Software as a Service

Focus on business innovation, and leave the technical complexities to Archer.

When you take advantage of Archer’s Software as a Service (SaaS) offering, you can get up and running quickly without complicating your internal IT. There’s no hardware or software to purchase, maintain and upgrade, so you can keep your staff focused on solving business problems and let Archer handle the technical complexities.

Because our client list includes some of the most highly regulated companies in the world, we are held to the strictest security, performance and scalability standards, and we take great pride in delivering on our clients’ needs. Our service delivery model is characterized by the following standards:

• World-Class Security

  Archer’s data center is SAS 70 certified, demonstrating the effectiveness of our internal controls and data security safeguards. The Archer SmartSuite Framework is also one of only six products that have earned the BITS Tested Mark, a certification that confirms our commitment to meeting stringent requirements for information security and system integrity.

• Multitenant Architecture

  Because the Archer SmartSuite Framework has a multitenant architecture, your applications share a single code base, which makes the upgrade process quick and simple. When you take advantage our SaaS offering, you benefit from timely, no-cost upgrades whenever a new version of the Framework is available. This allows you to use new features immediately to enhance your applications and to avoid upgrade costs sometimes associated with an on-premise or third-party hosted deployment.

• Performance and Scalability

  Archer’s SaaS environment is tailored to ensure optimal performance and to support large-scale client deployments. As your use of the Archer SmartSuite Framework grows, Archer is ready to handle your peak user loads and growing data volumes. We have invested in the latest technologies—from load balancers through our storage-area network—to ensure your users have the best possible Archer experience.

• Resiliency

  Redundant web servers, high performance SAN-based data storage and redundant networking hardware are combined to guarantee your hosted environment is up and available when you need it. Archer continually monitors the health of all client systems and protects your data with a state-of-the-art backup infrastructure.
