your migration to the cloud In recent weeks, many of our customers have started making serious investigations into migrating to the cloud. We are pleased to assure our client base that all Balmori Software software solutions will run on the cloud. Balmori Software can support cloud intenders - from the migration phase all the way to the maintenance phase. We provide configuration advice, planning, and implementation. We can also do actual installation of apps in the cloud server of your choice, and do remote or in-person set up of the work stations at your various company geographical locations (i.e., officers' and key team members' homes).Your migration to the cloud can be done entirely remotely.

a. Land line. Our regular telephone numbers. This can be your first resort. However, be warned that we ourselves will be practicing lots of social distancing, and consequently will be working from home more intensively from now on. If you can't reach us via our landlines, please try the following alternatives.
2. Technical supportb. Email. No explanation needed. c. Skype. We have installed Skype in all our computers. This communications software is downloadable at no charge. It enables sharing of a computer screen. d. Zoom. We have installed Zoom in all our computers. This communications software is downloadable at no charge. It enables both one-on-one and large group online meetings, and also allows the sharing of a computer screen.
a. Land line: You may use land line if your query does not require the showing of a software screen

Email: again, no explanation needed. Note: For everyone's benefit, conveying a problem in writing is preferred because it serves to document the interaction - always a good thing in business. c. Skype: If you have a technical problem that requires you showing us your computer screen, Skype has the capability to share a screen between the participants of a call. d. Zoom: Similarly, for technical support that necessitates showing a problem on a shared screen, a Zoom session is an excellent alternative to Skype. If you are not yet familiar with Zoom, we suggest you start educating yourself now. Instead, we shall conduct presentations and trainings via Zoom or Skype. Both communications software provide both sound and video. Moreover, they are both capable of showing a shared screen to meeting participants. Continue reading this article online.
