Executive Council on Software as a Service
The "Software as a Service" (SaaS) model holds great promise for independent software vendors, technology providers and consumers alike. SIIA is now working with member companies to assure a smooth transition for software publishers and a robust future for the software service model. SIIA, as a neutral industry group working to validate the business model, is uniquely positioned to address the challenges of the new paradigm, illuminate benefits and drive acceptance among industry analysts and potential customers.
