Software As A Service

Why Software As A Service?

More and more organizations are turning to Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), or "on-demand," solutions for their enterprise-wide needs. It's no wonder, as SaaS addresses some key shortcomings of installed software. Here's a closer look at the SaaS advantage.

Better Return on Your Investment

SaaS applications require minimal up front costs, no hardware to buy or install, little or no IT involvement and virtually no risk. That's why SaaS software can reduce the cost of ownership by up to 40% compared to traditional deployments (McKinsey 2006). SaaS also has predictable subscription pricing, which simplifies budgeting and forecasting.

Rapid Implementation

Installed software deployments can last from several months to over a year because the costly and time-consuming customisation work requires complex programming. And sometimes, the software never even gets deployed!

In contrast, SaaS software is implemented in a matter of days, so you can start realizing business value right away.

Automatic Upgrades

With installed software, users are relegated to outdated software because IT departments are too overburdened to allocate resources to plan, stage, test and train users for upgrades. Compare this with SaaS applications, which are automatically kept up to date. At Comnicate, we release frequent software upgrades driven by continual feedback from our global, cross-industry customer base. Your users are always on the most current software release, giving them instant access to exciting innovations - at no additional cost.

Improved Customer Satisfaction

While installed software involves a one-time purchase, SaaS is available on a subscription basis. As a result, Power Steering is continually focused on doing everything we can to maintain your satisfaction and earn your business again year after year.
