SaaS, or Software as a Service, is a cloud-based service where instead of downloading software on your desktop PC or business network to run and update, you instead access an application via an internet browser.
SaaS offers several benefits including cost savings, scalability, accessibility, and automatic updates. Since SaaS applications are hosted in the cloud, users can access them from any device with an internet connection,
SaaS typically uses a subscription-based pricing model, where users pay a recurring fee (monthly or annually) to access the software. Pricing may vary based on features, number of users, and usage levels.
In SaaS, updates are managed by the provider and are automatically deployed to users. This ensures that all users have access to the latest features and security enhancements without needing to manually install updates.
