Web Service Platforms
Software-as-a-service (SAS) and cloud technology offerings have come to dominate in the American business landscape. The overarching feature that makes these outsourced services so attractive is that they’re extremely scalable with pay-by-the-minute and by-the-byte pricing that scales along with the service making it possible for small associations to benefit from the same level of enterprise features and security without having to hire a large IT team to oversee day-to-day operations. These services encompass corporate email, single-sign-on (SSO) authentication, file sharing, helpdesk, knowledgebase, instant messaging, telephony, and website services. We’ve also helped nonprofits obtain service grants from providers for thousands of dollars in savings.
