Mindlance, a systems integrator, has announced that it has successfully implemented a Cloud-based email and collaboration solution for Mumbai based Principal Pnb Asset Management Co. Pvt. Ltd, a Financial Asset Management company. Principal Pnb had a legacy email system with inherent technical issues. Mindlance, using the Microsoft cloud, implemented a systemic approach for migration to create a State-of-Art highly scalable cloud based online email solution with additional features like instance messaging, Audio/Video conferencing and collaboration.
“We made the decision to migrate our email platform from in-house Exchange servers to Microsoft Cloud due to the clear business advantages it offers, as it is scalable, easily accessible, manageable, secure and most importantly, offers an opex model”, said Rajan Ghotgalkar, Country Head and Managing Director, Principal Pnb Asset Management. Mindlance had also recently implemented internally a Cloud based solution for its email system, adopting the Microsoft Cloud. The solution was highly reliable as compared to other solutions available in the market and moreover uses only 12% of the IT budget. Mindlance did a comprehensive analysis of its solution in the market in terms of technology and trends and once it was confident about its competitiveness, it was implemented.
“The success of the above Cloud implementations has now spurred us to aggressively market our cloud-based offerings in India. Having demonstrated a proven ability to help customers migrate to cloud environments, Mindlance has invested heavily in its cloud services to provide our customers with the support and guidance they need to get the most from the cloud,” said Kamal Sharma, Group CIO & ITIM SBU Head, Mindlance.
“The demand for cloud based services amongst enterprises in India has shown major growth in the last few years, primarily because it eliminates the need to invest in hardware, software licenses, security and related management costs by providing a Pay per Use facility. Mindlance is today well poised to address client needs, enhance our solutions and support offerings and deliver superior customer value through accelerated deployment using the Microsoft Cloud as well as assisting customers in the adoption of Microsoft cloud platform products such as BPOS, Office365, Windows Intune & Windows Azure.” added Kamal Sharma.
