In the previous article, we talked about what is SaaS. In this section, I will talk about Micro SaaS. SaaS, in short, is a Software as a Service, that is, a subscription service. But you can get a more detailed version by reading the previous article.
Micro SaaS
Micro SaaS is essentially tiny SaaS. Payment systems are highly complex in big SaaS. It can also contain many details. On the other hand, Micro SaaS doesn’t need to be so big. When there is a tool that can solve at least 1 feature properly, it is a micro model where you can make payments to it at low fees. It’s called “micro”. If you think more simply, it is already clear from the name.
What is the Difference Between SaaS and Micro SaaS?
SaaSes are big and work with all the details. However, Micro SaaSes are small and do not need that much detail. SaaSes have big teams, but Micro SaaSes mostly have 1 founder and no one else. It can continue its life alone. There are many examples of this. In addition, SaaS payment systems are not simple. However, payment systems of Micro SaaS can be made/used with systems such as Gumroad, and LemonSqueezy.
With SaaS, the customer who sees a mistake is less understanding, while with Micro SaaS there is more understanding. Because you are a small business, you can be respected more than others. This makes you feel happy. Especially when you make your own Micro SaaS.
