SaaS Is Changing The Way Business Is Done

Unless you've been ignoring all the technology trends going on today, you're probably familiar with SaaS - or Software as a Service - and how this is revolutionizing the way that business is being done.

 Here are a few ways that SaaS is a game changer for businesses of all sizes:

• Reduces the need for local computer storage. Since SaaS runs on cloud infrastructure, this greatly reduces the need for local storage on your network computers for whatever application SaaS is being used to run.
• Reduces risk of data loss. While owning your own computers is a great idea, you don't necessarily want to use them to store all of your key data. While no one ever wants to think of the worst case scenario, if your computers are ever stolen, lost, breached or the hard drive goes bad you're about to have a really bad day trying to restore this information from no where.
• Reduces costs. By shifting data and applications to cloud infrastructure, you won't be required to download software programs that take up valuable disc space on your computer. Further, SaaS software is always being updated, so you don't have to worry about having outdated software programs saved on your computer.
• Provides accessibility. Since most all SaaS programs are designed to be accessible from anywhere that has Internet access, you can access your products or services from virtually anywhere - even if you're not using your primary business terminal. This offers flexibility to any business owner that's frequently away from his desk or a salesperson that's on the road closing business deals.

Software as a Service is now being used to provide a myriad of business products such as Web Presence Builder which empowers small business owners to quickly design a great online Web Presence without the need for expensive web designers. 

Other advancements include Cloud Phone Systems that allow small businesses to have an enterprise style phone system, complete with a local, toll-free or vanity phone number without needing to purchase an expensive PBX system to route phone calls. This works in conjunction with already existing phone lines so there's no need to spend additional money on new phones. Just pick your plan, your phone number and start taking incoming phone calls immediately!
