SaaS and On Demand

A new and more efficient method of purchasing and utilising software is toppling the technology advantage that use to favour larger business.

Software as a Service (SaaS) and On Demand software make software from Word Processing to CRM & CMS available via the internet. To use these applications all you need it a web browser and an internet connection, the software is hosted on the web for you to access.

SaaS presents a number of benefits not attainable before a reliable Web & internet:

  • No software installation or Maintenance
  • No need for new hardware and hardware maintenance
  • Reduce deployment cycles
  • Anywhere, Anytime availability
  • SLA based servicing and bug fixing
  • Constatnt upgrades that do not effect usage – only improve it
  • Reduced internal IT spend and issues – the software looks after itself
  • Move from focus (and budget) from “How do we do that?” to “What do we want to achieve?”

For more information on SaaS you can visit Wikipedia or if you are thinking of using SaaS as part of your web project give a ThirdwayWeb adviser a call and find out how we can help.
