Whether your primary concern is business continuity, disaster recovery, reducing data storage costs, or protecting against downtime, SCI has access to a myriad of solution providers that can help improve your business immediately and establish a platform that can grow at the same pace as your business. Cloud infrastructure scales on demand to support fluctuating workloads.
Things to consider when exploring your options:
Identify your business needs – scalability, importance of accessibility, features needed, application integration, compatibility with other equipment and devices, futureproofing, tolerance for downtime, security requirements.
Consider the cost of on-premise vs hosted/cloud – if you have the investment capital and technical resources necessary to manage and support on-premise hardware, or have highly sensitive data where control is mandated, some systems will remain onsite. It pays to compare cloud-based services that have predictable costs and don’t require a capital investment or internal support staff.
Identify maintenance needs – 24/7 support, improved security, detection of vulnerabilities and threats, fixing issues and bugs before the business is even aware of the problem, regular and encrypted backups plus fast recovery, immediate upgrades and updates.
We also have providers that can offer cybersecurity, compliance & risk assessments, vulnerability tests, contact center technology, data center & colocation opportunities, and backup with DRaaS. The level of service, security, and modernization offered by cloud providers is far more advanced than companies can afford to build for themselves. Ask us how to take advantage of these benefits and identify just the right solutions to support your business to save you money and mitigate risk.
