SaaS: Software with a subscription model, that’s it.

All these “market experts” and PR people extolling the virtues of the radical idea of paying people for a service remind me of all these dumb cryptocurrency bitcoin shills.

That's not it. Adobe CC is an example of simply software with a subscription model. Or lots of other perpetual software that is complex and requires a support subscription.

SaaS is a lot different than that. SaaS runs on someone else's computer, with all the plusses and minuses that brings.
