Rating:  Summary: Poor Price/Performance Ratio Review: I have just written my thesis paper on ASPs and know that there is little good literature on the topic. Therefore, I was willing to pay a bit more for one of the few books that is out on the market. In this case this is a big mistake. The promising title does not reveal the actual content of the book. The author only touches the ASP topic and does not really present more than the basics.I can advise people to buy this book if they are looking for easy literature. For serious academic or business papers it is really not suited.
Rating:  Summary: Intresting book with a focus on Small Businesses is helpful! Review: One of the most challenging jobs I have had to deal with is advising small businesses on just what the ASP model means to them. This book has the basis in advising companies about small businesses and what the role of an AP can mean to them. The concept of breaking out e-marketing, e-commerce and e-operations is innovative and really helps the small businessperson understand what an ASP model can do for them. I think the approach to creating a performance contract with an ASP is also very helpful. The author takes the direction of having Service Level Agreements being just the beginning. Performance incentives needs to be in place for a company to really get their money's worth out of an ASP relationship. This book was very useful in getting small businesses to understand the ASP model.
Rating:  Summary: Focus on partnerships helpful Review: This book provides a great example of how to work with ASPs as partners in a business relationship. It is a very good book for guiding companies in creating a web strategy with an ASP.
Rating:  Summary: Intresting book with a focus on Small Businesses is helpful! Review: What's refreshing about this book is its' focus on the idea that ASPs are supposed to be business partners with their clients. I found the aspects on developing contracts over just Service Level Agreements valuable. It was worth the reading.
