Dell introduced SaaS package for Europe

Dell has rolled out a SaaS package Dell Modular Services to enable European businesses to outsource functions such as email, software-licence management, disaster recovery and laptop encryption. The suite is already available in the US. The package includes six offerings: Distributed Device Management, Software Inventory, Online Backup and Restore, Laptop Data Encryption, Email Management and Crisis Management. All are designed to help businesses to cut costs through the use of highly automated, cloud-based software. Customers can pick and choose from a number of different features offered as a part of each service, and businesses can add or remove features as their needs change. Dell did not give specifics on pricing, but said it was designed to be flexible, with billing offered on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis.
