Software as a Service (SaaS)

Software as a service (or SaaS) is a way of delivering applications over the Internet—as a service. Instead of installing and maintaining software, you simply access it via the Internet, freeing yourself from complex software and hardware management.  SaaS applications are sometimes called Web-based software, on-demand software, or hosted software. Whatever the name, SaaS applications run on a SaaS provider’s servers. The provider manages access to the application, including security, availability, and performance. 

SaaS: The Payoff

SaaS customers have no hardware or software to buy, install, maintain, or update. Access to applications is easy: You just need an Internet connection.
 

SaaS: Characteristics

A good way to understand the SaaS model is by thinking of a bank, which protects the privacy of each customer while providing service that is reliable and secure—on a massive scale. A bank’s customers all use the same financial systems and technology without worrying about anyone accessing their personal information without authorization.

QuikEyes Cloud Experience

Whereas many EHR systems are just now moving to a SaaS, Web-based or "Cloud" products, QuikEyes has been completely web-based since 2008.  QuikEyes was the first web-based eyecare EHR product to receive Complete Ambulatory Certification (from Drummond Group) in the Eyecare EHR space.

Unlike othe EHR providers who will eventually have to move their customers from old Client-Server Products to newer Cloud-Based Products, at the expense of the customer, QuikEyes is already there.
