Philosophy

Software and business professionals generally associate the term SaaS with business software, and as a possibly lower-cost way for businesses to use software as needed rather than license every application on every device. With a well-designed implementation and properly priced licenses, on-demand SaaS provides license benefits without the associated complexity and the potential high cost to equip devices with applications they may not need.
Though many Unix applications already work using the SaaS model, EULA applications did not have this flexibility before SaaS. A licensed copy of a word processor, for example, had to reside on each machine in order to create a document on that machine. The equipped program has no intrinsic value loaded on a computer that is turned off for the night. The same employee would need another fully paid license to write or edit a report at home on their own computer, while the work license is inoperative
