On November 9th, the 2022 World Internet Conference Wuzhen Summit opened. Zhou Hongyi, the founder of 360, delivered a sub-forum speech on the theme of “Building a SaaS Ecosystem and Helping Digital Common Wealth”, and announced that the 360 Group officially launched a SaaS store for small, medium and micro enterprises and entities. The industry provides one-stop digital transformation services to fill the market gap.
Zhou Hongyi said that in the era of digital civilization, digitalization has become the main theme of the future development of the country and all walks of life. Small and medium-sized enterprises are in urgent need of digitalization, but they are facing the five dilemmas of “no money, no one, no technology, no effect, and no guarantee”. In the past, the path for large enterprises to achieve digitalization was “unreachable” for small enterprises, and there was a lack of effective market supply.
Zhou Hongyi believes that SaaS (software as a service) is the “killer” for small and medium-sized enterprises to achieve digitalization. It has five advantages such as low delivery threshold, low configuration requirements, low technical difficulty, low operation difficulty, and low use cost. “Check-in”-style digital services.
It is understood that 360 Group has previously tested the SaaS strategy and launched a new generation of digital security cloud service “360 Enterprise Security Cloud”, which converts national-level security capabilities into SaaS and provides enterprise-level users with hardware, software, data, assets, Internet access, etc. One-stop security and management services. The service is free to open basic functions for small, medium and micro enterprises, and nearly one million small, medium and micro enterprises have benefited within half a year.
360 is the world’s first cloud-native security company. Zhou Hongyi said on the forum, “The essence of free antivirus is SaaS service. It can be said that we have been doing SaaS for 20 years.” In the past, free antivirus was used to ensure basic security for ordinary people, which directly led to a drop in the incidence of virus Trojans on Chinese netizens’ computers by two orders of magnitude compared with the world. Now 360 will do “free security in the new era”, so that small, medium and micro enterprises can generally obtain basic security guarantees.
Zhou Hongyi announced in his speech in Wuzhen that 360 has officially launched a SaaS store to help transform the real economy and achieve “digital common prosperity”. He believes, “SaaS is very similar to APP. A SaaS solves a specific need. If there is a SaaS store like the APP Store, then small and medium-sized enterprises can choose different services according to their needs, just like going to a supermarket to shop.”
At present, 360 has transformed from a single service provider to a SaaS ecological platform builder. On the one hand, it reduces service costs for upstream SaaS vendors, and on the other hand, it helps downstream small, medium and micro enterprises reduce costs and increase efficiency. Zhou Hongyi said that with the acceleration of digital transformation in all walks of life, the degree of digital construction of small, medium and micro enterprises will have a more significant impact on the quality of my country’s overall digital economy. In the future, 360 will continue to focus on the strategy of “going to the mountains and going to the sea to help small and micro enterprises” to serve China’s digital strategy.
