Why you should consider SAAS for your business application?

SAAS subscription models such as Smart HRMS are gaining ground over the traditional software license and maintenance models as enterprise customers become more comfortable accessing their software in the cloud and paying monthly subscriptions, compared with a large upfront perpetual license fee.

In the traditional software world, software companies do most of their business by selling a perpetual license to their software and later on selling upgrades. In this model, customers pay for the software license up front and then typically pay a recurring annual maintenance fee.

As the global computing industry becomes more diversified in terms of networking platforms and access devices, software delivery is slowly morphing into a subscription service that can be accessed anywhere, at any time, and on any device.

The benefits of SAAS have successfully persuaded companies of all sizes embracing into it as the next best alternative to on-premise software development.

With just an internet connection, employees can access their software tools and data from anywhere with any device without being required to install software and access a VPN.

• Zero Infrastructure
