Your Infrastructure, Your Choice

SaaS simplicity or self-hosted sovereignty - you decide

The enterprise software industry is moving toward forced SaaS models. What vendors position as "cloud transformation" often means less control, higher long-term costs, and critical dependencies on foreign currency payments and continuous connectivity.

Predictiv takes a different approach. Full SaaS convenience when you want it. Complete self-hosting capability when you need it. Your business requirements determine your deployment model - not our commercial preferences.

Fully Managed SaaS

For organisations wanting simplicity, our managed service handles everything: infrastructure, security updates, backups, monitoring, and support. You focus on your business; we focus on keeping Predictiv running perfectly.

Predictable monthly costs, no capital expenditure, automatic updates, and 99.9% uptime SLAs. Our SaaS offering matches the convenience of any global vendor - with local presence and understanding that international providers cannot replicate.

Data residency in your jurisdiction. Support in your timezone. Pricing in your currency.

Self-Hosted: Your Infrastructure, Your Control

Deploy Predictiv on infrastructure you control. This could be your own data centre, a regional cloud provider, or any global hyperscaler. The same enterprise functionality, with complete data sovereignty.

Self-hosting isn't second-class status - it's a fully supported deployment model. You receive the same software, documentation, and support as SaaS customers. The only difference is who manages the infrastructure.

For organisations with specific compliance requirements, security policies, or strategic infrastructure investments, self-hosting provides the control that mandatory SaaS models cannot offer.

Hybrid Flexibility

Some organisations need both. Development and testing in our managed cloud. Production on local infrastructure. Disaster recovery spanning multiple environments. Predictiv supports these hybrid models without artificial barriers.

Migration between deployment models happens when your needs change, not when a vendor decides to deprecate on-premise support. Your data remains portable. Your investment remains protected.

No Forced Migration

Your deployment model is your choice, today and tomorrow. We will never deprecate self-hosting to push you toward higher-margin SaaS contracts.

Currency Risk Mitigation

Self-hosted deployments eliminate foreign currency exposure for operational software costs. In volatile economic environments, this isn't just preference - it's prudent risk management.

Business Continuity Assurance

When your ERP runs on your infrastructure, service continuity depends on your organisation's capabilities, not an overseas vendor's payment processing or service policies.

Regulatory Compliance

Data sovereignty requirements, industry regulations, and government policies increasingly mandate local data storage. Self-hosting ensures compliance without complex workarounds.

Why Predictiv

The Industry Trend: Forced SaaS Migration

The pattern is familiar. Microsoft Dynamics moved from on-premise GP and NAV to encouraging Dynamics 365, to now mandating cloud for new customers. Salesforce has always been cloud-only. SAP pushes aggressively toward RISE. Oracle deprecated on-premise NetSuite. The trend serves vendor interests - recurring revenue, reduced support complexity, platform control. It doesn't always serve customer interests.

The Reality for Markets in Africa

For businesses operating in dynamic economies, mandatory SaaS creates real risks. When your ERP subscription requires USD or EUR payments during currency volatility, cash flow becomes hostage to exchange rates. When international payment processing fails, service termination follows - regardless of your local business health. These aren't theoretical concerns. They're operational realities that global vendors rarely acknowledge.

One Size Does Not Fit All

Dynamic markets, niche industries, and growing businesses have requirements that standardised global SaaS cannot address. Customisation depth, integration flexibility, performance optimisation for local infrastructure, offline capability - these needs matter. Predictiv's architecture accommodates them. Forced-SaaS alternatives cannot.

Investment Protection

Enterprise software represents significant organisational investment - not just licensing, but implementation, training, process redesign, and institutional knowledge. Deployment flexibility protects this investment against vendor strategy changes, geopolitical disruptions, and regulatory shifts.
