Question
A company is implementing a SaaS solution with a large user base. SaaS solution licensing is user based, and user management is critical to keep the cost in check. Which of the following is the MOST efficient way to meet this requirement?
Options
- AHave the administrator of the SaaS solution keep track of user activities.
- BHave a nightly upload to the SaaS provider of the current user base based on API call.
- CHave users remove their SaaS accounts when they no longer need the service.
- DHave a weekly user management script maintain the SaaS user base.
Explanation
Having the SaaS administrator actively manage accounts through the platform's built-in console provides real-time control over the user base, which is the most efficient way to govern license costs.
Common mistakes.
- B. A nightly API upload introduces up to 24 hours of delay before changes are reflected, creating a recurring window where unused licenses continue to accrue cost.
- C. Relying on users to voluntarily remove their own accounts is unreliable and predictably results in orphaned licenses that persist well after the user no longer needs the service.
- D. A weekly script introduces up to seven days of lag in license reclamation, which is less efficient than real-time administrator oversight and represents a larger cost exposure window.
