Benefits of migration to the cloud

Migration from the local version to the cloud has a long list of advantages. Check the benefits of choosing a cloud!

Microsoft recommends cloud solutions paying attention to access to state-of-the-art technologies, increased cost control and better efficiency of the IT structure.

Increased safety and reliability
The business data stored in Microsoft managed centers is highly concerned about security issues. Data in the Azure cloud are subject to a restrictive SLA guaranteeing availability at the level of 99.9%.

Increased scalability and flexibility
Changes in IT infrastructure always require time and costs. The cloud adapts much faster to the speed of enterprise development. Using the cloud eliminates problems related to software maintenance (backups, updates, patches), significantly increasing the productivity of IT staff.

All data in one place
Dynamics 365 allows you to collect data on customer relationship management (CRM) and data from the enterprise resource management system in one integrated environment. Access to data is convenient and intuitive with services such as Office 365 or Power BI.

Customize Dynamics 365 to your individual needs
Thanks to the AppSource platform, you can use business applications developed by Microsoft partners. Thanks to this, the extension of some functionalities is simpler.

Cloud computing is more than just traditional hosting
Thanks to the cloud computing it is possible to use innovative solutions from Microsoft such as artificial intelligence (AI) and predictive analysis.

Advantages of migration to the cloud (SaaS) 
+ Faster to deploy
+ Ability to introduce modifications by a Customer (VS Code)
+ Access to Microsoft Cloud services
+ Subscription – monthly payments (lower initial cost)
+ Hosting included
+ Licenses (SQL, Windows Server) included
+ Dual rights. When choosing cloud and on-premise, you can continue using the traditional installation method. At the same time taking advantage of the benefits that cloud computing offers as part of Microsoft Cloud Services.
+ Fully dependent on Azure in terms of availability and performance
+ Data in the cloud (access, back-up, recovery, security, compliance)
+ Automatic updates within a defined window. For some people automatic updates can be seen as a disadvantage, but it is a convenient and safe solution.

Cons of transition to the cloud
– Slightly less modifiable
– The existing infrastructure will be useless
– The cloud is a less mature solution
