Ask HN: Non-SaaS enterprise software business?
I've been researching an idea I've had for a software product. I am still early in the process, but I would like to only offer an on-prem version. As I'm not really interested in running a SaaS business. Also a couple of target customers I have in mind would only want an on-prem solution.
My idea for how to generate income would be by selling licenses. Recurring revenue would come via support contracts and consulting services.
I do know that not having an SaaS product will likely limit the investment I could get. I am ok with this.
Is a Non-SaaS software business still a viable model, or has the world moved on?
