What is SaaS?
SaaS is a software application that is accessed with a Web browser (Eg. IExplorer, Firefox, Netscape...) over a network such as the Internet or an Intranet. SaaS is usually made available by Application Service Providers (ASPs)
What are the benefits of purchasing SaaS from an ASP?
- You do not incur the full development cost of the application,
- You pay a minimal fee based on a monthly rate or on a volume of action (eg. Online sales orders processed),
- Pay-as-you-go pricing models,
- You do not "worry" about technical issues to make your business application work,
- You do not need to purchase or upgrade software on your computer,
- Web Applications can be developed to meet your customized business requirements.
