Hi Debbie

Online software refers to software you access via the internet. This is often called hosted software/ hosted applications or software as a service (SAAS)

The benefit of a hosted application is that you don't have to worry about maintaining it yourself. The hosting provider manages all of the security and product updates, and you get the latest version every time you log in. You can also access the application from any internet access point so you're not tied to a particular PC.

Hope this helps answer your test question!
