SaaSational post!

I’ve been wanting to see something like this for a bit that shows the energy efficiency of SaaS. Very good to compare to on-premise.

Thanks Chris.

We looked at it as a ‘damned if you do, damned if you don’t’ proposition, with detractors on both sides & suitably imposing arguments. Our thoughts? Please both sides of the equation; an SaaS for those that see its merits – and – a local Server variant. A complete Solution (tables, queries, files, images, actions,pages, etc) – can be selectively bundled on either the SaaS or local server vsn – and restored in its entirety on the other platform. So instead of insisting that only one school of thought is correct, assume that both are correct.
