Software as a Service:  Applications on Demand

The traditional model for software use has been to simply purchase a specific software application, deploy it on the company’s own servers and maintain it through license fees.  The internet makes it possible to simply ‘rent’ an application for only the time needed, without the requirement to maintain it. Because these applications are web-enabled, anyone in the world with a web connection can access and use them.  This on-demand application access and use is referred to as ‘software as a service’, or SaaS, and it is the fastest growing method for software use in the IT market today. 

Petris offers the energy industry’s most comprehensive SaaS service for renting oil and gas-related software.  PetrisWINDS Now! is a vendor-neutral, on-demand platform which manages the rental of SaaS-enabled applications over the Internet. You get all the software’s benefits without the cost of buying, installing, testing and supporting it yourself.

By adding the PetrisWINDS Enterprise package, PetrisWINDS Now! becomes a powerful integration, data and application management system. The combination creates a “solutions-on-demand” resource for solving individual, departmental or company-wide problems.

PetrisWINDS Now! offers applications that address the oil and gas industry, from Geophysics and Petrophysics, to Facilities Engineering, Marketing, News Gathering, Refining and Information Services.

PetrisWINDS Now! is also flexible. By adding a single PetrisWINDS Now! contract in your organization, you gain immediate access to specialized software, reduce capital expenditures and extend the life of existing hardware.

What’s more, PetrisWINDS Now! allows you to make critical applications available to locations away from the office. Add new software and users as your business grows, without the expense of supporting the software in-house.
