The performance of Salesforce.com, for the recent quarters, which is actually the largest provider of SaaS services, is testimony of its success. Salesforce declared $13.8 million in the recent quarter which is a drastic surge from the previous ones. Salesforce managed to boosts is its revenue coffers handsomely by 5% over the last quarter.
Speaking of a Springboard research survey, which primarily included Asians, the report revealed that more than 35 percent of the respondents were interested in procuring SaaS-based ERP within a year. About 20% of them were using it. The audience specifically included 530 CIOs and decision makers from different industries. According to the same report SaaS based ERP solutions are expected to surge in Asia Pacific and is projected to rise to US$193 million by 2012. SaaS ERP is now becoming mission-critical instead of being an elementary CRM solution.
Some of the important pillars for SaaS implementation and integration are:
The primary need is to have a comprehensive record of client demographics which can be a master record. Professionals who are adept in understanding the whole process from quote to cash are needed especially to assess the flow.
Multiple skills are required if SaaS has to be implemented wherein even an amateur can find data related to customers because the integration process is hectic and demands multiple skills. Versatility is important in this field. An all-rounder can succeed in this environment.
Many have started to look at SaaS solutions because many do not have the required resources to get work done.
Vendors have started packaging up all types of solutions bundled up with the main software for integration. Integration can be made easier for IT by implementing certain steps. Some appliances allow IT for configuration of the integration process and make use of menus instead of codes.
The major integration issues depend on middleware, connectivity to SaaS Development solutions, existing business rule-based workflows and the ability to ensure that perfect information is dispatched and passed on, from one node to another.

In conclusion, it is not how SaaS services find a market in the enterprise scenario or IT industry, but it is rather how IT can make SaaS development solutions work. Most small and medium-sized businesses would want to adopt SaaS, because small and lean companies with not much of a staff and includes a core team of about fifty employees would not want to spend money on licensed software.
Multi-Tenant Apps is the only underlying, mission-critical characteristic that enables an application to deliver all of the important benefits of SaaS Development
