Basically I think it comes down to this: With traditional EDI the customer needs to purchase the EDI software and pay annual maintenance own/operate server(s) to run the software on do the data mapping (and/or operation) or outsource these functions. Bottom line - greater initial outlay With Cloud EDI No software is purchased - they pay a monthly and/or transaction fee No server required The mapping may be done by the EDI hosting company. Operation and data management is done by the hosting company. Little initial outlay - annual or 3 yr commitment may be required. In the cases we looked at the break-even point is 3 years operation of the cloud EDI platform costs about the same as the first year owned option. Liaison Technologies has their LENS and other cloud platform that works very well especially for large volume users.

I've trained on Salesforce.com, but their Order Management is handled by partners and seems very primitive from an EDI perspective - at least when I last looked at it. Do any of you have any experience with Cloud platforms as part of EDI (B2B) integration? I'm certain familiar with TaaS.
