How to scale SaaS for businesses with apprenticeships

Software as a Service, also known as SaaS, is one of the main Cloud Computing services for businesses, employees, and clients. Software services include but are not limited to Sales management, customer relationship management, financial management and human resource management. They save businesses money and time and give them access to resources that will help them to grow.

In the past 7 years the SaaS industry has increased in size by approximately 500% and SaaS is said to be the most important tech in business success.[1] So, scaling SaaS for businesses is crucial.

What does ‘scaling SaaS for businesses’ mean?

Scaling a business means enabling support and growth for the business. Enabling this requires staff, technology, planning, processes, funding, and partners.

SaaS provides technology to give businesses support and growth. So, scaling SaaS for businesses means putting fundamentals in place to introduce and grow the technology and ensure the technology is accessible on the cloud.

Software engineering skills

Software engineering skills will support and grow technology.

These skills can be found in software development companies developing services and products for the cloud and other businesses.

Other businesses are any business that have an in-house software management team or outsource from software development companies for their software engineering skills.

In-house software management

In-house software management means having software engineers that are directly employed by the business.

For in-house software management to be most effective, they must have staff that are able to operate at every stage of the software development lifecycle. This way systems and products can be successfully planned and maintained.

Outsourcing for software management

Businesses can outsource to access software engineering skills at every stage of the software lifecycle.

Outsourcing from software development companies is a way for businesses to scale their software management and grow their business.

The scale SaaS for businesses with apprenticeships model

Software engineering apprenticeships introduce and grow skills to businesses with in-house software management and software development businesses.

Businesses outsourcing for in-house software management can create a partnership with software development businesses to access their software engineering expertise.

As a result, services and applications on the Cloud become more innovative and accessible and so do the businesses associated.

We provide 7 software engineering apprenticeships that introduce and grow software engineering skills for every stage of the software development lifecycle, to save businesses money and time and give them access to the resources they need to grow. At the same time, we will address the digital skills gap by working together.
