SaaS refers to a subscription-based model in which the software is hosted in the cloud and accessed through the internet.

The significant benefits of SaaS include no hardware costs, no initial set up costs, pay for what the customer use factor, scalable usage, automatic updates, cross-device compatibility, and accessible from any location. The users neither manage nor control the cloud infrastructure, which includes networks, servers, operating systems, storage, and individual application capabilities.
