CloudANZ provides the highest level of secure hosting for mission critical business systems. Failure is not an option. Our state of the art data centres enable medium-sized businesses to achieve levels of reliability and performance that were previously only available to the largest corporations.

CloudANZ operates on a Private Cloud business model; this means you will retain full control over your business system, exactly the same as if your system was hosted within your own premises plus with higher levels of reliability.

In addition to maintaining personalised control you will also enjoy the benefits of access and reliability at a much higher level than would be practical if you have your own in-house system.
CloudANZ is designed to give you all the benefits of a personalised system plus reliability standards at the highest level, at a reasonable level of cost.

CloudANZ is a specialist cloud hosting service provider which caters for the needs of medium-sized organisations. Most of our clients have between 20 to 500 system users.

Many organisations find they reach a tipping point, where they have outgrown their existing business system. They need a more powerful system to cater for growth and at the same time they do not want to employ specialist IT staff or to invest in complex and expensive IT infrastructure.

We can provide you with levels of reliability and IT infrastructure that were previously only available to large corporations and government organisations. We can deliver this service at a price that is reasonable and affordable for your business.

As you grow your business you will need to ensure your users can connect with your system during extended business hours, e.g. currently daylight saving is not observed in WA, NT and Queensland.

CloudANZ is based in Melbourne, and supports users in New Zealand from 8am NZ time (6am Melbourne time) as well as supporting users in Perth through to 6pm, which is 9pm in Melbourne time (during Eastern Daylight Saving time). Therefore your systems need to be supported and operational for 15 hours per day just to cater for an 8am – 6pm time slot across Australia and New Zealand. Allowing for some users working late and some starting earlier, therefore system maintenance and backups need to be scheduled to ensure your users are not disrupted across all Australian and New Zealand time zones.

• Pro-active monitoring of system performance
• Managed rollout of security updates, anti-virus, etc.
• Independent verification of all updates prior to implementation, to ensure as far as possible that they are compatible with your systems.

Cloud ANZ is based on a pro-active system maintenance method known as “managed services”. We use some of the most advanced managed services network diagnostics available in the world today. Our Managed Services division recently won the N-Able “Managed Service Provider of the Year Award – Australia-New Zealand”.

Our service is also recognised by Microsoft as a Silver Level Cloud Hosting Partner.

Anti-virus and security patches are managed pro-actively by our highly trained staff.

Pro-active maintenance and support is also available for your local workstations, laptops and other equipment.
