Reach the cloud

Reach The Cloud.

Did you know… CIOs spend less than a fifth of their time on IT and business strategy?

Maple have launched a new initiative to map your whole IT environment, enabling you to determine a route to the cloud that is more cost-effective and promises higher efficiency and greater performance.

Our mapping service requires just half a day of your time to produce a map of your IT, similar to the below. We will spend an hour with you, and then gain deeper insight into your current systems, software and licensing from the wider IT team. Once we’ve plotted your IT map, we can present a critical path of where you are now, areas you need to take action, what’s possible for the future through strategic action and upgrades, and a preview of what lies just beyond your horizon.
