Software as a service (SaaS) is the practice of licencing and delivering software as a subscription rather than through a one-time installation or purchase. Powered by the cloud, SaaS apps can be accessed on all your devices as long as you have a browser and an internet connection.
The SaaS business model typically involves offering customers a tiered subscription model with an entry-level free version and additional features locked behind paid tiers. The SaaS model owes its popularity and success to the power and flexibility of the cloud.

Whether they’re sending emails, collaborating in real time on documents, or managing enterprise resource planning (ERP) workflows, people just want their SaaS product to work without having to think much about it.
