Cloud solutions do not require you to make any significant equipment investment, which means you have no equipment maintenance costs.<\/p>\n<p>The cost of application upgrades and patching is also removed from cloud-based solutions, as these processes happen automatically in the cloud.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, cloud solutions are incredibly flexible \u2013 particularly when it comes to only paying for the resources you need.<\/p>\n<p>With on-premise solutions, you must buy enough hardware to cope with your highest peaks \u2013 meaning lots of this hardware that you have paid for will not provide value on a consistent basis.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, cloud solutions convert traditional capital costs into operational expenses. This offers more flexibility and covers any costs that would not have been considered in an on-premise deployment.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.opentext.com\/info\/cloud\/total-cost-of-ownership?utm_source=MyBroadband&amp;utm_medium=Article&amp;utm_campaign=January+2022\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Find out how much money you could save with OpenText Cloud.<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\"><strong>Learn more about OpenText Cloud<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you are still running on-premise information management systems, you should switch to OpenText Cloud to save your organisation time and money.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019d like to learn more about OpenText Cloud, fill out the form below and an OpenText expert will contact you.<\/p>\n<p>OpenText\u2019s Business Value Consulting division is also able to conduct a Cloud Readiness Assessment for organisations ready to embark on their journey to the cloud.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width: 100%; margin-top: 0px;\" src=\"https:\/\/leads.mybroadband.co.za\/opentext-standalone\/\" width=\"100%\" height=\"630px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OpenText has partnered with Microsoft Azure, AWS and Google Cloud to help you build cloud-based information management solutions that suit your organisation\u2019s specific needs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":57,"featured_media":554402,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10459],"tags":[15818],"class_list":["post-554398","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-industry-news","tag-opentext"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/554398","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/57"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=554398"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/554398\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":554632,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/554398\/revisions\/554632"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/554402"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=554398"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=554398"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=554398"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
