I wouldn’t agree with that. If a group of people wants to collaborate on a
document, especially if this document is a private one, they better use their
own service, so they have control over.
That may be, but it's still not SaaSS.
I just want to ask whether I understand how Abicollab works:
Users run the free Abiword software on their own computers. And rely on
abicollab.net to host the file.
Is Abicollab therefore free, and not sass? Is there any downside to relying
on Abicollab to host the file?
I'm not familiar with the service, but it sounds like it facilitates
collaboration on a single document. Is that correct? If it is, this is a job
that your own computer can't do on its own, and therefore the service is not
SaaSS.
