Dragon Argent IT and Technology Solicitors in London taken an in-depth look at a foundational document for tech-based businesses – the SaaS agreement - and share our top tips for its role in the growth journey of a start-up.

What is a SaaS Agreement?

SaaS is the abbreviation for “software as a service” which means that software is being made available to a client in a commercial agreement through a web browser, negating the need for the client to have expensive and bespoke onsite IT infrastructure. With the shift to remote working driven by COVID-19, this is only becoming more prevalent as businesses and workforces become decentralised.

A SaaS agreement in turn is simply the name used for the agreement between a SaaS supplier and a SaaS customer which sets out the terms under which SaaS software may be accessed, including the maintenance, support and service obligations of the provider and duties of each party. SaaS Suppliers will often have standard terms that are offered to all clients.
