Things to Consider while Opting for SaaS Implementation Services

One of the 3 major categories of cloud computing: Infrastructure as a service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS) and Software as a service (SaaS), SaaS is a model of software delivery and distribution wherein a provider is responsible to host and manage your application and make it available to the end-users over Internet. To achieve successful SaaS implementation to your business infrastructure, here are some of the steps your business MUST take:

1. Understand the ‘why’ of implementing SaaS

Understanding the ‘why’ of implementing SaaS to your business infrastructure will help you arrive at the ‘how’ of it rather more efficiently. There can be several reasons to implement SaaS for your business, ranging from improving the operational efficiency, to being able to focus better on the core business activities but the starting point for a business should be to understand this purpose clearly. In addition to this, a clear understanding of how the existing systems work, also help a business implement SaaS to their existing system easily.

2. Understand the prerequisites to achieve this reason for implementing SaaS

Once the purpose of SaaS implementation is known, the prerequisites of achieving this purpose can be achieved. This is like going into further details of ‘exactly what features their software should possess’ and ‘what all functions it should be enabled to perform in order to achieve its very purpose’. By answering these questions, a business can figure exactly what kind of SaaS service or solution it needs to implement.

3. Enter a Service Level Agreement before signing the contract

Entering a Service Level Agreement helps you clearly define the scope of SaaS implementation services offered by your provider and the exact nature of association between your provider and your business along with the consequences of all possible situations to avoid any potential issues related to the service delivery once you have signed the contract.
