Software as a Service (SaaS), is probably the best-known branch of cloud computing. It allows customers to consume applications based on a model that provides on-demand, self-service access to servers, applications and software development platforms.
Datacom offers a range of Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions from within the Datacom Cloud Services platform. These are provisioned on Datacom’s commercially available cloud service and are available for consumption by users globally via any internet-connected browser. This enables customers to take advantage of these solutions whilst being totally removed from the management and operation of the solution.
Key benefits of the Datacom SaaS offerings include:
- Cost savings: It can be very attractive to move from the capital-heavy expense of installing, maintaining and upgrading on-premises IT infrastructure to the operational cost of a SaaS subscription. We usually bill on a monthly subscription basis
- Scalability: As your business grows and you need to add more users, rather than investing in additional in-house server capacity and software licences you can adjust your subscription
- Accessibility: A browser and an internet connection is all that's usually required to access a SaaS application, which can therefore be made available on a wide range of desktop and mobile devices
- Upgradeability: Datacom deals with hardware and software updates, removing a significant workload from your team
- Resilience: Datacom’s Cloud services provide a high degree of resilience
Our SaaS offerings are available to our PaaS and Cloud Portal customers via our Application Marketplace. Some of the current Datacom SaaS offerings include:
