SaaS SERVICES


Software as a Service, or SaaS, is a software application delivery model where a software vendor develops a web-based software application and hosts (either independently or through a third-party) the application for use by its customers over the Internet. Customers thereby save by avoiding the cost of purchasing and managing hardware as well as costly upgrades associated with traditional enterprise software applications.

In addition, what has become the standard licensing model for SaaS vendors provides customers the ability to flexibly adjust their usage based on their actual needs and to pay for their usage on a subscription basis. This has several benefits for customers. They only pay for what they actually use and there are considerably lower costs of adopting the software in the first place. Furthermore, given the usage model, vendors are encouraged to continuously provide improvements to the software lest the customer move to a competitor's service.

Adobe Flex

Effective user experiences are key to any company's success. An effective user experience is the difference between a customer who designs, personalizes, and purchases a product and a customer who gets frustrated and abandons a website. It's the difference between a sales manager who enters a customer meeting armed with rich, analyzed data and a manager working with yesterday's out-of-context numbers. It's the difference between a customer managing her account by herself and a customer spending 20 minutes on the phone with a service representative who could be solving more critical problems.

A Rich Internet Application (RIA) is an entirely new kind of web experience that is engaging, interactive, lightweight, and flexible. RIAs offer the flexibility and ease of use of an intelligent desktop application, and add the broad reach of traditional web applications.

Flex™ 2 is Adobe's tool that enterprises use to build and deploy RIAs. Flex enables enterprises to create personalized, multimedia-rich applications that dramatically enhance user experience, increasing customer satisfaction and making users more productive.
