On-Demand Software
Description
On-demand software enables users to access tools that are hosted and maintained online.
Uses and Potential Benefits
On-demand access is lessening the need for in-house technical staff and making a wider array of tools accessible and affordable for organizers. Example: a foundation might put all its grantee information on salesforce.com, reducing the cost of maintaining an in-house grants management system.
