There’s the cloud. And there’s the cloud done right.
Challenge:
An existing on-premise hardware installation was becoming dated and in need of replacement. The company did not want to reinvest in new servers and wanted to move IT infrastructure costs from Cap Ex to Op Ex. What’s more, the migration needed to be done with minimum risk of business disruption.

There’s back-up. And there’s back-up as a service.
Challenge:

Challenge:

Challenge:

The Monthly Souz April Edition
If you are like me or most of us, we love our work, love technology, love software but just don’t really understand how it all works; or let’s say works best for our needs and businesses. I personally am an idiot as it relates to setting up a computer, putting software on my computer and knowing how to secure and maximize results from what I have available to me.
