On-Premises vs. SaaS — A Strategic Comparison
Choosing between on-premises and SaaS deployment models is no longer just a question of infrastructure preference — it’s a question of strategic fit.
Below is a structured comparison outlining how each approach performs across the most critical operational dimensions.
On-Premises Deployment
Requires internal hosting, provisioning, and monitoring of all system components.
Customer is responsible for patching, upgrades, and version control.
Scaling requires hardware expansion, licensing updates, and manual configuration.
Full responsibility for hardening, access logging, and compliance lies with the customer.
Project-based setup with lead times of several weeks.
Capital-intensive (CapEx): infrastructure, personnel, support contracts.
Requires internal enforcement of regulatory standards and documentation.
Dependent on internal release cycles and testing capacity.

SaaS Deployment
Fully managed by NEXIS; no internal infrastructure needed. Hosted securely in Azure EU.
Continuous updates, security patches, and feature releases managed by NEXIS.
Elastic, cloud-native scaling without operational effort.
Built-in Zero Trust architecture, tenant isolation, and regular audits.
Rapid provisioning; environments are ready in hours.
Predictable operational cost (OpEx), no hidden infrastructure or upgrade costs.
Hosted in Azure West Europe; GDPR and EU compliance built into the service model.
Continuous innovation through frequent, non-disruptive updates.
Identity governance solutions operate at the heart of sensitive business operations. That’s why NEXIS 4 SaaS has been architected with a strict focus on data protection, operational resilience, and regulatory compliance — from day one. The platform is designed to meet the security and compliance expectations of enterprise and public-sector environments, with no trade-offs in control or transparency.
Full Feature Parity – Zero Compromise
NEXIS 4 SaaS delivers the exact same identity governance functions as the on-prem deployment, including role-based access control, policy management, recertifications, and risk analytics — with no limitations.
Built for Security & Compliance from Day One
The platform is hosted in Azure West Europe and follows a Zero Trust architecture with encrypted data at rest and in transit, tenant isolation, and continuous monitoring. Regular audits and SLAs ensure full enterprise-grade security and reliability.
Fast, Low-Effort Rollouts
Deployment requires no hardware, no provisioning, and no custom infrastructure. Your environment is provisioned quickly, allowing IAM initiatives to launch in days rather than months.
Operational Relief, Strategic Focus
No patching, no system monitoring, no downtime planning. Your internal teams stay focused on strategy — while the platform remains continuously updated, secured, and maintained by NEXIS experts.
Future-Proof Governance
Continuous feature delivery means your governance framework evolves with changing regulations, business structures, and access risks — without disruptive upgrade projects.
