Streamlined, Secure, and Scalable—Everything You Need in Your Portal Solution

Managing a self-hosted web platform can be time-consuming, costly and complex. If you’re currently self-hosting Curator, migrating to our SaaS platform can unlock a world of advantages designed to make your analytics experience seamless and hassle-free, freeing your team to create further impact on your business.

Why Migrate to Curator SaaS?

1. Enhanced Performance and Reliability

  • High Availability: Enjoy uninterrupted access to your analytics, even during peak usage times.
  • Automatic Scaling: As your business grows, Curator SaaS grows with you, handling increased demands effortlessly.
  • Zero-Downtime, Automated Upgrades: Forget manual updates and downtime — we’ll handle it all in the background.
  • Self-Healing: Any technical hiccups are quickly resolved with built-in automated recovery systems.

2. Lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)

  • No costly web servers or infrastructure: Say goodbye to the cost and effort of maintaining web servers and associated infrastructure.
  • Reduced IT Burden: Free up your IT team to focus on strategic initiatives rather than day-to-day maintenance.

3. Security and Isolation

  • Each customer operates within their own isolated namespace, ensuring enhanced security and data privacy.
  • Rest assured that our SaaS platform adheres to best-in-class compliance and security standards.

4. Faster Support

  • Rapid Code Deployment: We are able to rapidly deploy code fixes to your dev environment and test your specific use case, ensuring that fixes are identified, tested and deployed faster than ever.
  • Standard Architecture: One primary driver of support requests are changes in self-hosted environments out of Curator’s control. These require lengthy investigation and often sechedule meetings with those with access. Moving to SaaS means that you are deployed in a standard environment that is thoroughly tested and managed by our teams.

How the Migration Process Works

We’ve designed the migration process to be as smooth and seamless as possible:

  • Consultation: We’ll start with a free consultation to assess your needs and create a migration plan tailored to your business.
  • Preparation: Our team will guide you through the steps to prepare your data and configurations.
  • Migration: Sit back while we handle the heavy lifting — moving your existing setup to Curator SaaS. We’ll need access to your admins so we can reconfigure your BI Platform integrations and your authentication up to match your current site.
  • Testing and Go-Live: Once the migration is complete, we’ll thoroughly test the environment before finalizing the transition.
