Software as a service (SaaS) is the means by which software is delivered to you, the client. Gone are the days of physical servers sitting on site with all the limitations and risks this option presents, particularly at a time when stay at home orders are largely still in place. SaaS models give enterprises scalable access to software that is always up to date and secure, and supports centralised management for large and distributed workforces.

SaaS is software that is delivered and managed remotely by a provider, in this case, EHSCloud.

EHSCloud is a fully configurable Environment, Health and Safety management system delivered via SaaS. Why SaaS, and how does this help me?

Cost: On premise servers and customised solutions result in large initial capital costs. With EHSCloud, there is no upfront capital expenditure. The pay per user subscription cost includes everything needed and there are no variable monthly hidden costs.

Mobility: The work from home culture has really been accelerated with the Covid-19 outbreak. It is vitally important that the software that assists in keeping your business operational wherever you or your staff are. SaaS is perfectly positioned for this distributed and remote working. As long as you have an internet connection, you are able to access your software. EHSCloud is device agnostic.

Maintenance, updates & upgrades: EHSCloud takes care of all maintenance and software upgrades. The cost of all of this is included in your subscription.

Compliance: This is the responsibility of EHSCloud. Dependant on geographic location, EHSCloud will ensure that all compliance regulations (data protection & privacy) are up to speed.

Quick to deploy: Being a configurable out the box product, a client can be up and running in days.

The future of EHS based SaaS is exciting. With the Covid-19 outbreak the push towards social distancing, the ability to work remotely, from multiple devices has never been more necessary in the workplace. Not only does EHSCloud’s SaaS solution cater for this, but it is also easily scalable, secure and device agnostic. The business environment is dynamic and ever evolving, your software should be doing the same.
