A cloud solution company Infor, announced that Gulfsands has selected Infor SunSystems Cloud as its financial platform via Infor Gold Channel Partner Progressive TSL. As Gulfsands’ first customer to adopt the multi-tenant cloud financial application, the company anticipates enhanced security, lower risk, and a smaller IT footprint enabling greater resource availability and focus on its core business goals.
Gulfsands selected the cloud deployment due to the reduced risk, cost, and improved security that resulted from having no physical servers and the updated functionality and capabilities available in the latest version of SunSystems.
The cloud also delivers a much easier way of supporting an increasingly dispersed workforce, whether it involves finance professionals working from home or in geographically-spread projects and teams.
According to Andrew Morris, Gulfsands finance director,
“Having been a long-standing user of Infor SunSystems and having moved our other core systems to the cloud, we are incredibly excited to be the first SunSystems multi-tenant cloud customer. This provides important continuity in terms of both our joint venture and standalone financial reporting. The security, risk and cost benefits are also hugely valuable at a time when we are getting ready to scale up our business, and this will allow us to focus fully on our core business goals rather than dealing with an aging IT infrastructure that is out of kilter with the modern world.”
Joe Vargas, VP & general manager of Infor SunSystems said:
We’re delighted to welcome Gulfsands as our first Infor SunSystems customer to embrace the benefits of a full cloud deployment, So much more than a modern accounting system, SunSystems multi-tenant cloud delivers improved collaboration, security and a lower total cost of ownership that puts this energy leader in the best position from which to pursue its expansion and scale the business.”
