A SaaS agreement is between a developer and an end user, whereas a PaaS agreement is between the platform host and developer.
For this reason, PaaS agreements tend to be more detailed and technical. For example, if a developer creates something on the host’s platform, who owns the intellectual property rights in that PaaS relationship? All this needs to be ironed out, clearly and concisely, in the PaaS Agreement.
