Software as a service definition

Definition :
Software as a Service (SaaS) is a model of software deployment where an application is hosted as a service provided to customers across the Internet.

SaaS eliminates the need to install and run applications in-house and it enables organisations to get full technological support that comes from hosted solutions. Using SaaS also can conceivably reduce that up-front expense of software purchases whilst also getting the benefits of having a 24/7 support infrastructure.

With the rise in demand and attitude towards "software as a service" in recent years, Experian QAS have responded with the launch of our QAS Pro OnDemand product offering. Our dedicated servers and Experian hosted platforms are supported by a wide range of international datasets. Business IT strategies will be proactively supported by our QAS Pro On Demand product, and help you move towards the SaaS delivery of your QAS products.
