So I'm not an IT professional but my experience would agree with this definition. I often wrestle with the definition of SaaS and cloud because of the service I market http://ocrservicebureau.com we are a hybrid SaaS Service Bureau offering and have to use the buzzwords even though there are misconceptions about the definitions.
