Software as a Service (SaaS), meaning delivering software over the Internet, is increasingly popular for its ability to simplify deployment and reduce customer acquisition costs; it also allows developers to support many customers with a single version of a product. SaaS is also often associated with a "pay as you go" subscription licensing model.
Software as a Service (Saas) is a new delivery method that's shaking up the the industry. Despite the quick growth of the SaaS market, some people still have difficulty coming to an understanding of how this model can be utilized to achieve a more cost effective and efficient alternative for their business or organization. The concept is simple and attractive - rather than committing to a daunting capital outlay for a custom software application to be installed on a local network environment (like a CRM or accounting package) you pay a small licensing fee for a fully web-based solution hosted on a managed service.
There are some very specific reasons the SaaS industry is growing exponentially:
- Lower up-front development costs.
- No ongoing maintenance - no on-site applications and software.
- No homegrown applications that need constant tweaking.
- No servers to maintain, patch, and secure.
- No in-house network to protect and maintain.
- Seamless upgrades - often 2 to 3 times per year.
- No broken integrations from upgrades.
- Fast implementation - companies can have full-blown applications in weeks rather than months and years.
- Flexible application that can change and grow as the business changes and grows.
