What is the difference between web based vs Software-as-a-Service(SaaS)?
Web based is an application that is accessed via a web browser over a network such as the internet or an intranet. When purchasing software most companies require a web based application so that they do not have to install software on everyone’s machine and only have to maintain the application on a server. ASP is an application service provider, a business that provides computer based services to customers over a network. Sometimes this can be termed as SAAS (software as a service) or on-demand software.
