software as a service

We host and deliver complete solutions to you, your employees, and where applicable your end clients, and third party suppliers directly to your desktop computers via the internet. Analysts predict that in 5 years time over 60% of all new software will be provided in this way via Software as a Service models. Compared to the traditional ‘purchasing’ or licensing of software the Software as a Service model provides specific and flexible benefits including:

  • low entry costs – no upfront ‘purchasing’ of software or licenses
  • variable fees – fees vary with your transactional volumes reducing your financial risk
  • increased information accessibility – web based systems allow you to interrogate your data from anywhere in the world with internet access
  • no infrastructure – your data is hosted on our servers in a Tier 3 (ISP level) data centre with full disaster recovery so you have no local software costs and don’t have to worry about ageing technology, software upgrades, infrastructure, maintenance, IT expertise or training costs. You just need internet access.
  • easy growth path – the variable fee structure allows the software to grow with you
  • flexibility – web based solutions allow for much easier and quicker enhancements
  • low investment risk – instead of a large initial investment you pay ongoing weekly or monthly fees (enhancing cashflow). If you are not happy with the service you can terminate it and stop paying. This significantly reduces your investment risk.
