Design, build and launch SaaS and cloud-native solutions on AWS
The software-as-a-service (SaaS) delivery model has become appealing to organisations because of its wide range of benefits. This includes improved time-to-market, increased agility, lower cost of application development, expansion of addressable market and operational efficiency.
Firemind works with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to help SaaS providers build new SaaS solutions, migrate existing applications to a SaaS-based delivery model, or optimise and enhance their existing SaaS solutions on AWS. We also apply our SaaS expertise to Independent Software Vendors (ISVs).

Hear from the team

Visit our article where we explore how SaaS provides an intriguing alternative to standard software installation in the business environment (known as the traditional model).
