SaaS Development
What is SaaS?
Software as a Service = SaaS
It’s a way of delivering applications over the Internet—as a service. Instead of installing and maintaining software, you simply access it via the Internet, freeing yourself from complex software and hardware management.
SaaS applications are sometimes called Web-based software, on-demand software, or hosted software.
The provider manages access to the application, including security, availability, and performance.
> SaaS applications run on a SaaS provider’s servers.
Increased efficiency and cost-effectiveness are the reasons many businesses give for turning to cloud-based SaaS solutions.
The advantages include:
Low setup and infrastructure costs
You just pay for what you need with no capital expenditure that needs to be depreciated on your balance sheet over time.
Accessible from anywhere
Just connect to the internet and you can work from wherever you need to be via desktop, laptop, tablet or mobile or another networked device.
Scalability
You can adapt your requirements to the number of people who need to use the system, the volume of data and the functionality required as your business grows.
Industry leading service level agreements (SLAS) for uptime and performance
So you have assurances that the software will be available to use when you need it – a difficult promise for in-house teams to make.
Automatic, frequent updates
Providers offer timely improvements thanks to their scale and because they receive feedback about what their customers need. This frees up your IT department for other more business-critical tasks.
Security at the highest level required by any customer
Because of the shared nature of the service, all users benefit from the security level that’s been set up for those with the highest need.
Cloud computing and SaaS have come a long way in a short time. Increased awareness and uptake has accelerated the growth of SaaS products and led to the rise of SaaS Integration Platforms (SIPs) such as Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and Platform as a Service (PaaS). Companies will continue to outsource non-core IT activities to specialist service providers who can do it better. The cloud approach can help companies develop end-to-end integrated solutions and allow them to concentrate on what they do best, leaving a wide range of hardware and software IT issues to service providers.
With companies adopting various “SaaS” services, long-term relationships with service providers will grow – which in turn will lead to innovation as customers’ growing needs are understood and provided for.
