To manage or not to manage? – That is the question!

Finding the cloud hosting solution or the cloud server that best fits your business isn’t only about numbers and resources. It’s about identifying what are your critical business needs, what is our core business, and who is best at managing the various components of your business based on expertise and time.

Which type of business may need unmanaged or managed solutions?

Autonomous management solution (Unmanaged) is the best choice for companies that:

  • Have an existing internal and dedicated IT team.
  • Want to keep their administrative access and control their architectures.
  • Do not need any support and assistance.
  • Can invest on acquisition, management and renewal of expensive hardware and machines.
  • Possess the necessary experience to deal with configuration issues and tuning.

The management of the Cloud services in “Fully Managed Mode” is ideal for a form of business that:

  • Has a core business which is critical service driven – like Health and Aged Care
  • Has no deep technical know-how.
  • Needs a full support thanks to a safe and skilled guidance.
  • Has not got an internal solid IT department, which moreover has to be dedicated and capable.
  • Needs dedicated assistance and monitoring on 24x7x365 basis.
  • Needs to create a customized and unique infrastructure that is suited to particular features.
