November 17, 2016, LEHI, UT—SirsiDynix is pleased to announce that more than 2,000 customers have chosen SaaS (Software as a Service) to host their data and SirsiDynix software. SirsiDynix SaaS is a service that relieves libraries from the task of maintaining a local server while providing flexible and dependable service along with rigorous security measures. Local IT departments and the global library community in general are increasingly mandating secure and reliable hosting.

SirsiDynix SaaS supports libraries of all types and sizes across the globe, housed in facilities with exacting physical and digital protections. SirsiDynix SaaS libraries enjoy industry-leading safeguards, including NIST SP 800-53 accreditation and ISO 27001 certification. SirsiDynix SaaS also backs libraries with 99.95% uptime and a 24/7/365 support center.

SirsiDynix has seen a tremendous increase in the number of libraries adopting SaaS. Academic, public and special libraries have led the demand for reduced cost and managed data and application services. The SirsiDynix SaaS hosting infrastructure provides state-of-the-art facilities, hardware, networking, monitoring and reliability that far surpasses standard, locally maintained systems.

Reflecting on the benefits of SaaS, SirsiDynix CEO Bill Davison said, “Libraries today have a strong need for consistency, reliability, and security. SirsiDynix offers an industry-leading service that meets these requirements. The rise we’ve seen in SaaS adoptions highlights this intensifying need as well as our long-standing and sound reputation for satisfying these needs with state-of-the-art hosting solutions. We are honored that so many libraries have chosen us to house and protect their data and keep their applications running around the clock. SaaS is a responsibility we do not take lightly. We work hard to earn the trust of the many libraries that depend on us. Our reputation for exceptional service is a promise we make and keep every day.”
