In making key fundamental decisions in system and
technical architecture, ecrux adopts a Software as a Service (SaaS)
approach where deemed necessary. This means our clients can rest
assured that they will always get the best solution, irrespective of
cost to us.
Software as a Service is a model of software
deployment where an software is licensed for use as a service
provided to our customers on demand. On demand licensing and use
alleviates the customer's burden of equipping a device with every
software. It also reduces traditional End User Licensing Agreement
(EULA) software maintenance, ongoing operation patches, and patch
support complexity in an organization. On demand licensing enables
software to become a variable expense, rather than a fixed cost at the
time of purchase. It also enables licensing only the amount of software
needed versus traditional licenses per device. SaaS also enables the
buyer to share licenses across their organization and between
organizations, to reduce the cost of acquiring EULAs for every device in
their firm.
Take for example, a client wanted to create a CRM
system which was costing them well over their required budget.
Instead of turning them away, what we did was create a solution which
more than one company can use yet is tailored/configured specifically to
the company using it and charged them a small monthly fee instead of a
large fixed cost. By doing this we were able to offer our client a
low-cost solution specific to their requirements without them having to
spend thousands.
Take for example, our client was storing terabytes
worth of data and always running out of hardware capacity to handle such
data. Not only did we help organise their data to be more
efficient and reduce redundant data, we provided them a solution which
expands based on the amount of storage they require.
