This second quarter in CloudFire can be summarized in two words: Change Ed evolution. The change, in fact, was undoubtedly the pillar of the past months and remains the vital force behind the evolution of CloudFire.

‍

‍

Cortex Redesign and CloudFire 🎨 Website

‍

The news of the last few months concerns precisely how CloudFire and Cortex present themselves to each user. Specifically, let's talk about Redesign.

‍

‍

Cortex Redesign πŸ“Š

‍

At the beginning of the quarter, we launched a new version of Cortex. Our goal was, and remains, to simplify access to cloud solutions and technologies through a model”As a Service”.

‍

Listening to user requests and driven by the desire to make Cortex even more aggregator, we have adopted a new approach in CloudFire.

‍

We have therefore reorganized our services into categories and changed the names of the services available on the platform. Currently available on Cortex you will find:

‍

But that's not the only news!

‍

In addition to a general style update present throughout the Project Manager, you will now find:

‍

  • Updated tab navigation for a better user experience in all available services;
  • Majority responsiveness of the elements present in the portal, adaptable to medium-sized screens.
Cortex CloudFire - What's new Q2

‍

Website Redesign

‍

Along with Cortex, also our Corporate site was the subject of a redesign!

‍

To ensure continuity with the changes made to Cortex, the site needed to evolve and become more dynamic, rich in new content and more aligned with our value proposition.

‍

You will find now clearer and more concrete contents, a easier navigation, a more dynamic page structure and a user interface that reflects our continuous evolution.

‍

This transformation was also accompanied by an update of the fonts used on the site. In fact, after a careful study, we chose fonts that are more modern in terms of visual rendering, more accessible and more compatible with the CloudFire style.

‍

‍

New release of products in Cortex πŸ†•

‍

The changes were not limited only to the Cortex front end, but also affected the products themselves.

‍

In fact, in recent months, we have introduced several new features:

‍

  • Veeam Cloud Platform βœ… Available with a new user interface for greater ease of use. Activating and reserving cloud spaces for your off-site backups with Veeam Backup Resources, preparing Disaster Recovery plans and requesting Veeam Rental Licenses has become even easier.
  • Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 ♻️ Protect Microsoft 365 data by storing it off-site securely, completely as a Service in the CloudFire infrastructure. Get advanced control and visibility by monitoring and managing your M365 backup, and meet every recovery need with the Restore Portal.
  • 3CX ☎️ Deploy and automatically provision a dedicated instance to host your 3CX PBX in the cloud, upgrade from V18 to V20 of 3CX thanks to an updated and improved user interface.
  • Talky Time Direct Routing πŸ“ž Activate and synchronize the Microsoft Teams domain faster, easier and more securely, especially for domains protected by Microsoft's Multi-Factor Authentication.

CloudFire Offline πŸ“Ή

‍

In addition to the online news, this quarter was also important for the offline component of CloudFire.

We actively participated as a sponsor in MSP Day 2024 at the Pala Congressi in Riccione. These were two intense days in which we met new professionals in the sector, greeted partners with whom we have been collaborating for some time, explored new opportunities and technologies together and tried to spread the approach and essence of CloudFire!

‍

‍

We then celebrated the Tenth birthday Than Kubernetes Organizing Our First Tech Toast meetup And inaugurating the group Cloud Expert Reggio Emilia!

This group will represent a container of moments and places where those who live and breathe the cloud and its technologies on a daily basis can discuss, give voice to their ideas, even those in their infancy, and share successes and challenges in a constantly evolving environment.

‍

We are sure that real innovation comes from the community. So, for upcoming events, keep an eye on this Page.

‍

The next Tech Toast will focus on”NetworkingΒ² with K8s”. Do you want to have your say? Sign up now!

This second quarter of 2024 was definitely a period of significant transformation for CloudFire, but it definitely didn't end there. We will continue to evolve to offer the best cloud solutions and technologies to meet your needs.
