Synopsis

Thesis (M.A.) from the year 2015 in the subject Computer Science - Software, grade: 1.6, Central Queensland University, course: Arts Administration Research, language: English, abstract: Software as a Service (SaaS) is changing the way businesses operate.

As a startup in the SaaS space, it is a long and perilous journey just to survive, let alone be notably successful. As the marketplaces have become quickly crowded, just finding a niche deems very difficult, let alone actively dominating one. The big players easily establish themselves, offering freemium cloud storage and software build upon already successfully proven programs. Microsoft now offers its Office suite in the cloud and Google has its slew of online business tools, all as various and competitively priced monthly subscriptions. Other startups moved in quickly at the outset, snatching up software real estate and thriving: Basecamp for project management, Freshbooks for accounting, Salesforce for customer relationship management, Pinterest for project and interest discovery, Snapchat for innovative mobile conversation, the list goes on (Vidra, 2014). So what exactly does it take to survive as a SaaS startup in today's information age? Technologi
