Milton Keynes, UK 20th November 2009. RealTech Solutions Limited creators of the RealSaaS deployment engine today announced a partnership with The Business Software Centre Limited, to provide users with cloud-based Microsoft™ Office Professional Plus 2007 via the Rentsoft™ service. The RealSaaS deployment engine and a newly developed end-user interface called ‘myHosted Applications’ allows cloud applications to run directly from a desktop.

Kevin Burrows     RealTech Solutions Managing Director said, “Whilst there have been many discussions about cloud computing over the past few months, offering the Microsoft Office suite of products using both Cloud Computing and Software as a Service is a world first! Some of the benefits to the end user include no upfront costs and free upgrades to the new Microsoft Office 2010 suite available next year.” He continued, “The office applications are launched from the myHosted Applications toolbar and act as if locally installed. Users simply subscribe to the service and can start using the Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007 straight away!”
