Fra én løsning til to: Konica Minolta repositionerer SAFEQ Cloud

Ny produktduo imødekommer forskellige kundebehov – SAFEQ Cloud Breeze tilbyder små og mellemstore virksomheder en enkel, hurtigt implementerbar og prisvenlig cloud-printløsning, mens SAFEQ Cloud Pro fortsætter som den etablerede enterprise-version

Med repositioneringen af den eksisterende cloud-printløsning SAFEQ Cloud til to klart definerede produktvarianter – SAFEQ Cloud Pro og SAFEQ Cloud Breeze – imødekommer Konica Minolta de forskellige krav fra sine kunder og markedets behov. Mens SAFEQ Cloud Pro, som efterfølgeren til den tidligere SAFEQ Cloud, fortsat fungerer som den etablerede og yderligere forbedrede enterprise-løsning for komplekse IT-miljøer, er SAFEQ Cloud Breeze den nye, forenklede variant udviklet specifikt til små og mellemstore virksomheder. Den tilbyder alle essentielle cloud-printfunktioner – designet til enkelhed og brugervenlighed og til en betydeligt lavere startpris.

SAFEQ Cloud Breeze: Enkel, Hurtig og Cloud-Native

Med lanceringen af SAFEQ Cloud Breeze reagerer Konica Minolta på en klar markedsefterspørgsel: Mange små og mellemstore virksomheder søger en cloud-printløsning, der passer til deres IT-infrastruktur – nem at bruge, hurtig at implementere og økonomisk attraktiv. Med SAFEQ Cloud Breeze tilbyder Konica Minolta nu en skræddersyet løsning specifikt designet til cloud-miljøer og ressourcerne hos mindre virksomheder, hvilket reducerer den administrative indsats betydeligt.

SAFEQ Cloud Breeze er en cloud-native print- og scanløsning, designet til mindre virksomheder, der allerede anvender Microsoft 365 eller Google Workspace og derfor opererer i et cloud-ready miljø. Takket være plug-and-play-implementering kan brugere komme i gang på få minutter. Nøglefunktioner inkluderer: sikker printning (via kort eller PIN), mobilprint, one-touch scanning med ABBY OCR til e-mail eller arkiver, samt cost reporting – alt styret fuldt ud i skyen.

SAFEQ Cloud Pro: Den etablerede enterprise-version for komplekse IT-miljøer

Den cloud-native print- og scanadministrationsløsning SAFEQ Cloud Pro er en videreudviklet version af den tidligere SAFEQ Cloud-løsning og henvender sig til mellemstore og store organisationer. SAFEQ Cloud Pro inkluderer alle funktioner fra Breeze. Derudover tilbyder den en hybridarkitektur, der forbinder cloud- og on-premise-miljøer, samt integrationer med SAP, AS/400, LDAP og Active Directory. Med udvidede autentificeringsmuligheder (OIDC, OAuth, Ping ID), dedikeret hosting, premium SLA’er og 24/7 overvågning er SAFEQ Cloud Pro designet til virksomheder med komplekse, forretningskritiske IT-setup og høje krav til sikkerhed og governance.

Da begge løsninger er cloud-baserede, kræves der ikke længere lokal printserver- eller driveradministration for IT-afdelingen.

En portefølje, der tilbyder den rette cloud-printløsning til enhver virksomhed

Med SAFEQ Cloud Breeze og SAFEQ Cloud Pro skaber Konica Minolta skræddersyede muligheder inden for sin cloud-printportefølje.

“Vi har erkendt, at der ikke findes én cloud-printløsning, der passer til alle. Med den nye opdeling af vores portefølje reagerer vi direkte på forskellige kundebehov: SAFEQ Cloud Breeze tilbyder mindre virksomheder en enkel, hurtigt implementerbar og prisvenlig løsning, mens SAFEQ Cloud Pro, som den kraftfulde enterprise-version, opfylder kravene hos større organisationer med komplekse IT-strukturer. Uanset om det drejer sig om enkel plug-and-play-implementering eller kompleks enterprise-arkitektur – med SAFEQ Cloud Breeze og SAFEQ Cloud Pro har virksomheder nu altid den rette løsning, der passer til deres miljø.”

Tilgængelighed

Den nye SAFEQ Cloud-portefølje er udviklet i tæt samarbejde med Y Soft, udvikleren af YSoft SAFEQ Cloud-platformen. Begge løsninger – SAFEQ Cloud Breeze og SAFEQ Cloud Pro – vil være tilgængelige fra 10. december 2025.
