Pragmatic Marketing Magazine has an in-depth look at the economics of purchasing SaaS (software-as-a-service) solution versus a software solution.
While the article is (overly) technical and lengthy, they arrive at a definitive conclusion.
The SaaS model ultimately provides the same type of products as a software licensing model—but with a better economic model, one that is lower in cost to the customer and structurally inclined to keep getting better for the customer with every new release.
Personally, I like the idea of purchasing from a company that is financially motivated to keep me happy, not one that is pressured to find another customer as soon as I’ve written my check.
