Best Practices in Building a SaaS Product
1.
© Copyright 2014
Valuehire, All Rights Reserved. by Dhruv Gupta BEST PRACTICES IN BUILDING A SAAS PRODUCT
2.
Building any
software product is challenging as one has to consider everything from design to how customers will be charged for using the product. The market for SaaS products is growing which means competition is increasing (including that from traditional desktop or client-server products which continue to exist and sell). Customers can switch from one SaaS product to another at any time, so innovation and ease of use are important in order to retain customers. INTRODUCTION © Copyright 2014 Valuehire, All Rights Reserved.
3.
UI (user
interface) of any product is key. Pick the styles, templates, and colors that will define the look and feel. Define the screen resolution and choose which browser versions you will support. Keep UX (user experience) and Usability in mind. Interactions from screens and tabs have to be intuitive as SaaS products need to be “self service”. Involve your customers during the design process. BEST PRACTICE #1 – DESIGN © Copyright 2014 Valuehire, All Rights Reserved.
4.
Keep the
list of ideas from product team and customer feedback separate. Prioritize above list in a simple tracking tool. Use something like „Must Do‟, „Nice to Do‟, and „Can do Later‟. Always discuss with your development team before committing any feature to your customer, and get estimates in advance. Do impact analysis before implementing any feature. BEST PRACTICE #2 – FEATURES © Copyright 2014 Valuehire, All Rights Reserved.
5.
Pick your
programming languages – PHP, Ruby, Python, or Java, and any relevant frameworks (e.g. Zend). Decide whether your product will have or interact with APIs in future and promote code reuse. This can influence technical design. Choose your cloud provider carefully – most companies start off with Amazon AWS, Rackspace, or Azure. Set up development, staging, and production servers, and SVN to manage the code. BEST PRACTICE #3 – TECHNOLOGY © Copyright 2014 Valuehire, All Rights Reserved.
6.
SaaS products
are delivered using the cloud. Just because the cloud is scalable, doesn‟t mean your application is. Architect your application and cloud instances to cater to customers from various geographies (if your market is global). You can scale vertically (by adding more resources to existing instances) or horizontally (by adding more instances). BEST PRACTICE #4 – SCALABILITY © Copyright 2014 Valuehire, All Rights Reserved.
7.
Data should
always be encrypted. Use SSL for login (at a minimum). Pick trusted and known cloud providers and understand what security measures are taken at their data centers. Enable server monitoring and logs for everything. User 3rd party security services like Cloudflare. Your SaaS application should have an auto logout feature. BEST PRACTICE #5 – SECURITY © Copyright 2014 Valuehire, All Rights Reserved.
8.
Speed of
access to your SaaS application is Internet dependent, so pick your server location(s) wisely. Optimize your instance configurations as you get more users. Test your application on different browsers and versions. Do regular performance and load testing. Look at crowd sourced testing as an option. BEST PRACTICE #6 – PERFORMANCE © Copyright 2014 Valuehire, All Rights Reserved.
9.
Customers pay
a subscription fee (usually monthly) and hence invoicing needs to be built-in. Build a way to enable, disable, and monitor customer accounts. There should be options for different plans (e.g. bronze, silver, gold) – and ability to upgrade / downgrade them. BEST PRACTICE #7 – BILLING © Copyright 2014 Valuehire, All Rights Reserved.
10.
Follow Project
Management principles to ensure that the product you build is delivered on time, within budget, and with quality – with the optimal use of resources. Having a Product Management mindset is also key, and every team member should understand that building a product is very different from working on projects. Always be Testing. If your customers find too many bugs or issues, then there is a higher chance of them cancelling or not renewing their subscriptions.
