BRANCHBURG, N.J. - July 27, 2010 - SaaS

.com (www.SaaS

.com), a leading provider of Software as a Service (SaaS) with a major push in Workforce Management Applications, has grown its partner base with Astron Solutions, in order to assist the organization with covering a wider array of Human Resources (HR) needs on its FLARE™ platform. Astron Solutions' platform is currently being used in multiple industries, and its client base is nationwide.

"A few of our clients had been sharing with us the need for time and attendance. Since our clients' needs drive the direction of our business, we evaluated our modules in FLARE™, and concluded that there were some gaps that could be filled with a time and labor management application," explained Jennifer Loftus, National Director of Astron Solutions. "We determined that we didn't have the resources to develop these systems, so building the application from the ground up internally wasn't feasible. As such, we set out to find an outside provider that was knowledgeable, ethical, and reliable. SaaS

.com exemplified these characteristics as a partner."

Unlike many other providers, Astron Solutions unifies the provision of both consulting and technology services. "As our existing FLARE™ platform is extremely configurable, it was important that the time and labor management application have a customizable rule set," stated Loftus. "Since the SaaS

.com application can be customized to match the laws in any state, we can provide the system to any of our existing or prospective clients across the country."

"The industries most receptive to our brand are non-profits and healthcare organizations. After evaluating our existing clients, we found that a number of these organizations are still using spreadsheets or paper timesheets to keep track of this data, giving us the opportunity to automate many of their processes," said Loftus. Since the pricing is within the scope of fees that Astron Solutions charges for its other modules, the organization can integrate the application with its existing offering's billing processes.

In order to bring the application to market, Astron Solutions has updated its marketing materials to include time and labor management as one of the FLARE™ platform's modules, and will distribute the materials to existing and prospective clients. Additionally, the organization will be circulating a quarterly newsletter to announce the new service, and an electronic calendar that highlights deadlines for HR reporting. "With the addition of the SaaS

.com application, we will continue to offer services with value-based pricing and demonstrate that FLARE™ can cover the entire spectrum of HR needs for clients, all from a single platform," concluded Loftus.
