Microsoft Azure is the perfect solution for hosting your ERP System. In the past there were stand alone data centers that would let you install your solution. However, they were essentially remote fixed servers. The same as hosting in your office, just at a more secure or robust location.
After spending over $20 Billion Dollars!, Microsoft has built a worldwide infrastructure that allows for a level of reliability, scalability and cost effectiveness that was only a dream just a few years ago.
With Azure we get 24x7x365 worldwide monitoring and support to run your mission critical applications. Using Clients First Business Solutions, a Microsoft Gold Azure Partner, we can manage and host your Epicor ERP, Microsoft Dynamics NAV and AX or SAP Business One solution in the worlds most powerful public cloud.
Advantages include
- No need for a physical environment, power, cooling and heating
- A global infrastructure for security, backup, and management
- The ability for ‘compute on demand’ and scaling capabilities. We can automatically bring up additional application servers during your busiest periods and yet you don’t pay for them when things are quiet.
- We can scale up the performance of your servers as you grow. We can literally ‘add memory and processors’, while your users continue to use the system with no downtime.
- The ability to use a specialized partner, like Clients First, to manage your infrastructure with the same level of connectivity and support as your internal IT resources. Let them focus on your strategic growth visions and let us be the ERP specialists so they don’t have to. Asking your IT department to manage your ERP system is like asking your personal doctor, a general practitioner, to also be a heart surgeon when needed.
The Cloud isn’t the right solution for everyone and don’t let your software vendor box you into a solution built for their profitability, not yours. With Clients First, you can take advantage of the lower cost of ownership of perpetual ERP licensing while having the same or better full cloud offloading of local IT responsibility and with no limitations in what you can do to customize your system for your company’s needs.
If On-Premise is right for you, Clients First’s IT specialists and our EverSafe Business Continuity solution can still provide for you the same level of managed ‘no headache’ services as a cloud solution.
Clients First has spent years perfecting the managing and hosting of ERP systems on public clouds. It’s not as simple as simply subscribing to Azure and installing your software there. We’ve developed a significant amount of IP (Intellectual Property) around the ability to have your ERP system run in a public cloud but still feel as if it’s installed in the room next door. Standalone public clouds like Azure or Amazon S3 will not touch your ERP solution whatsoever. They are only responsible for keeping the operating system up and running. When you host through Clients First’s Azure Hosting, its a ‘one throat to choke’ managed service solution.
We even have solutions for on-premise cellular fail-over should your Internet go down and make the cloud inaccessible at your office.
Whether you are hosting Epicor ERP, Microsoft Dynamics NAV, Microsoft Dynamics AX or SAP Business One, let Clients First Business solutions be your go to partner for ‘lights out’ headache free uptime.
