Data Backup and Disaster Recovery Included in Juris Cloud
Juris is a powerful legal accounting, time & billing software that helps firms to manage their day-to-day operations and meet client expectations. As technology has evolved and cloud computing became mainstream closer to 2012, many law firms have chosen to migrate their servers and software to the juris cloud. This is a smart move that eliminates the cost, hassle and risks of having to own or maintain your own servers in house and provides the flexibility of working from anywhere, using any device.
But for some law firms, migrating to the cloud is a challenge because of the way Juris and other servers are set up. Until recently, software like Juris and many other practice management systems required that each firm own their own server to operate. This is how the software was installed and accessed by users.
A new workaround to this is to “cloudify” your Juris and run it as a web application on a cloud platform. But this can be limiting because it requires your computers to have the appropriate specifications and can be expensive depending on how you configure your system.
Is Data Backup and Disaster Recovery Included in Juris Cloud?
The best solution is to work with a provider who has been providing hosting services for years and has a proven track record of excellent customer service and support. It is also important to do some research into the provider you’re considering, ensuring they have a good reputation and reviews on Google and BBB.
Once you’ve selected a provider, be sure to get the details on how they will host your Juris and the rest of the systems you want to run in the cloud. Some providers will only offer a Private Cloud for Juris while others may provide a Virtual Desktop that is more flexible, but still limits you to working from one location.
If you choose to go with a Private Cloud, ensure the provider is transparent with their pricing and terms of service. You should know the cost of the server and how much space you are getting as well as the number of users that can be hosted on your Juris instance.
