Is Your Business Ready For The Cloud?
While many understand the benefits that come with a cloud-based delivery of technology services, it is vital to know beforehand both your organizational suitability for cloud services and at what stage your readiness is.
With Cloud Assessment Services, you can:

✔ Review your organization structure and processes to identify any key areas of improvement
✔ Assess your Disaster Recovery strategy and Cybersecurity measures to ensure your business and customers data is safe
Vendor Assessments
We can conduct assessments of potential cloud vendors to determine their suitability to provide services in line with your needs. Some of the key factors to consider include:
Regulatory compliance, determining whether the supplier is either compliant with necessary regulatory requirements or is willing to undergo necessary audits to become compliant
Data integrity, ensuring that a prospective vendor properly segregates their data in dedicated hosting setups
Data recovery services: does the vendor have the capability of restoring information in the event of an outage?
Cloud data security assessments, determining whether or not your data is secure and the risk of loss is minimized
Monitoring capability: do they offer robust monitoring, reporting and ability to investigate issues?
