The simplest example of SaaS is Google Docs, a free document management service. No media, drivers, or installations. Create a Google account, follow the link and work with texts, tables and presentations right in your browser. Moreover, other colleagues can work in documents at the same time as you. Having left on a business trip, you can log into your account from any device and continue to print the desired document.
