Now, I’m the first to admit that they make some great applications for image management and processing. One of the major companies leading this push into subscription-based applications is Adobe. Who wouldn’t want a monthly semi-guaranteed income? However, is this model really the best for the consumer? I’m talking about those application which you used to purchase once, install on your system, and use until you either decided to upgrade them yourself, or operating system changes made them unusable. However, there has been a move in recent years to move regular desktop-based applications into the SAAS world. Traditionally, this has been the realm of SAAS, or subscription-based services. When data must be collected into a central repository-and that data needs to be accessed from anywhere-then the obvious solution is a cloud-based system. There is, of course, room – and even a necessity – for software as a service (SAAS).
