Re: SaaS is a great way to go green and save a LOT of money on electricity.

Well, that's sometimes a success message: According to estimates by the Federal Government, the boom in green energy to continue. And even more than expected. In the "National Action Plan for Renewable Energies, which drafted including the Frankfurter Rundschau, the federal government expects that even in ten years is the green electricity share of 38.6 percent. That would more than double in just one decade. The current share of nuclear electricity is about 23 percent - and has been falling for years. Because the federal government has ruled out building new nuclear plants is not expected to increase.

no wonder our office in Frankfurt is now also complete on solar power :-)

Actually your statement on Vision is not correct. While Deltek did aquire companies, they built Vision from the ground up and there is not a duplicate contact record. There is a single client and contact record that both CRM and Accounting use. I asked this question of them the other day when I saw their new Outlook integration and they showed me the single client and contact. Just wanted to make sure you were aware of that.

Yes, the apps for bb and iphone are quite different. Both come with advantages to one another. It means that should I use both to gain both apps. But, since prez obama using BB, it gained a rocket popularity then.

I read Handel's post and now yours and thought it important to contribute to the discussion. You talk about getting a bunch of new business because firms outgrow or can't manage their internal CRM systems, but you have to ask yourself why they built them in the first place. It's because if I buy an "off the shelf" system, it's a tremendous outlay of cash and resources with challenging data migration, and then whenever I want to customize something so it works the way we want it to work, it requires a service call, a wait, and sometimes $1000 just to begin the conversation, after which I've often been told, "yeah, we can't make it do that". Not sure how often you have gotten a group of those of us who use them in a room to see what we really need. Saying that CFOs and CIOs are the decisionmakers sounds like a little bit of a cop out to me. It's hard for me to believe that you can't get input from key users because they usually include the CEO and the Managing Principal.

What's amazing to is that all of this growth is going on in the middle of the most serious recession in housing since the Great Depression! To have this kind of application growth and iPhone sales growth is really incredible and something only a handful of the best companies in the world could execute. Congrats Apple. It was a long time coming.

I wouldn't try and make money with the app. Rather let the app sell something else. Give away the app for free to get maximum people using it, then have a backend way of making money such as selling advertising space around the functionality of the app once you have like 10,000 downloads and users using it.

The other model is to write the app so that it markets something you sell, for example clothes. And so your app is a cheapest clothes finder or something. It saves someone time searching and you make your money on the sale of the clothes, not the the app itself. JMO. Good luck.

Definitely, I would think that pricing it at 0.99 to 1.99 is the right strategy. Most kids don't even think twice downloading an app or game for that pricing. The best part is that they are probably not the person who pays the bills

This sounds awesome Dan. I've been following you guys since our first meeting last year. It sounds like the last year has brought a lot of progress to your company. I'm excited both to see a local company make good, as well as see a ColdFusion product like yours take off! We need more big CF projects like this out there for the sake of the community.

Re: iPhone Native Application development vs iPhone Web Application development

Nathan Derksen — Wed, 18 Mar 2009 14:52:02 -0000

Be careful about saying it takes 2-3 times the effort to build an iPhone app vs a web app. No doubt your web app developers are experienced and know the ins and outs of the technologies. Your iPhone developer sounded like he was not even an experienced C++ programmer, much less with Objective C. Not only was he learning a new language, he was learning a new API and a new set of architectural frameworks. Someone proficient with Objective C and with the kinds of model view controller frameworks common to standalone applications would no doubt make much shorter work of this.

Just some (hopefully) constructive feedback.

Aware of the costs restrictions - was looking for more confirmation on if this is even possible? Pandora/Facebook - all application pages I see do not drive to the iphone app store. They drive to a mobile WAP page with a link to the application page. Seems like poor user experience. Which leads me to beleive this is a development issue.

I have toyed with the idea about buying advertising, but it an get expensive. I have also changed our model a bit since APple will not let us signup users in the iPhone App. The idea is to drive users to our main web app and then allow them to use the iPhone app. I will make a post about this soon.

VagabondBoy — Fri, 06 Mar 2009 14:22:46 -0000

Are there any forums out there about driving traffic to your app? I know that placement on the app store is a way to do it but what about paid media? Is this a viable method to increase traffic to your application. All the examples I have seen have a landing page between search and the application store where you can buy the app. Is this due to a development issue? Any feedback or thoughts would be great!

Thanks for a great post, it was really nice to read through and have an insight on the pricing options.
I completely agree to you on many facts you have written here.
It is very true that you can sell 1000apps for $100 or 100000 for $0.99 and you would make the same money.
I would say selling 100000 for $0.99 may be much easier that selling 1000 for $100.
Still it may depend on case to case basis on what exactly we are selling.. so the decision should be based as a composite conclusion..

Can't wait to see the project in its entirety. Many times development goes longer than expected just because of those small pitfalls found along the way.

60M sounds accurate to me. I'd much rather develop for the I-Phone than a Blackberry.
