From outdated to future-proof
The Beijer Group faced the challenge of modernising their existing, outdated SAP Business One environment. After a selection process, they chose to partner with Amista and opted for a full migration to SAP Business One V10.0 on Microsoft Azure. The project aimed to achieve continuity, reliability and scalability for the entire organisation with a more user-friendly system and less IT complexity
- Outdated on-premise IT infrastructure
- Regular system failures with direct impact on production and revenue
- Performance of current systems did not meet expectations: slow and unstable systems
- Need for scalability and forward-looking IT strategy
- Customisation & Vendor lock (SAP & network vendor)
- Need for a trusted advisor with state-of-the-art solutions
- Improved user experience and continuity through online and offline use
- Increased security and reliability
- Full integration with existing Microsoft products (including Office 365)
- Scalability and flexibility in line with growth ambitions
- Turnover loss eliminated
- Sustainability by moving away from traditional data centres
About the solution
Amista migrated the SAP Business One environment to Microsoft Azure, a powerful and reliable cloud platform that integrates with the Microsoft tools such as Office 365 that the Beijer Group was already using. By using smart sizing tailored to the number of users per entity, a stable and efficient SAP Business One v10.0 environment was set up. All elements, from security to monitoring and support, were bundled into one integrated model.
