBM or IBM IPPA Express Agreement TOU A – terms of use specific to a SaaS offering (e.g charge metrics, renewal) Service Level Agreement (SLA) – specific to a SaaS offering Note: A SaaS Solution Provider may require additional agreements for approval

  28. 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

  29. Legal - Service Level AgreementsOne 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 Terms found in TOU A or Cloud Services Agreement Services Description

  30. Data Privacy - What you need to know Personal datagenerallyincludes 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. C&SI SaaS is in the process of obtaining EU Safe Harbor certification. This requires a risk assessment after we Go Live. In the meantime, we have security measures in place to restrict access to EU client data and for IBM non-U.S. employee access to Amsterdam hosting center in order to comply. IBM has an Online Privacy Statement which is another EU Safe Harbor requirement

  31. Data Privacy - EU Safe Harbor Certification • EU and Switzerland have specific data privacy regulations and have established the ability to create a framework with the U.S for accessing personal data called EU Safe Harbor. to prevent accidental information disclosure or loss • C&SI SaaS is in the process of obtaining EU Safe Harbor certification • Benefits: • Ability to assert Safe Harbor to clients and prospects. • Facilitates selling in the EU and Switzerland. • Makes us competitive in selling situations.

  33. Security - C&SI SaaS Security Practices • Data Security – each offering has a Security Practices document • Security Policy – states that IBM has published privacy and security policies and that employees are trained in security • Access Control • Only authorized employees can access client data • Support staff for the Cloud Offering use multi-factor authentication and encrypted channels when accessing client data • Data transfers are logged • Service Integrity & Availability • Change Management process governs changes to O/S, application s/w and firewall • Data center resources are monitored 24x7 • Internal and external vulnerability scanning and malware detection • Information delivery protocols for transmission of data over public networks (e.g HTTPS, VPN) • Physical Security • Designed to restrict unauthorized physical access to data center resources. • Entry and removal of equipment is logged • Compliance • Assessments and audits are conducted regularly by IBM’s team to confirm compliance with its information security policies. • Conduct workforce security education and awareness training • Note: The Security Practices are also included in the Cloud Service Agreement Service Description for each offering.

  34. Security – ITCS104 & Industry Standards Certifications C&SI SaaS offerings adhere to the rigorous standards of ITCS104 security There are many industry standards that require certification. C&SI is evaluating the priority order based on client demand • Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) – Not Certified • Requires certification through HIPAA Program Office (HPO) • Data Centers do not get certified in HIPPA – SoftLayer Internal HIPPA whitepaper • SSAE 16 - Not Certified • SOC2 Type II Compliance - Not Certified • Cloud Security Alliance STAR Self Assessment - Not Certified • EU Safe Harbor (See EU Safe Harbor section) – Certification in process
