Where is the future development of the catering SaaS system?

With the rapid development of the domestic catering market, the catering SaaS software is also rising, and it is recognized by catering enterprises. The market potential of catering system software can be described as limitless. However, with the development of SaaS, there has been a dilemma in which software companies have earned a lot of money, and offline service providers have become more and more difficult to do.

At present, domestic SaaS services are mainly used in the catering industry. Many well-known manufacturers, such as zero-interconnect, and many other manufacturers' products can have very specific and deep understanding of the operation methods and pain points of the catering industry, and can solve these problems by using software.

What is SaaS?

Different from the traditional direct purchase software, SaaS is a software operator that deploys the software to its own cloud. Users only need to rent the cloud service provided by the software operator to directly manage the business, no need to spend big price to buy directly. software. It can be said that the SaaS service model brings users a lighter service and a more favorable price.

Current pain points

However, in the process of contact with SaaS service operators recently, Xiaobian found the problem, that is, there are many problems in the service operators such as narrow profit margin and difficulty in survival. Service providers often have their own positioning problems when they represent products. In essence, service providers are actually sales people, but unlike traditional software sales, SaaS manufacturers are responsible for maintenance and services, and service providers will no longer make profits or very little profits from services. Therefore, many service providers feel that there is no profit in SaaS. As a result, SaaS manufacturers have been selling well, but service providers are still complaining about the situation, which has led to the disappearance of a large number of service providers.

Where is the future path?

SaaS currently plays a very important role in the catering industry, and it still has an infinite market size in the future, but it cannot completely replace traditional software. On the one hand, it is because of the difference in profit model, which leads to the loss of a large number of agents; on the other hand, because the services provided by SaaS are still difficult to cover all aspects of the catering and other industries, most of them are mainly invoicing management. Therefore, the SaaS industry wants to develop better, not only need to invest more energy to develop more software needs, but also need more space for service providers to make them profitable to sell and promote SaaS. software. As a new software service model, SaaS will have a broader future market in the future.
