Cloud-based service providers like Cisco, Google, IBM, and Microsoft have joined a legion of cloud-native startups in delivering messaging and collaboration services in a pay-as-you-go model. Whether you call it cloud computing, cloud-based services, or software-as-a-service, it adds up to keeping more money in the bank, getting projects started faster, and offloading hassles and responsibilities to a specialist.
Particularly during a recession, when the budget for new projects is hard to find, a cloud-based alternative to on-premise collaboration services makes tremendous sense. This teleconference presents a framework for understanding the risks and the benefits of cloud-based collaboration services, outlines the cost and business case differences between cloud-based and on-premise collaboration, and provides guidance on how to be successful in your cloud-based collaboration projects.
Agenda:
- What are the financial and business case benefits of cloud-based collaboration services?
- Which cloud-based collaboration service providers should you put on your short list
- What are the implementation and contract risks in cloud-based collaboration projects?
