Crown’s Fully Managed Cloud Migration
Businesses of all sizes and industries are recognising the value of migrating their workforce management (WFM) systems to the cloud. Crown is your ideal partner for migration, with a fully managed cloud service based on the world-leading Microsoft Azure platform and a team of certified experts to guide you every step of the way.
Why embrace the cloud for workforce management?
Cloud migration isn't just a technological shift—it's a strategic move towards future-ready operations. With the array of benefits it brings, cloud migration positions businesses to navigate the constantly-evolving world of workforce challenges.
- Enhanced Flexibility and Scalability: Cloud migration offers the ability to scale resources up or down based on demand, avoiding the need for heavy investments in physical infrastructure designed for peak usage. This is especially useful for SMBs and startups that need to grow without significant expenditure.
- Improved Security: Cloud services now offer robust security features with comprehensive monitoring and dedicated teams of security professionals, such as the 3,500 experts safeguarding Microsoft Azure (the platform Crown’s cloud service is built upon). Cloud environments also eliminate the risk of downtime due to physical disasters.
- Cost Efficiency and Financial Flexibility: Migrating to the cloud allows businesses to move their workforce management costs from being a capital expense (CAPex) to an operating expense (OPex). This means businesses can pay for services as they use them on a subscription basis, which is particularly advantageous for growth and avoids the financial burden of depreciating hardware and extensive maintenance.
- Consistently Improved User Experience: Cloud services from providers like Crown maintain high performance levels, ensuring a top-notch user experience that doesn’t degrade over time, unlike physical servers that may slow down and reduce productivity. This reliability is crucial for maintaining efficiency and potentially increasing revenue.
