WFT’s classification of services under these three broad categories is built upon WFT Cloud’s own SAP Cloud Image Factory (SCIF). The SCIF methodology, based on various “permutation & combinations” of SAP installations, rests at the core of how WFT Cloud saves its customers both time and money when provisioning their SAP landscapes on Cloud. WFT Cloud’s “SCIF” library, containing over 800+ SAP Images, combined with WFT’s Rapid Migration approach enables faster deployment of SAP Landscapes in matter of days (not weeks). This will help customers to reduce their CapEx and OpEx on running SAP solutions and meet their SLAs. WFT’s subscription based Pay-As-You-Use model further increases customer ROI.
WFT Cloud customers realize greater cost savings through a predictable pricing structure. WFT Cloud’s all inclusive fixed-price model includes: cost for hardware and software, SAP operations support, SAP data protection, as well as SAP system refresh and patching. WFT Cloud customers experience accelerated ROI and a cost-saving advantage after migrating their SAP Solutions to Cloud. The following are the average cost savings for WFT Cloud customers when migrating from legacy Infrastructure.
- WFT Owned and Managed Private Cloud at Customer Premises — minimum of 30-40% savings
- WFT Owned and Managed Hybrid Cloud (On Premise/WFT Cloud) — minimum of 40-50% savings
- WFT Owned and Managed Public Cloud at WFT CLOUD — minimum of 50-60% savings
WFT Cloud customers can also take advantage of our “Cloud Aggregation Solution”. The cloud aggregation solution provides customers with the flexibility and choice of selecting between competing cloud infrastructure solutions to host the SAP application. This option truly serves to benefit WFT Cloud customers by delivering SLA driven options, reduced operational costs and faster ROI.
Ganesh Radhakrishnan, CEO of WFT Cloud, concurs with Gartner’s assumption that, “30% of all businesses will own absolutely no IT assets come 2014”. This is why WFT Cloud has become a leader in helping customers to reduce operation costs and improve efficiencies when migrating their SAP landscapes onto a Private, Hybrid or WFT Cloud.
