The full functionality of Berniq Hosted ERP is available with Berniq Cloud:
On-Demand
Hosted in an IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) environment, also referred to as on-demand. The IaaS business model delivers software via a provider that hosts and manages the software, licenses the software on a subscription basis and enables users to access the software through the Internet.
As an IaaS provider, Berniq hosts your virtual machine and manages the underlying equipment, providing storage and other resources as needed. You remain in control of the software and whatever applications, data and operating systems you put on the infrastructure.
Upgrades
Berniq Cloud is a single tenant offering, allowing each customer to maintain and control the timing of their upgrades.
Payment
Customers sign up for a minimum 12-month period and pay a monthly subscription to use the service. This includes the infrastructure and management but excludes the Berniq software.
On-going Support
Support for infrastructure-related issues is provided as part of the monthly subscription. For application support, a customer can elect to sign a support contract with a Berniq Channel Partner or a local Berniq office.
Any upgrades are handled by Berniq or Service Provider and these are included in the monthly subscription fee
Access to Berniq via the Internet
