* From Wikipedia, following is a good definition of SaaS
Software as a Service (SaaS), typically pronounced
'sass') is a model of
software deployment where an application is hosted as a service
provided to customers across the
Internet. By eliminating the need to install and run the
application on the customer's own computer, SaaS alleviates the
customer's burden of software maintenance, ongoing operation, and
support. Conversely, customers relinquish control over software
versions or changing requirements; moreover, costs to use the
service become a continuous expense, rather than a single expense at
time of purchase. Using SaaS also can conceivably reduce that
up-front expense of software purchases, through less costly,
on-demand pricing. SaaS lets software vendors control and limit
use, prohibits copies and distribution, and control all derivative
versions of their software. This centralized control often allows
the vendor to establish an ongoing revenue stream. The SaaS software
vendor may host the application on its own web server, or this
function may be handled by a third-party
application service provider (ASP). This way, end users may
reduce their investment on server hardware too.
