Industry Jargon


It’s only appropriate to follow a post about complicated tech messages with one about SaaS-related jargon. After reading this top ten post by James Maguire, I couldn’t help myself. Maguire identified some of the more pressing keywords (including platform) that frequently causes SaaS-newbies to scratch their heads in agony, so I applaud his effort to demystify the messages and words surrounding SaaS.

One buzzword I would add to Maguire’s list is ecosystem. Today, its difficult to avoid the word ecosystem when dealing with SaaS, and more so with platforms. Does anyone have any favorite SaaS buzzwords they think should be added? If there are enough, maybe SaaSBlogs could start a glossary.
