Professional business team collaborating with technology

Accounting Firm

Move accounting applications away from a local server

The challenge: A growing accounting practice relied on a physical office server for its core accounting applications. Hardware replacement, backups and remote access were becoming increasingly difficult to manage.

The approach: Use an Managed Cloud Workspace environment to host the accounting applications centrally and provide authorised users with managed cloud desktop access.

Business outcome: Reduced dependence on office hardware and a more flexible environment for staff working from different locations.
SME / ERP

Host an ERP environment without buying a new server

The challenge: An SME needed additional capacity for its ERP and database workloads but did not want another major hardware investment.

The approach: Design an Managed Cloud Workspace environment sized for the application’s CPU, memory, storage, user access and backup requirements.

Business outcome: Infrastructure could be sized around the workload while users accessed the environment through the same managed cloud service.
Remote Workforce

Give employees a consistent business desktop

The challenge: Staff needed to work from home and branch locations while applications and data remained difficult to manage consistently.

The approach: Use the Managed Cloud Workspace service to centralise both the hosted applications and the user desktop environment.

Business outcome: A consistent user environment and a simpler way to manage business applications centrally.
Business Continuity

Reduce the risk of a single office server failure

The challenge: A business depended heavily on one physical server and needed a more resilient infrastructure strategy.

The approach: Move critical workloads and user access into the hosted Managed Cloud Workspace environment and design appropriate backup and recovery procedures.

Business outcome: A stronger foundation for continuity planning and less reliance on a single physical server.
