What is calculating in the cloud?
The interesting thing is that vNext in the cloud and vNext as an on-premise solution are essentially the same software, with all the functionality and features you need for effective cost accounting. However, the main difference lies in how you access and benefit from this software.
Automated updates.
Always the newest.
Collaboration.
In real-time.
Security.
Maximum protection.
Smooth implementation.
Very intuitive.
Cost saving.
Such as no servers of their own.
Automated updates.
KPD takes care of regular software updates, allowing users to automatically benefit from the latest features and performance improvements without manually performing updates. You stay up-to-date without the hassle of constantly checking and installing manual updates. The convenience of automatic updates ensures that you can work undisturbed with the latest and most improved version of the software, without interruptions or delays.
Real-time collaboration.
Work on the same calculations in a structured way and all in real-time. Thanks to the ‘Multi-user functionality,’ you can work on one calculation simultaneously. One person can handle multiple chapters, while other colleagues focus on other parts.
Scalable: Number of users.
Since you only pay for rent, you can flexibly determine the number of users you need in a specific period.
Built-in data backups.
Calculation in the cloud is synonymous with an advanced approach to data processing, offering a range of benefits to optimize the security and availability of calculations. An essential feature of this advanced cloud calculation is the frequency of regular updates and backups to ensure data integrity. These updates are carried out regularly, with three different types playing a crucial role in securing data and optimizing system performance.
Firstly, weekly updates are performed to quickly and efficiently integrate any changes in data or system settings. This periodic maintenance contributes to the stability of calculations and ensures that the system is always up-to-date with the latest information.
In addition, daily backups are performed with a frequency of every 12 or 24 hours, depending on the specific needs of the user. These backups serve as an additional safety measure, ensuring that even in the event of unforeseen events or disasters, the most recent data remains available for recovery.
A final and extremely important security layer is formed by transaction log backups, which are performed at intervals of every 10 minutes. These frequent backups ensure that even the smallest transactions are captured and securely stored, minimizing the risk of data loss.
Accessible: Only WIFI needed.
Use calculation in the cloud from any location with internet access.
This enables collaboration between team members in different locations and allows professionals to perform calculations on the go.
Your favorite tools.
Cloud calculation seamlessly integrates with other KPD applications or third-party tools, enabling smooth data flow and process automation.
Cost saving
Cloud-based calculation offers significant cost savings on various fronts. The main advantage is that you don’t need to purchase your own servers, eliminating both initial investments and ongoing costs for maintenance and updates. In addition, since KPD is responsible for both hosting and software, you have only one point of contact.
