Why choose Swizzle?

Unlike most public cloud providers, our service is fully managed. Your applications and data are in New Zealand, in a facility we will walk you through.

Our staff manage your private cloud and work at the same time you do - so you can reach us when you need to.

About cloud computing

Public clouds like Amazon EC2 and friends offer resources on very large computing platforms in other countries, charging for use much the same as electricity and gas companies do.

On the up side there are no capital costs, no need to predict hardware requirements, and no staff to run the servers. There are however down sides to take into account. Most are about risk.

You have no control over where your applications and data are stored, you don't know who is running the show or who has access to your clients' private data.

New Zealand also has the tyranny of distance which means performance and reliability of the network between foreign servers and your desktop becomes a concern.

Swizzle private clouds

Our cloud solution uses the same technology as the big overseas players, except its all located in NZ under our direct control. Our technology and our people are visible to you.

We establish encrypted tunnels over the public Internet to form a seamless private network between your workplaces and servers located in our data centre.

Swizzle private clouds are an ideal solution for Kiwi businesses who want a fully managed solution with fixed monthly costs!
