Cost Savings: We regularly move to new hardware in the cloud, which can be more cost-effective for schools compared to maintaining and upgrading on-premise hardware and software.

Scalability: Our cloud infrastructure is scaled up or down based on demand. Users don’t experience any disruptions or lag times during peak periods. This is particularly useful during report writing for teachers when there is an increased resource demand.

Always Up-to-Date Software: Automatic updates and maintenance, ensuring that schools have access to the latest features and improvements, reducing support demand on school technicians. We often deploy multiple updates per day to fix bugs and add features.

Data Backup and Recovery: A robust data backup and disaster recovery mechanism is in place, ensuring that critical data is safe and can be restored in case of any unfortunate events. Our cloud service provides a 35 day point in time backup/restore with weekly backups beyond that.

Accessibility: Being web-based, Accelerus is accessible from anywhere with an internet connection, enabling teachers, students, and staff to work remotely and have 24/7 access to resources.

Greater Digital Security: With Microsoft backed threat detection for things such as DoS attacks, our cloud service invests heavily in security measures, employing encryption, access controls, and regular security updates to protect sensitive data.

Much Greater Physical Security: Compared to on-premise servers, which frequently exist in unattended buildings, hosted servers are located in extremely secure locations with 24/7 monitoring. Redundant power sources and backup generators ensure the hosting site remains online under all but the most extreme circumstances.
