What factors are important in choosing between SaaS (software as a service) and licensed software?
TimeTrade can host your application or sell you a traditional software license and maintenance agreement for you to host the application yourself. The choice really depends on whether you want to “rent” or buy the software, and the level of technical resources in your organization to support the application. Security, reliability, and performance of our SaaS-based solution should be of little concern. We host our servers and application in highly secure data centers that are manned around the clock. Our hosting configuration is fully redundant, and we utilize 128-bit SSL encryption, and multiple, password-protected levels of security. We routinely perform load testing on the application using Segue Silk Performer software.
