SaaS means that Unisite is offered as a service to our clients rather than as a product. Software products have always been a bitter-sweet investment by consumers because they get great value once the product is purchased but the product is out-dated before the shopper even reaches the exit door. This is why software product companies choose to offer ‘ugrade purchases’ to reward those customers who have bought previous versions of the software. Software service, on the other hand, offers much more to the client by taking on the upgrading and updating of software as part of the service. Essentially allowing the client to have the latest version of the software at all times.

Internet software only needs a simple computer to run the software because the information processing happens onine. This means that you wont need to upgrade your computer hardware whenever the software is updated. Your information is also stored securely online – safe from any computer crashes.

The Unisite Web Based Business Software concept, supported by the SaaS model has so much more to offer the client.

1. All software features remotely accessible through the web/cloud.
2. SaaS primarily uses a ‘user’ based pricing system which means that entry level costs can be very low for small and large businesses.
3. SaaS revenue streams to the client are therefore lower initially than traditional software license fees, but are also recurring, and therefore more predictable, much like website hosting fees.
4. Centralized feature updating, which removes the need for end-users to download patches and upgrades.
5. More feature requests from users since there is frequently no marginal cost for requesting new features.
6. Faster releases of new features since the entire community of users benefits from new functionality.
7. Offsite Data backup built into service offering.
8. SaaS software increases effeciency and productivity and replaces unnecessary human resource.

The system has recently been upgraded with a few New Features that make the system easier to use.

1. One Touch Email and One Touch PDF are proof that Sesalos continues to look at providing the easiest options for the Unisite. The One Touch facilities allow the users to create PDF copies of quotes and invoices and save them to your computer hard drive without any additional PDF Creator software. The One Touch Email takes that same PDF and emails it directly to the client that you created the quote or invoice for.
2. Automatic creation of invoices for monthly billing. Known as Recurring Billing this tool saves valuable time recreating invoices each month by recurring the creation of the invoice on a preset date each month. A great tool for business’s that run on monthly billed income. If you integrate the Communications Suite into the Invoicing Suite all these recreated invoices can be automatically emailed to the client.
