REDWOOD CITY, CA--(Marketwired - May 20, 2013) - Kenandy, Inc. announced today that it was chosen as one of the OnDemand Top 100 companies by AlwaysOn, the online business media network. The winners are the top emerging firms creating disruptive cloud technologies. The companies are nominated by leading investors and industry experts based on five criteria: innovation, market potential, commercialization, stakeholder value, and media buzz. Kenandy will be honored today at the fourth annual OnDemand summit in Palo Alto, CA.
"This year's OnDemand 100 winners represent the companies that are not only providing the space to develop daring, indispensible applications for a growing and increasingly mobile universe, they're making sure that everyone has their information, data, media, and apps whenever and wherever they happen to be," says Tony Perkins, founder and editor of AlwaysOn.
Applications developed on the cloud have many advantages over on-premise solutions including quick time to value and the flexibility to keep pace with a dynamic business climate. Nucleus Research found that cloud applications deliver 1.7 times more ROI than on-premise software. In addition, the applications are more accessible since they are built to be mobile, global and social. Kenandy is leveraging the power of the cloud to produce ERP software that's robust, agile and provides real-time collaboration across the global enterprise.
"The large companies we work with are under pressure to get products to market faster and to adapt quickly to changes in their businesses," says Sandra Kurtzig, Chairman and CEO of Kenandy. "They want Kenandy because it offers quick time to value, scalability and flexibility, and continuous visibility across the enterprise. Kenandy is global, mobile and flexible from the core -- everything large enterprises need to stay competitive today."
The two-day OnDemand summit includes high-level debate and discourse on top trends and opportunities in the SaaS, cloud, on-demand, and mobile enterprise sectors. One of the speakers will be Kenandy COO Rod Butters, who will be part of a panel discussion today titled "What is Hot in SaaS." A complete list of the OnDemand Top 100 companies being honored today can be found on the AlwaysOn website.
