Customer Stories – Genco Group
Autologica Sky DMS is a highly scalable cloud-based DMS that enhances the security of your data and reduces your infrastructure costs. The Genco Group chose to transition to the cloud version of Autologica Sky DMS to streamline their processes and avoid focusing efforts on maintaining their own servers.
“Previously, we had in-house staff responsible for data storage and servers, but we later outsourced these services but still encountered repetitive problems and delays. When we decided to move to the cloud, the support and follow-up we received from Autologica were top-notch. This provided us with a lot of confidence. The migration itself was a success; we began at opening time and by mid-morning everything was up and running”. Carlos Tutor | Genco Group
Autologica’s cloud-based DMS on the one hand provides contract flexibility. At the same time, it offers strict security measures to help prevent threats to dealership data from hackers and ransomware attacks. Autologica Sky DMS includes server and database operating system licenses. Security patches and updates are installed automatically.
“With this change, the system operates much better than before, resulting in time savings for several tasks. Additionally, it provides extra peace of mind because we no longer have to worry or depend on the support of in-house or third-party personnel for infrastructure maintenance.” Carlos Tutor | Genco Group
