A: I hope I understand your very short question correctly: you want to build a service on top of NoCode-X and offer it to your users with a monthly subscription or payment based on their usage?

This is absolutely possible with NoCode-X.

TWO ARCHITECTURES TO CHOOSE FROM:

MONOLITHIC APPLICATION:
In this setup, all users are segmented through group memberships linked to specific customer organizations. This provides a coarse-grained link to the customer organization. Within your service, you can implement fine-grained roles based on the functionality and user types you want to offer. This approach is ideal for most use cases and allows you to manage multiple customers within a single application while maintaining clear segmentation.

STRONG SEGREGATION WITH SEPARATE LICENSES:
If you need stronger segregation between customer organizations, you can opt for a setup where each customer organization receives its own NoCode-X license, and you deploy the application separately for each subscription. This approach is recommended for larger services, such as full-fledged ERP systems, where strict data isolation is required. The downside is that you’ll need a separate license per organization, but it provides added resilience with dedicated encryption keys per application.

The first option is generally sufficient for most SaaS use cases, while the second option is better suited for scenarios requiring strict data processing and segmentation.

ROBUST FEATURES FOR YOUR SAAS:
NoCode-X offers everything you need to build a scalable and secure SaaS platform. From automation and integration to data security, authentication (including Single Sign-On for entities with an OAuth2.0 provider), and authorization (both coarse- and fine-grained), the platform is designed to handle complex requirements. Additional features like augmented auditability, data classification, and robust scalability ensure that your service is resilient and ready to meet the needs of your business owners and customers.

HOW TO IMPLEMENT PAYMENTS:
For invoicing and payment management, I recommend using the Stripe plugin (with your own Stripe account). This allows you to integrate flexible billing models, including monthly subscriptions or usage-based pricing, directly into your application. You can design your cost model as granularly as you need, ensuring it aligns with the services you want to offer your customers.

ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS:

Embed the organizational level in your data design to support multi-tenancy.
Plan your organization and user enrollments carefully to ensure smooth onboarding and management.
Use NoCode-X’s flexibility to customize roles, permissions, and billing workflows to fit your SaaS model.
So, feel free to launch your SaaS and aim high! NoCode-X provides the tools and flexibility to make it happen.

If I misunderstood your use case or if you have additional requirements, please let us know, and we’ll be happy to explore the best solution for you with NoCode-X.
