The phenomenon that is cloud is shaking traditional IT to its core. The growth in cloud services is nothing short of exponential. Meanwhile hardware sales for traditional datacenter technologies declines fast. When we launched our Cloud services in the UAE in 2013 the conversation used to be; “Is cloud really viable? Is cloud secure? Should I consider it instead of on premise?”, now the conversation has changed to; “Which cloud is best for which application? How much of our IT can we move to the cloud? When can we migrate to the cloud?”

Choosing which cloud is best for you and who is best to manage it is no easy task. You will find several cloud companies in the Middle East and many integrators offering to resell or manage cloud solutions. All of them claim to provide exceptional customer service and guaranteed up time too. The challenge then is to find a supplier that can not only help you migrate to the cloud, provide excellent service and up time but who is also an ideal match for your business. This paper is designed to help you measure different potential partners and help you find the one best suited to your business.
