CLOUD HOSTING

• We are proud to offer a bundled cloud hosted solution for sites that do not wish to have their system installed to specific machines in their practice. This is the perfect solution for practices that are very mobile or those that just do not want to worry about the ongoing maintenance of having the system on premise.
• We are also happy to work with any of the Australian certified hosting providers should you wish to arrange that outside of your relationship to Shexie. We have worked with many vendors over the years and can provide contact details should you require them.
• Should you wish to learn more about how a cloud hosted system could work for your practice please use our contact form and one of the team will be happy to discuss your practice requirements further.
