Cloudscape streamlines processes and becomes operationally efficient thanks to Atera

Cloudscape

With more than 50 contract clients, Cloudscape needed a streamlined way of managing each client’s individual requirements, recording billable hours, and handling day-to-day support tasks. Cloudscape needed a new IT management platform with the technological capabilities to empower more automation and future growth opportunities. Since Cloudscape started leveraging Atera, the company has been able to save money and grow. Beyond improving the customer experience, Atera’s IT management platform helped Cloudscape reduce customer service burdens on its team and further automate their processes.

“We were using several disjointed systems at the time and were tracking time spent on client projects through Outlook, manually syncing hours at the end of every day. It was very clunky. Atera has helped us streamline our processes to become more operationally efficient.”

Atera transforms the way Cloudscape does business

Gartner found that “many business and IT leaders see the customer experience as a sustainable source of competitive differentiation.” It became clear to Cloudscape that they needed to improve processes to ensure the company was providing a best-in-class experience to clients. Mike turned to Atera for help improving their processes and systems, that would in-turn offer a better experience to their customers. Gartner expects cloud migration to affect $1 trillion in IT spending by the end of 2020, making cloud computing one of the most disruptive technologies today, promising lucrative opportunities for those ready to meet this demand. With Atera, Cloudscape is set up to capitalize on the cloud opportunity in the market.

An all-in-one platform to centralize operations

Atera opened the door to truly transformational tools and resources that have helped Cloudscape thrive. Remote access for support purposes, online backups and monitoring, time recording, and ticketing are now all centralized via the Atera platform. Mike believes the system saves him an estimated 14 hours each month just on preparing the timesheets. Pleased with these time and cost savings, he is also leveraging the QuickBooks integration, which replaced his accounting and invoicing system. “With our increasing number of clients, the platform definitely makes all the overhead tasks easier as it automates so many processes and stops mistakes from happening,” Mike explained. “We have new people joining our team soon and we will start them on Atera straight away. With the platform in place, Cloudscape is well prepared for further growth.”

Atera helps Cloudscape save money

No one likes leaving money on the table. But what do you do when it’s more time consuming, and potentially costly, to try to retrieve the profits? That’s exactly the predicament the company was in when it came to managing all the disparate platforms. Atera helped Cloudscape save money because it offers everything the company needs in one platform.

“With all the integrations Atera offers, we have been able to retire four or five of our old platforms and services already, which has meant considerable bottom line cost savings.”
