Securing C-Suite Support for a Cloud Migration
We are smack-dab in the middle of the budget planning season for 2021. Are you stressing about shoe-horning in a spend for a badly-needed cloud migration to replace your company’s legacy systems and also having to justify it to the C-suite?
Most likely, the reason your key C-suite stakeholders haven’t seriously considered cloud computing previously is that they are not armed with the right information. So, it’s up to you to help them see the benefits, which in turn may make them see the light and be more motivated to make the necessary changes.
Ad Victoriam has done hundreds of cloud migration projects for businesses of all sizes, so we’re pretty familiar with the pain points in securing C-suite support. So, in an effort to help you, below are five benefits of why doing a cloud migration should absolutely be included when you submit your 2021 budget plan for approval. And each benefit includes specific challenges that will be solved.
