Case Study: SciTech Arabia secures communications and ERP data and gains mobile flexibility with Microsoft Azure

Qatar-based medical supplier secures operations with a move to cloud

SciTech Arabia, a leading Qatar-based medical and laboratory equipment supplier with more than 25% market share and regional operations across the GCC, faced growing IT security and continuity issues. Using a different cloud productivity provider for web hosting, Exchange and mail left the company vulnerable to hacked confidential emails, lacked a social platform for staff engagement, and had no disaster-recovery solution for financial and ERP data.

The company migrated to the Microsoft cloud—deploying Office 365 (E3 and Business Essentials), Enterprise Mobility Suite and Azure for disaster recovery—securing email and intranet/extranet access, backing up ERP and financial data to scalable Azure storage, and introducing Yammer and SharePoint for internal collaboration and workflows. The move delivered reliable, protected communications and data resilience, and SciTech Arabia is now planning to move its production environment to the cloud to further boost efficiency.
