Why using SaaS is a better solution.
“Software as a Service” is a type of software deployment where a Software Service provider licenses a particular application to an end user or company for use as a service on demand. SaaS software vendors typically host the application on their own web servers for use whenever and wherever the user wants to access the software. The on-demand can be licensed in many different ways including sites, users, elements within the software, etc…
Using SaaS for your access control solution reduces the reliance on outdated software and old workstations or servers. Using SaaS provides reliable, real-time access control of your company’s facility. You and your staff can monitor and completely administer the entire system from virtually any PC on the planet.
Below are 5 cost saving benefits of using a SaaS solution for your security system.
1. Operational Efficiency: Improve response time with 24/7 access to the software from any computer. Whether you are at work, at home, or on the road you can have complete access to the security system.
2. Easy Web-Based Administrator: You and your staff can manage the access control system through a familiar web-based software solution. If you can use the internet then you can use a SaaS solution.
3. Automatic Software Updates: Updates to the software are performed automatically and do not require downtime or on-site service calls. You always have the latest software technology, updated seamlessly.
4. Easy Card Management: Easily revoke, add or change cards in the system for staff and contractors without the hassle of managing keys or re-keying locks. Changes to the system can be done from anywhere saving you time and money.
5. Backup and Disaster Recovery: Using a SaaS solution eliminates the need for local backups to be performed by you or an IT staff. Backups are done at the remote data center and stored at a secure location. Since there is no database or server on-site, disaster recovery is simplified.
A SaaS solution for a security system is an excellent choice. Security systems, especially the PC and software often are left alone and forgotten about, until there is a problem. When a problem occurs it can be costly and have significant downtime. Using a SaaS solution eliminates problems with local servers or workstations. You don’t have to be concerned about the server upkeep, software updates and patches, and virus protection. These are all managed and provided for you with your base subscription license.
When thinking about deploying or upgrading your access control system look at all the advantages that SaaS solutions have to provide. More and more companies today continue to move their software investments to a Cloud or SaaS solution. Using a SaaS solution allows you and your company to stay ahead of the curve and invest in something that will last for many years.
