A SaaS Directory with a twist

After months of work we have finally launched our new free SaaS Directory http://www.saaslounge.com. SaaS means Software as a Service, which is a techie way of saying software delivered via a web browser that does not require any installation. Google Docs is a popular example of a SaaS application and offers a number of benefits over it’s non-SaaS competitor Microsoft Word.

This a directory with a twist, a few twists actually. SaaS Lounge offers

A unique SaaSMetric appraisal system that allows SaaS customers to compare SaaS applications based on SaaS best practices
A forum for SaaS related conversations
SaaS Guides for those new to SaaS
SaaS related news which will be constantly updated

The website is brand new and so we expect to make plenty of improvements to the site over the coming months. In the meantime, why not add your SaaS application to the directory. It’ll take five minutes and better still it’s free!

The majority of forums have user terms and conditions which outline the guidelines forum users should adopt but what about your moderators? Just like users they require guidelines and rules to ensure that the forums are moderated fairly and consistently.

To help forum administrators we’ve written a free forum rules and moderators handbook guide.

You’re free to take it, adapt, pass it on and use it however you wish. All we ask is that you link back to us if you do use the document.

If you make any improvements to the guide please send them back and we’ll update our version.
