Benefits of Software as a Service (SaaS)
Customers find that STAR SaaS applications provide several benefits over
traditionally licensed, locally installed software:
•
Virtually on-demand software - Because the Internet-based software is
already installed and running on ACO Information Services’ servers,
implementation time is dramatically slashed.
•
Budget-friendly, pay-as-you-go plan - Flexible subscriptions with no up-front
licensing charges make STAR SaaS delivery extremely budget-friendly.
•
Cost-effective, “right-size” solution - Not every business or agency requires a
full enterprise-wide solution. By subscribing to STAR SaaS on a per-number of
seats, per-subscription period basis, you pay only for the software you need.
•
Freedom to do the job you’re responsible for - With STAR SaaS, you’re free
to focus on your own mission-critical tasks while ACO Information Services takes
responsibility for the infrastructure and software required to let you do that.
•
No effect on staffing levels - Additional hardware and networking capabilities
are not required, so you do not need additional staff to install and maintain the
application.
•
Maintenance included - Your software is always up to date because quality-
tested software upgrades are part of your subscription.
•
Available when and where you need it - STAR SaaS is available anytime and
anywhere an Internet connection is available.
•
Disaster prevention - ACO Information Services has implemented measures to
ensure that your data is fully protected and always available. Click the “Data
