Thank you for Subscribing to CIO Applications Weekly Brief
In an interview with CIO Applications, Avanxo’s Manager for Latin America, Carlos Caceres, and Maria Lucia Munoz, its Business Development Manager, take us through the company’s chronicle, throwing light on the trends and challenges in cloud computing and Avanxo’s unique value proposition and its future plans.
What are the upcoming trends you see in the marketplace and how do you plan to leverage them and evolve?
In today’s hyper-competitive market, customers are aggressive about solving accessibility issues for their resources across multiple platforms. Besides they are looking for multiple ways of communicating with their partners, customers, and internal employees regardless of where they are located. With the promise of agility and flexibility in accessing IT resources, cloud has emerged as a dominant way to remain competitive today.
Initially, the cloud technology was perceived merely from a technical standpoint that involved moving business data and applications to cloud for operational efficiency. The modern cloud, however, has evolved to benefit companies with actionable business insights while providing them with more robustness, enhanced customer service, simplicity, and foolproof security for their confidential business data. Nevertheless, companies face many challenges with regard to planning their cloud migration, choosing the right solution provider for it, and basically lack the expertise to support their cloud infrastructure.
This is where we come in. We help companies address both technical and business challenges while adding significant value to make their resources a competitive advantage.
Can you explain your approach in delivering solutions and the benefits your clients receive from those solutions?
Avanxo follows a unique methodology in delivering its solutions. At the outset, we make a quick discovery of a client’s business objectives and existing challenges and follow it up with building a prototype or proof of concept through an early adoption program. Our team of AWS specialists help customers in understanding the professional services requirements including the design of solutions, architecture, cost-optimization, technical reviews, and how to aboard new and different requirements. Our agile methodology enables us to quickly offer a solutions framework which reduces their time to market by leaps and bounds. Instead of having on-premise, large and labor-intensive operational setup, companies can rely on Avanxo’s cloud solutions that offer a console to manage services and have an integrated view of their IT infrastructure.
Being an AWS advanced consulting partner, we offer consulting services to assist customers in understanding the right AWS solution for them considering the nature and size of their business
Unlike other vendors that offer the same solution for different problems, we solve critical problems facing businesses in addition to providing the required support. Being a multi-cloud, professional services company catering to multiple industries, we are focused on assisting clients in their mission to achieve scalability. Besides, our experienced workforce is certified in different platforms and solutions including Salesforce, Microsoft Azure, and Apttus, among others.
Can you share a case study where Avanxo helped a company to overcome their challenges?
Avanxo’s cloud solutions have helped companies migrate from on-premise infrastructure to cloud. One such company—based in Latin America—wanted to move their entire business operations to the cloud. With more than 500 machines, hundreds of servers, services, and applications to be migrated, it was one of the most complex projects. Leveraging our cloud solutions, they were able to migrate efficiently and in a timely manner. The client is now reaping the benefits of low operational cost and improved production efficiency.
What are Avanxo’s future plans?
At present, we have offices in six countries including U.S., Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, Argentina and Peru. We have plans to expand our footprint on a global scale and help more companies including startups in their digital transformation journey. Our goal is to create a leadership position in the cloud solutions arena by expanding our partner portfolio. With the dawn of disruptive technologies such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, and IoT, we are in the process of enhancing our cloud solutions to incorporate these new technologies.
