As all financial institutions aspire to move more swiftly, offer products more quickly, and improve operational efficiency, cloud adoption rates are increasing. This was confirmed in research published by the Economist Intelligence Unit late last year (EIU).
FinTechs believes that by using the cloud to power its digital services, it can operate at a 75 percent lower cost than a traditional bank. These advantages are subsequently passed on to the client in the form of lower-cost, technology-driven financial services.
The Covid-19 pandemic has driven cloud adoption even further, as a heightened emphasis on digital channels has given banks with cloud and SaaS-based strategies a competitive advantage.

Why SaaS in Banking?

The pandemic has made virtual business process the new normal. Thus, there is an increased demand for an efficient model to run businesses without any disruptions.

Employees in the banking industry are no exception to this new lifestyle. It is obvious that they also need a smarter way to connect remotely and work seamlessly. That’s where SaaS plays the role of being the Digital Superpower.

Homegrown solutions have complicated architecture and hence time-consuming. It requires dedicated experts to collaborate and support the development and thus is costly. SaaS, on the other hand, comes equipped with developed solutions. Therefore, businesses can just purchase these solutions which are faster to implement and is easy on the pocket.

What makes SaaS so popular and in-demand?

  • Quicker implementation as the software need not be built from scratch
  • Low investment and flexible payments as SaaS uses the subscription model so you can subscribe and pay on a monthly basis
  • No infrastructure required as SaaS is built on a cloud and hence, there is no requirement of managing servers
  • A major advantage of SaaS is that anyone can access their business software anywhere
  • The vendors take care of the regular updates, data backup and synchronization so that you can have a seamless customer experience
  • As SaaS runs on a centralized platform, it is easy to capture data to provide accurate analytics. Also, businesses using SaaS have access to smarter tools which can provide useful insights on business operations
