Top 6 reasons for working with us

Retain existing customers

Modern trends go against customers retaining their own servers, instead favouring the Op-Ex benefits of the Cloud, along with the performance and security benefits it offers. We can deliver that by Cloudifying your software, problem solved!

Save Years of Development time

We know how much work is involved in re-writing your software. What if you could avoid having to make a full SaaS/web based version? What’s more, perhaps SaaS doesn’t really suit your product? We can empower you to better use your resources.

Let your software sparkle

A happy bi-product of cloudifying your software is the potential to show it in its best light. Working with your engineers, we fine tune our platform, ensuring that customers can see it run like never before, like a finely crafted Swiss watch.

Streamline onboarding and support

We’re all about systemising as a much as we can. This in turn ensures that customer onboarding (new and existing), is streamlined to the maximum. Fewer headaches for your team and customers alike, all the while helping your bottom line.

Improve development cycles and testing

In addition to customer (production) based servers and systems, we’re able to offer your team the tools and environments they need to safely develop and test. Building software enhancements with new levels of agility, speed and satisfaction.

Integration to remote devices and software

One of the key reasons fully SaaS based software isn’t always achievable is due to the integrations required by your software. Our solutions are completely sympathetic to such integrations, from scanners, email integration and remote SQL databases.

FAQs

What is the key technology that you use to “Cloudify” customer services?
The truth is that we don’t settle on any particular technology, as every software title has its nuances, especially in the ways it interacts with the customer and the customer’s IT environment.
That said we are fortunate whereby we have a few oven-ready technologies, such as Citrix, Microsoft RDS, high-frequency servers and clever VPN technologies, to name but a few. However our ethos is more about finding the correct solution over the convenient one, therefore we’ve been known to hunt down new technologies, to best suit our software partner.
If we wanted to offer your software platform as a white-label product, is this achievable and if so, how?
This is absolutely achievable and we already offer this to our software partners. Effectively, you would become a reseller partner of ours which in turn offers (sells) our Cloud based service to your customers.
We would never come into direct contact with your customers and they would remain your customers throughout, you set the terms and the pricing.
A significant bonus however, is that we can white label our technical and service documentation as your own, to pass on to your customers for marketing and sales material.
How secure is the Cloud solution that we would be offering to our customers?
The short answer is very! But the longer answer is that all of our Cloud platform services adhere to our standard security principles, such as traversing industry leading firewalls (SonicWALL).
Furthermore, we offer features such as the ability to assign each customer their own VLAN (virtual LAN) which fully isolates neighboring tenant customers from each other.
Internet security aside, we apply all Cloud platform services to our comprehensive backup infrastructure which consists of hourly backups, offsite backups and offline backups.
Put simply, we are prolific when it comes to protecting customer data.
Put simply, when it comes to protecting customer data, we strive to be the very best.
