A Future-Proof, Cost-Effective Software-as-a-Service Model

That Provides Multiple Benefits to Workforce Development Agencies and Partners

Agencies benefit from VOS Sapphire’s SaaS operating model – as it is not only cost effective, but also easy to deploy and maintain. Our SaaS model allows agencies to completely eliminate any reliance on their own technical resources. Geographic Solutions’ SaaS software is offered under annual or multi-year agreements for hosting, maintenance, and upgrades, thus accommodating future technology refreshes, product evolution, and any updates required to comply with changes in applicable laws.

 

In addition to our time-tested SaaS model deployed in our own private cloud environment, Geographic Solutions can provide the same level of performance, reliability, and flexibility with system implementations on a public cloud service as those systems privately-hosted by Geographic Solutions.

 

Geographic Solutions currently supports the SaaS model in over 30 state workforce systems across the country.
