The benefits of moving your computing to the cloud have become obvious, but perhaps you’re still waiting to make the move for fear of disrupting current processes or losing data. Does this situation sound familiar? You’re not the only one in this position, which is why Racemi recently announced the availability of a new software solution to make the migration easier.
Streamlined Migration
Windstream (News - Alert) Cloud Path, a software as a service (SaaS), is designed to facilitate the on-boarding of customer workloads to the company’s Windstream Hosted Solutions Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). Why does this matter to you? The Racemi Cloud Path was designed for people just like you as it provides a self-service portal to automate the migration of existing Linux and Windows servers to the Windstream IaaS.
As the Windstream IaaS uses the VMware vCloud platform, customers can easily migrate the server workload without disrupting operations or the business. IT managers don’t have to worry about deploying infrastructure or managing the company’s site. No server downtime is assured with the Live Capture and CPU. The process streamlines the very activities that have kept companies from making the move to cloud computing.
Cloud Communications
Beyond the benefits enjoyed when moving the server to the cloud, however, is the increased scalability extended with hosted phone systems. While not all companies immediately leverage this capability when moving to the cloud, why not explore a complete migration when you’re already in the process of making a move? If you’re able to streamline the migration of your servers, why not enjoy the same seamless experience with the phone system?
This is one of the reasons why companies are flocking to hosted phone systems – they can shift the responsibility of the infrastructure and the PBX (News - Alert) to a third party. IT managers no longer have to maintain a phone system that may or may not integrate well with all applications. And while a hosted system does depend on the reliability of the network and the broadband connections to perform, the guaranteed uptime for each is much more dependable than outdated, legacy systems.
When growth or even market decline forces changes within your environment, hosted phone systems are designed to provide you with the flexibility you need to meet the associated challenges. Plus, you can make changes on the fly without interrupting communications and updates are automatically pushed out by the hosting provider.
Why Wait?
If you’re still on the fence, companies like BroadConnect can help you make the transition to the cloud with your phone system, without missing a single call. You select the kind of services you need to match the demand in your current environment and they’ll do the rest. It’s the best of what the hosted phone systems were designed to deliver – why not take advantage of the benefits?
