I've heard from a few sources that they didn't feel that YC was as good for B2B SaaS as it was for other types of businesses. It seems like their attention is more focused on B2C and if you are B2B it better have some sort of innovation on the businesses model or customer acquisition (think Zenefits). All up this doesn't seem to be something I could be critical of them for. Of course you want to work with people who have an unfair advantage and of all the advantages to have, a user acquisition advantage may be the highest leverage.
My company is B2B SaaS and will be applying despite this caution that other's have raised. While we're always iterating & investigating to find distribution channels for our marketing & product, I wouldn't say we've found anything truly innovative. Just grinding on execution.
