From Business Central On-premises to Cloud: Removing Showstoppers
byCompanial

The on-premise customer base is still relatively large in comparison to new cloud customers, with many legacy customers reluctant to move forward to the cloud. In this podcast, we will discuss how to change the “if it isn't broken, don't fix it” attitude many of these customers have, and start moving even the most conservative customers forward to the cloud, all while maintaining productive and profitable relationships.

Agenda:

  • Intro
  • Why is the topic bringing Business Central on-premises customers to the Cloud still relevant?
  • What are the most common objections you hear which stop Partners from moving the cloud?
  • What arguments do you bring to these partners?
  • What is your message to Partners who tend to abandon their old Business Central on-premises installations/customers and focus on new customers/opportunities?
  • Is Microsoft SaaS offering good enough to migrate directly to Microsoft Cloud?
  • How are Partners who have build their own competence in the Cloud infrastructure doing now, what challenges they're facing, are they satisfied?
