The initial stage of the adoption process for the implementation of cloud computing technology in an institution is evaluating to select the cloud provider. This research will discuss the comparison of the performance of Software as a Service (SaaS) owned by each cloud provider. In this research, cloud providers were selected based on the previous research about the ready-to-use SaaS services for users, namely Microsoft Office 365 and Google Apps. Testing the comparison of SaaS performance is needed to provide solutions to institutions in determining the use of SaaS applications. The benchmarking method is used to find the performance comparison between SaaS application. This research conducted with four main phases; they are choosing a cloud provider and SaaS, selecting attributes for testing SaaS performance, selecting a SaaS performance testing scenario, and performing performance testing based on the testing scenario. From the results, we infer that Gmail, Google Drive, and Google has responsive web page performance and can be loaded correctly on devices with limited memory.
