Cloud computing based services:
Lower technological acquisition and update costs (TCO - Total Cost Owner)
Software as a Service (SaaS) based technological acquisition:
- S4DS Operations Suite is designed as four independent modules with variable costs based on the volume of order placed by the company. A company only acquires the modules it needs to operate more effectively.
- The cost of the S4DS Operations Suite technology investment oscillates between 1.5%-3% of the total annual sales of a company.
  Hence acquiring the S4DS SaaS model is more competitive and economical than investing in customized software + licenses + hardware + communication + maintenance + support. In the direct sales industry, the cost usually outweighs the benefit of such costly technology investments.
