Migrating to the cloud brings in a multitude of benefits to a company, such as increased agility, flexibility and cost savings. Over the past few years, companies across various sectors have moved towards cloud CRMs to avail the associated benefits. However, a number of companies today are facing the problem of getting locked on their cloud CRMs. Getting locked on cloud is a situation where the customer has invested in a product or service that does not allow them the flexibility to transition to alternative public or private clouds or to go on-premise depending on their evolving IT/Business strategy. Cloud lock-in is usually the result of proprietary software that cannot support multiple cloud platforms such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, IBM Cloud, Google Cloud, Rackspace, etc. which ultimately restricts the organizations from choosing a cloud provider of their choice.

What Makes Cloud Agnostic CRMs So Important

Investing in a cloud-agnostic CRM is especially important for organizations in banking, insurance or financial services sectors where there may be a regulatory requirement to host data within specific regions. Cloud-agnostic CRM solutions will be increasingly important to organizations adopting a multi-cloud strategy. Not only can the traditional benefits of standardization be realized when solutions are deployed across multiple clouds, but leveraging a cloud-agnostic CRM can also help companies in alleviating the costs associated with policy design, deployment and enforcement across multiple environments.

SimpleCRM’s Cloud Agnostic CRM Platform – Advantages

• By choosing SimpleCRM, companies become less dependent on any one cloud service provider for all of their requirements. Moreover, companies can cherry-pick offerings from each cloud provider to implement best-of-breed solutions and services into their portfolio.
• Companies can optimize performance across their solutions, increase reliability and drastically decrease the risk of security breaches and falling victims to ransomware attacks targeting a specific cloud platform.
• Another major advantage is cost savings. When companies break free of vendor lock in, they can prioritize how to spend their money and other resources, leading to efficiency which ensures significant cost savings.
• SimpleCRM also allows companies to host a copy of their CRM instance on-premise, in addition to having it on cloud. This gives organizations the satisfaction of knowing that they will always be able to access their data and never get locked out.
• SimpleCRM’s multi-cloud solution helps companies meet the necessary regulatory compliance rules. For example, in many countries, certain sectors like Banking, Insurance and Financial Services have regulatory compliance rules to host the data on premises or within their own country.
• Sometimes, integrating with legacy systems may require an on-premise, hybrid or other types of combination deployment models, which can be easily be achieved with SimpleCRM.
