The Opportunity
Software as a Service (SaaS) refers to the type of public cloud service that delivers software applications over the internet on a subscription basis. Users can access and use the software through web browsers without having to install or maintain it locally. SaaS eliminates the need for purchasing, installing, and updating software, thus offering convenience and automatic updates while allowing users to focus on using the software to meet their requirements. According to the October 2023 Statista Market Insights report “Software as a Service: Market Data & Analysis”, Software as a Service worldwide revenue is estimated to increase at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.1% to $282B in 2024.
