What is software as a service (SaaS)?

Software as a service or SaaS is a cloud-based delivery model where software applications are hosted and managed by a provider, in this case Siemens. Historically, sophisticated E/E systems development software has had its roots in complex and expensive hardware due to the massive amounts of data and the subsequent coordination among design tools. Accessing software with a web browser has become the norm for so many tasks and offers many advantages beyond the fact that you don’t need dedicated end-user hardware for processing and storage. Instead of installing and maintaining software on specialized on-premise IT infrastructure, SaaS offers an identical user experience on any device, anywhere. The SaaS delivery model eliminates in-house IT management, and delivers the software solution as a secure, scalable, and managed service, all operated by Siemens.
