I completely disagree with the article. There are innumerable small businesses that do not and never will have their own cloud setup, no matter how easy you make it.
SaaS is exactly what they need because if they can access the Internet then they can use the service. This is simple to understand and use. Your local plumber, baker and candlestick maker have no idea what the cloud is, let alone open source software.
- dennybritz 11y agoNo disagreement here, but depending on which type of SaaS service you are talking about your local bakers and plumbers make up a very small number of the users (or revenue). They don't use Analytics, expensive CRMs, payroll services, etc. Services like these make most of their money from larger corporations or tech companies who are more likely to move away from the SaaS cloud. But you're totally right about services where the majority of revenue comes from local SMBs.
