Why Workday– SaaS Value
What is SaaS?
Software as a service (SaaS), sometimes referred to as ‘cloud
technology’ is:
 Software that is deployed over the internet and/or run
behind a firewall on a local area network or personal
computer;
 A provider of licenses to an application, through a
subscription or a "pay-as-you-go" model.
