This shift in technology is much like the banks many years ago. It used to make sense to keep your savings under your mattress. Today, we all realized the benefit of moving our savings to a bank. In essence, we are sourcing our day to day management of our savings to the bank. We are in control of our savings, but we don't need to build our own vault to store it. SaaS is very much the same. You still control your data, but you don't need to become an IT person to manage it.
What it means to you is you can now leverage enterprise IT without the major expense.
Other benefits such as access to your systems from anywhere in the world, knowing your data is securely replicated on multiple servers, throughout the world.
