Software as a Service (SaaS)
Cloud Computing leverages with the fact that for most companies they can’t cost effectively build the reliability and scalability themselves. With Cloud computing you no longer have to worry about the hardware, software, power, connectivity, security, upgrades, backups etc. Effectively, you simply use the software as a service (SaaS) and let someone else look after everything that is involved with managing that highly available infrastructure.
What are the benefits of SaaS and Cloud Computing?
- No software to install so you can be up and running quickly
- No internal infrastructure and maintenance costs
- The software is always up-to-date online
- Integrate seamlessly with other SaaS services to bring the applications you use most into one environment
- On demand pay as you go pricing
- Scalable solutions to fit small and large businesses
It is up to business owners to assess the trade-offs posed between the obvious benefits of SaaS and operating in the Cloud and mitigating any risks as they would elsewhere in their business. Often business owners may find that a hosted solution offers more security than they can provide internally.
