Signetique Extends Promotional Discount for Its Cloud Computing Services
Singapore (PRWEB) June 30, 2013 -- Leading Singapore web host, Signetique, is extending its cloud hosting promotional discount for another month. According to the company, this is in direct response to an overwhelming interest in its cloud hosting services. Further, Singaporean small and medium size enterprises (SMEs) can leverage on a government funding scheme to not only gain full funding to cloud computing services for up to three years, but also get a rebate if they decide to move to the cloud.
Called the Productivity and Innovation Credit (PIC) scheme, SMEs stand to gain 60% rebate on all investments in automation products and services, such as cloud computing, every year up to the year 2015. The PIC scheme was first announced in Singapore Budget 2010 to encourage businesses in Singapore to improve their capabilities and enhance competitiveness by investing in a range of qualifying activities that improve productivity and facilitates innovation. Additionally, to encourage greater adoption of this scheme, from year 2013 to 2015, IRAS (Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore) is giving an additional cash bonus to SMEs, for every dollar spent on qualifying activities up to a maximum S$15,000.00 for the entire period.
“SMEs should take full advantage of this scheme now. As we know, cloud computing is the way forward for most SMEs as it will help reduce IT costs in the long run and improve productivity through outsourcing and divestment from legacy and proprietary software and hardware.” Raymond Tan, CEO Signetique, “through the PIC and PIC Bonus schemes, SMEs not only minimize the cost of moving to the cloud, but in the process, receive a bonus from the government for doing so. It's a no brainer, really.”
This is how the scheme will benefit SMEs who choose Signetique Cloud:
Suppose a company spends S$5,000 a year on Signetique's cloud computing services. Under the scheme, SMEs qualify for 60% rebate every year up to the year 2015. Additionally, under PIC Bonus, for every dollar spent, up to S$15,000 will be paid out as a cash bonus for the entire three-year period. In this example, in essence, not only do SMEs not have to pay for the cloud services they subscribe to, they also stand to receive, over three years, a maximum of S$9000 in the form of a rebate.
