This means that instead of installing a program into a single computer unit in the company, the program can be accessed by multiple units via the internet. Now what does that mean? It means savings on licensing original products and cost reduction on IT maintenance, a problem that has become a vital and important issue for chief information officers according to experts.

Punjab & Sind Bank Moved Deal to Wipro after Satyam
Competition is stiff in the outsourcing industry, which is why outsourcers really have to perform in order to not just meet their clients’ expectations, but to exceed it.

Just take a look at the Satyam (NYSE:SAY) - Punjab & Sind contract, which has now become the Wipro (NYSE:WIT) - Punjab & Sind bank contract.
