SaaS (Software as a Service)

SaaS stands for "Software as a Service". It is a model where users access software via the Internet, rather than installing the software on their own computers. Companies that offer SaaS solutions host the software on their servers and allow users to connect and use the services online, often for a subscription fee.

How does the SaaS model work?

In a SaaS model, everything happens online. The user accesses the software through a web browser, without needing to install or update it. The SaaS provider handles maintenance, updates, and security. Users typically pay a monthly or annual subscription to access the service, which allows flexibility and scalability for businesses of all sizes.

Concrete example

Take the example of Slack, a team communication platform. Instead of having to install and update software on every computer, users connect to Slack via a browser or app and can exchange messages in real time. Slack handles hosting, updates, and security, while users pay a subscription to use the service.

Why choose a SaaS model?

The SaaS model is convenient for businesses because it reduces installation and maintenance costs. In addition, users can access services from any device connected to the Internet, providing greater flexibility. It is also a model that encourages frequent updates and improvements without interruption for users.
