"What's the point?" - this is certainly one of the most important customer questions before a complete or partial switch to the Cloud. Unfortunately, there is no short answer to the question about the benefits. There are many good reasons for switching to the Netstream Cloud from a business perspective.
In our last blog post, we addressed the question of the cost benefits of a complete or partial switch to the Netstream Cloud .
Conclusion: In terms of costs, the Cloud is ahead in the long run!
Now let's take a look at the other benefits for your business and that of your customers if you choose Netstream as your partner for the Cloud .
Flexibility and scalability in any business situation
Imagine the business situation changes and you or your customer need more computer resources because the company is growing. Or a project is discontinued and therefore less IT capacity is needed again. The good news is that both cases can be solved quickly and easily with a complete or partial switch to the Cloud . This is because Netstream Cloud Services make it possible to adapt the IT infrastructure precisely to requirements. This allows you and your customers to remain flexible in any business situation and benefit from the scalability of our Cloud.
Alexander Burkert, Head of Sales & Marketing at Netstream: "The business risk is significantly reduced thanks to the high speed of adaptation. And, an important point for many of our customers: unused IT resources are a thing of the past."
Mobile working around the clock
Your customers' need for flexible working models has never been greater. However, the device-, time- and location-independent work of employees poses challenges for many companies with a classic on-premises infrastructure. Particularly with performance-intensive workstations, for example with graphics or CAD software, the limits of what is feasible are quickly reached.
Netstream 's Cloud services provide your customers with individual solutions and enable flexible working. "Many customers are surprised that the Cloud makes even complex projects mobile and easy to implement." Alexander Burkert is convinced that this opens up new opportunities for flexible working models and paths to digital transformation, even in less digitized industries.
We tailor the Cloud to your customers' needs
Is your customer's hardware not yet obsolete and therefore it seems premature for them to switch to the Cloud ? Alexander Burkert is familiar with this initial question from many customers. "A fundamental advantage of an external data center infrastructure in the Cloud is that we develop a solution tailored to your customers' individual needs and business processes. This means that we consider together whether full or partial outsourcing makes sense and which Cloud services make sense to start with. For many of our customers, expanding their existing infrastructure has proven to be the best option."
The choice often falls on a so-called hybrid Cloud approach. If the Virtual Data Center is used as a supplement to the on-premises infrastructure, your customer can use the 2nd Site to get the best of both worlds for their company. This is because it offers maximum compatibility and seamless integration into the existing VMware Availability Suite.
More protection for customer data, new business areas for you
Is your customers' company data adequately protected against digital blackmail by ransomware? Is their backup solution already redundant for additional data security? And how fast is the data exchange in the event of Recovery ?
For Alexander Burkert, these are important questions from a business perspective, to which Netstream offers a customized answer for its customers with its Cloud services. The advantage? "In the event of a ransomware attack, a complete backup in the 2nd site enables your customers to access their data again within a very short time. This protects your customers' data even better and also opens up new areas of business for you."
Cloud with a win-win factor
Your customers entrust their IT infrastructure to your expertise and value you as a reliable partner for IT solutions. That's why you also need a trusted technology partner who will work with you to deliver the best Cloud for your customers. Netstream believes that only a win-win partnership with your Cloud can deliver the best solutions for your customers.
Alexander Burkert describes the advantages of being a Netstream Cloud partner: "Together with our distribution partner Zibris AG, we support you in expanding your portfolio and tapping into new business areas. You benefit from concentrated technological know-how in a double pack. Not only when it comes to the Cloud, but also when it comes to defining and marketing individual use cases for your customers. Cloud services also enable you to make the transition from project business to recurring revenue - additional security for your business.
As an SME, we speak your language and are also aware of the importance of a transparent pricing model that adapts to individual customer benefits without hidden costs. As our partner, our channel-only model therefore enables you to build a profitable cloud business with your end customers despite market-driven conditions."
This is how Netstream defines a fair partnership with a win-win effect for both partners.
