Clearing the Fog from Cloud Computing

Confused about the Cloud? Don’t be.

Synergy has several resources available to help companies understand Cloud computing and evaluate a business case for moving to it. Whether you already have on-premise Microsoft Dynamics ERP software, are exploring a new accounting system, or just want to research the benefits of the Cloud (and cut through the hype), you will find information to help you make an informed decision.

First, there is Considering Cloud and On-Premise Accounting Solutions: A Guide to Put Things in Focus. This document reviews the various choices companies have to achieve the unprecedented flexibility, anytime/anywhere real-time visibility, and higher ROI the Cloud offers. It explains the differences between the three major categories of modern financial management and accounting software: on-premise, Cloud hosted solutions, and Cloud web-based solutions with a handy comparison chart. It traces the real differences, what you need to consider, all the potential benefits Cloud computing brings, and when an on-premise deployment is the right choice. If things were hazy before, they won’t be after reading this document.

In addition, Synergy is hosting a special event on November 8, 2011 at the Microsoft Store in Bellevue, Washington with Microsoft Cloud expert Dan Youngers, called Clearing the Fog from Cloud Computing. Geared toward CFOs, controllers, finance/IT/project managers, and executives in project-centric companies, including government contractors, the presentation will help you learn all about:

• Successes in the Cloud and its widespread adoption and growth
• Microsoft’s Cloud investments and flexibility
• Types of Cloud deployments
• Data centers, security, reliability, and design
• Benefits of the Cloud: lower capital investment, increased productivity, unlocking information for all, improved customer support, reduced risk
• Whether you are a good fit for moving to the Cloud\
• How Microsoft Dynamics SL in the Cloud makes project accounting, project management, and financial reporting much easier

You can register for this event, or, if you’re out of the region, your registration will gain you access to a valuable white paper entitled, Achieving Competitive Advantage in the Age of Cloud Computing. Be sure to take advantage of one or more of these resources, and if you’re near Bellevue, join us at the event.
