Software-as-a-Service (SaaS)
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), 'Cloud Computing', ‘Enterprise Computing' or a 'Web 2.0' solution, can deliver big benefits such as:-
- No software installation, testing, staging, commissioning or maintenance
- Shorter deployment cycles with users are up and running in minutes instead of months
- Reduce the risk of acquiring new software to just 1 month’s rent
- Global reach with 24/7/365 availability
- Flexibility to change usage instantly as your businesses changes
- Service Level Agreements with predictable up-times and expert, dedicated staff devoted to your application for rapid problem fixes
- Constant product improvements. SaaS allows for consistent and continuous small updates and improvements that accumulate over time to deliver better, smoother functionality instead of traditional large patches and upgrades
- Less Pain for IT. SaaS can offload much of the IT workload of traditional client/server models, leaving IT staff free to focus on bigger/strategic issues instead of supporting Office applications
- Re-shaped IT Budgets. Outsourcing a solution means predictable spend and infrastructure savings
- Excellent Support. Permits a more tightly-focussed IT knowledge base, leaving enterprise IT staff free to concentrate on more important strategic issues
- Cost savings. Costs saved by SaaS solutions can be reallocated to boost productivity in other areas.
