Welcome to the SaaS Licensing Channel

Enterprise organizations are rapidly discovering the flexibility of cloud-based applications. For new market entrants and established software vendors alike, SaaS presents a new opportunity to give customers what they want—while ensuring recurring revenue streams and exploring new markets. While delivering software as a service opens many doors for software vendors, it also presents a new set of operational challenges and reintroduces all of the packaging, control, and business intelligence obstacles of the software monetization lifecycle that the traditional software industry has faced for decades. Welcome to the SaaS Licensing Channel, sponsored by SafeNet, a provider of software monetization solutions.

The SaaS Licensing Channel will explore the difficulties associated with cloud service packaging as well as usage control, tracking and reporting. Check back at the SaaS Licensing Channel often for a variety of breaking news, case studies and white papers.
