Section 3 of 10CTO Strategic Vision
The CTO's Strategic Vision
This hardware switch is the critical enabler for our next two major product launches. Building these on the cloud would be prohibitively expensive and offer a worse customer experience.
Product Advantages
| Product | CTO Advantage | ELI5 Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| WiseWare Business Workspaces | Premium Video Quality, Zero Cost | The ZimaBoard special video chip handles high-performance desktop streaming for free, delivering a fast, premium experience our rental-based competitors cannot match. |
| WiseCloud Home Hub | Family Powerhouse: Games, Movies, Collab | This hub handles family services. The hardware video encoding power is essential for smooth 4K movie streaming and fast retro game emulation. |
Boosting Our Entire Software Stack
The WiseWare Business Workspaces are fast, secure remote virtual desktops that our team and clients can access from anywhere. This hardware change provides a massive performance boost to our entire software stack:
- Axigen Mail: Our professional email server
- Nextcloud: Our private collaboration suite
- Krayin CRM: Our core sales and customer management tool
- Mautic: Our marketing automation platform
- Espo CRM: Our secondary CRM and business management tool
By moving from throttled, shared cloud servers to dedicated, high-speed hardware, the user experience will be transformed. The CRM will be instant, email searches immediate, and Nextcloud file syncing seamless.
