Pilgrim Software, Inc., a world-leading provider of Enterprise Compliance and Quality Management (ECQM) software solutions announced its Software as a Service (SaaS) strategy by releasing its “Pilgrim On-Demand,” a software application delivery model offering organizations an alternative solution to managing key electronic compliance and quality processes.
While compliance and quality management systems are no longer just ‘nice to have’ systems, they have
evolved to become vital to a company’s knowledge and information infrastructure. Maintaining the
software and technology used by these systems can be time consuming and costly. As such, the need to
reduce IT infrastructure is a key challenge for end-users as applications, operating systems, storage,
networks and databases need to be constantly upgraded. Pilgrim On-Demand provides customers with a
distinct competitive advantage through a lower initial investment cost, reduced overhead, high degree of
scalability, increased accessibility, improved collaborative productivity, easier implementation, and
improved security with optimal performance.
“Pilgrim’s On-Demand solution allows organizations to be completely hands free on any needed
technology to run the critical and strategic ECQM applications,” said Prashanth Rajendran, Pilgrim’s Chief
Operating Officer. “Companies that adopt the SaaS strategy spend more time streamlining their
operations as opposed to building and maintaining IT infrastructure and architecture to run their strategic
applications. Additionally, the unparalleled support that Pilgrim Software provides enables organizations
to get the most out of their systems.”
Pilgrim’s On-Demand solution, which is run centrally from a SAS 70-certified hosting facility, is delivered
on a subscription basis, and includes software, validation packs, maintenance and support. The
subscription model is completely scalable, allowing for easy expansion and/or additional application
installation. The web-based solution allows for effortless information sharing and increased collaborative
productivity. Advanced built-in security features guarantee the protection of customers’ intellectual
property.
Currently, Pilgrim provides an enterprise caliber solution that can scale from small, to medium, to large
companies. The application is built based on proven best practices, for managing nonconformance
management, incident management, risk management, corrective and preventive actions, action tracking
and any other event tracking processes that a customer wishes to define, complaint handling, change
control management, internal and external audits, document control, SOP enforcement, employee
certification and training.
“With this solution offering, Pilgrim has expanded its delivery models which can now reach more
customers compared to offering only an on-premise installation model. Pilgrim’s On-Demand program
was privately launched and Pilgrim’s current customers have been extremely satisfied with our offering,”
said Ami Utji, Pilgrim’s Chief Executive Officer.
These solutions also are available for on-premise purchase for those companies that prefer to run the
software on their own servers or in their own data center.
