A network service based on SaaS


Explanation:
The original contains the word 'platform', but platform has a specific meaning related to the machines (computers) themselves (see wikipedia definition below).
Alternatively, one might say, "A network service providing SaaS". Either way, I don't think the katakana 'platform' should appear as is in the translation, as it might be confusing.

Example sentence(s):
  • describes some sort of hardware architecture or software framework (including application frameworks), that allows software to run. Typical platforms include a computer's architecture, operating system, or programming languages and their runtime libraries
