eSpatial, leading provider of GIS (Geographical Information Systems) and pioneer in GIS delivered via Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), has granted AÇAO Informática exclusive rights to re-sell the SaaS-based edition of eSpatial OnDemand GIS™.
AÇAO and eSpatial already have a strong relationship: in 2008, AÇAO was granted the rights to re-sell the server-based edition of eSpatial OnDemand GIS in the South American market.
“Our partnership with AÇAO Informática has been mutually rewarding,” says Chief Executive Officer Philip O’Doherty. “We’re excited to continue to strengthen our relationship with this new arrangement.”
eSpatial’s investment in SaaS delivery has garnered significant interest from both GIS experts and newcomers to location intelligence. The combination of enterprise-grade GIS software, flexible, IT-free setup and low-cost subscription-based pricing has proven popular with both audiences.
“The global software industry is moving towards SaaS delivery,” says O’Doherty. “South Americans – and Brazilians in particular – are quick to adopt technology, including SaaS-based solutions.”
“We’re excited about extending our partnership with AÇAO Informática – and the creation of opportunities for South American businesses to leverage enterprise-grade, SaaS-based GIS software.”
