Indian SaaS startups are yet to figure out a way to crack the small and medium businesses (SMBs) market. While many of them hold the view that Indian SMBs are too price-sensitive and it is not easy to do business with them, a few have cracked the market and are doing good business. That being said, most of the SaaS startups that currently cater to global markets feel that India is maturing and they will start looking back at the domestic market in the future.
Techcircle.in provided a platform to five fledgling SaaS startups to showcase their products at the recently-concluded Techcircle SaaS Forum 2014. Here is a quick look at them:
ShieldSquare: The startup helps protect online businesses against web scraping and bot (a type of malware) attacks, thus increasing revenues and improving the site performance. The startup uses a combination of dynamic bot challenge system (non-intrusive to the user), behaviour pattern analysis, device and network profiling to identify, detect, assess and protect against site scraping activity done on the website.
