In honor of the last night of Hanukkah, I want to give thanks for the miracle of SaaS. Here are my eight (8) favorite reasons to use SaaS.
1. Access anywhere – use my application from anywhere through a browser
2. Access from any device – use on any device (with a browser, iPhone or Android app)
3. Great mashups – combine with other services on the web to create new applications
4. Collaboration – exchange information with anyone since everything is on the Internet
5. Add users quickly – pay for a single user, send them an email to register and get them up and running fast
6. Continuous improvement – since SaaS is multi-tenant, get the benefit immediately of new updates or fixes
7. Lower costs – lower operating & maintenance costs, since I don’t have to buy or maintain hardware or software
8. Lower risk – start with a few users for minimal cost (or start with a free trial) to see if the application works for me
For all those who celebrate the festival of lights, have a Happy Hanukkah and enjoy the miracle ofSaaS.
