Why should I consider Zoom?
You probably at this moment have one or two servers. One a mail server and the other a terminal server. These servers need constant maintenance and upgrading. They have a lifespan and will one day need replacing. Zoom removes the need to spend capital on replacement equipment and maintenance.
Can we run our current Accounting and Payroll software on Zoom?
Yes you can, however it must be legal and we would want to test the software on the ZOOM platform before signing off. ZOOM Currently supports a number of commonly available applications , so it is likely your software is already supported.
When changing to ZOOMCloud it may be a great time to look at one of the cloud based accounting packages. XERO is certainly making business accounting simple.
Do I need to pay for new versions of software?
Yes and No. For Microsoft you get access to all the latest versions when they become available with no capital outlay.
For customer specific software (like accounting software), it is down to your agreement with that vendor. One of the real benefits of using ZOOMCloud is that you are not required to pay for updates for the standard features.
Can we control who users what software?
Absolutely.You can control user access to all software and files within all parts of the system.
Security is a very strong feature of ZOOMCloud and you the business owner have total control.
Can we share files and folders?
This is one of the great advantages of ZOOMCloud. You can set up folder structure and permissions for all users. It is very easy to share files and folders and move large files throughout the company. You may be able to share folders with clients and other companies who use ZOOMCloud. Once your employees learn the benefits of file sharing – productivity is greatly increased.
How many users can we have using Zoom at anyone time?
As many as you require or can afford. Number of users is not a problem and performance is not affected. You may turn users on or off as your business grows or slows. It is so flexible and no longer do you need to purchase new software every-time you hire new people. Just call us and we can activate a new user account in minutes.
Do we need to backup?
No. All data is backed up by us and stored offsite. You no longer have to worry about disaster recovery. Your data is safer with us than it is on your current premisses. We absolutely make sure all your data is safe and protected at all times.
Is it expensive?
No not compared to owning and maintaining your own servers. You pay a flat monthly user fee and this can be added to or reduced at anytime. You can share logins to reduce the cost. However only one person can login using the same user ID at any one time.
The productivity gains from:
- More reliable and stable system
- No software conflicts
- All users using same versions of software
- File sharing
- Shared calendars
- Off site access
- Flexibility
- No backups
All these features make it very affordable. In fact the productivity gains alone more than pay for the moderate user fees.
Can I try before I Buy?
Absolutely. One of the greatest aspects of ZOOM is it already exists. No longer do you have to take the word of a salesman telling you to trust them, you can give ZOOM a go for yourself to see firsthand how it will work for your business. This takes all the risk out of making buying decisions that in the past were often leaps of faith.
How quickly can we setup a Zoom account?
To switch on a user ID can be setup very quickly once the paperwork is completed. Migrating data can take a little longer depending on the complexities of the software.
A trial logon can be setup immediately without paperwork.
Do you guarantee the service?
We have developed our Zoom platform using industry standard software and configurations, but as much as we may hope to never let you down, no-one can guarantee that something might not take the system down at some point. However we would do everything in our power to establish the service as quickly as possible. Your Internet connection is more likely to let you down and that is why we would recommend you be connected to Fibre. We do however offer a 100% money back guarantee if you feel our service is not up to your expectations.
