Cloud Services Agreement (OLD)
Illinois
Is a SaaS agreement a license?
I have a SaaS business and am wondering if this can be used as a software license as well. We have a terms of service and privacy policy for our website, but we don't have a standalone SaaS agreement we use with customers. I think we need some sort of software license for enterprise customers, but I'm not sure. Is a SaaS agreement the same as a software license? Can a company like me just operate under Terms of Service?
Octavia P.
This is a great question as many business SaaS providers are confused about SaaS agreements and if they are the same as a software license. There is indeed a difference between a SaaS agreement and a software license. The main difference is that a software license provides a customer the right to tangible products or services that are delivered in some format. In contrast a SaaS does not deliver products or services since the software and platform remain with the provider. As a result, a SaaS promises the customer access and use of the provider’s cloud services remotely via the internet or private network. When SaaS is being provided to enterprises or B2B clients, for their internal business purposes, providers will often use a master SaaS agreement that can be negotiated and signed.

Is agreeing to a ToS the same as signing a contract?
I would like to learn if opt ins to website agreements are the same as signing a contract.
Ema T.
Terms of service can be a binding contract (if your terms of service are not binding they are basically useless). In most cases, if a user had actual or constructive notice that the use of the service is subject to the terms of service and the user has accepted the terms of service online then those terms of service will become a contract just as if the user has physically signed it. If however, after signing electronically the user is also required to sign a physical copy to become a customer the physical copy will usually prevail. Any information provided as an answer to these questions does not constitute legal advice and does not create an attorney-client relationship between the attorney and anyone in relation to any information provided under the Q & A section of this website.

SaaS agreement and customizations?
I recently started a software as a service (SaaS) business and I am looking for legal advice related to SaaS agreements and customizations. I need to understand what is legally required in order to customize my SaaS offering for my customers and ensure that I am in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. I am also looking for advice on how to structure my SaaS agreement to ensure that my customers are adequately protected.
Thomas L.
SaaS agreements are not specifically regulated by law. Thus the principal issue is financial responsibility for outages, loss of data, and failure to meet transaction rate requirements.

SaaS agreement and SLA penalties?
I am the owner of a software development company that is looking to enter into a SaaS Agreement with a client. I want to ensure that both parties are held accountable for any potential service interruptions or other issues that may arise during our agreement, so I am looking for advice on the best type of SLA penalties to include in the agreement.
Thomas L.
The issue is the financial consequences of outages. Third party outages, your outages, and the customer's outages, and who pays (if anything) for each of those.

What is a breach of contract? I have signed an EMR software license.
I am a nurse practitioner and I have signed a contact with a company to use their software (EMR) for my Upcoming clinic. Even though the clinic still awaiting credentialing, i have been paying monthly fees. During recent implementation process, i had a conflict with the salesman and he informed me that i have signed a 5 year contract and i am subject to deal with collection agency. I have stoped the process and not trusting to work with this company. The company states that i have a obligation to pay for 5 years if i cancel the contact or to continue to work with them. What should i do?

Your options in a long term services contract will depend heavily on the contract you signed. Rarely are there no options to end a contract early but it would require reviewing the contract and potentially negotiating with the company.

Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
View Trustpilot ReviewContracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.
View Trustpilot ReviewI never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
View Trustpilot ReviewI got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
