With the cloud\nservice, we know immediately if there is a problem and can quickly fix it\nremotely. There is no need for on-premise visits. Tata Communications\u2019\nenterprise-grade service and support and its global footprint were deciding\nfactors in our decision to migrate to IZO Private Cloud platform.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prior to the\nmigration to Tata Communications&#8217; IZO Private Cloud platform, Focus Softnet was\noffering customers onsite perpetual licensing and was looking for a suitable\npartner for global hosting of its cloud-based Focus 9 application. With Tata\nCommunications\u2019 IZO Private Cloud platform, Focus Softnet is able to offer\ncustomers scalability and agility with its cloud software licensing, which is a\nflexible pay-as-you-go model, and can deliver anytime, anywhere. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Focus Softnet can now provide an end-to-end solution\nand round-the-clock support for its global customers. When new customers are onboarded, Tata\nCommunications\u2019 engineers work closely to understand their needs and size the\nIZO Private Cloud offering accordingly. Depending on the customer requirements,\nTata Communications can offer either a dedicated virtual machine or shared\ncloud model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith Tata\nCommunications\u2019 IZO Private Cloud, there are no bottlenecks and it is\naffordable to our small and medium business (SMB) clients. Faster set-up and\ngreater network performance have opened the door to business expansion. We\nadopted a flexible multi-cloud model to offer the best experience to our\nclients. This helps cement their loyalty while opening new, recurring revenue\nstreams. The move to Tata Communications\u2019 IZO Private Cloud means we get better\nsupport everywhere. Their resources make a distinct difference,&#8221; Mr. Hyder\nsaid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to its\nglobal reach, Tata Communications matched the requirement of having its cloud\nnodes closest to Focus Softnet\u2019s customers, thereby reducing the latency or sluggishness\nof response to application refresh. The company\u2019s customers in the UAE, Saudi\nArabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Singapore, Malaysia and India are using Focus Softnet\u2019s\nsolutions on the IZO Private Cloud platform. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Focus Softnet\nhas adopted a multiple business cloud model from Tata Communications to offer\nthe most stable and cost-effective cloud experience to its current and future\nglobal customers. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By using the Tata Communications\u2019 cloud hosting platform, Focus Softnet has achieved an agile, flexible, scalable and cost-effective delivery model for global customers.
