There's a lot of focus of how sandstorm allows you to run web applications easily without having to setup the back-end that they need without SS.

There is an additional edge case, that's of web applications that don't have a back-end at all, ours falls into that category. Our web app is a by-product of two of our commercial products, but we don't actually have user management, storage, etc.

Online we integrate with Google Drive and Dropbox, but you can't create an account with us and store your data with us. Sandstorm allow people to deploy our web app, whereas you can't at all, previously. It saves us months of work creating and maintaining the functionality it provides.
