Ricoh Hong Kong is a document management solutions and IT services provider that needed to evolve its product portfolio.

Find out how Ricoh implemented a hybrid, multi-cloud deployment to secure the large volumes of data transfer for its Smart Backup-as-a-Service.

Taking this step allowed Ricoh to transform its business towards building additional SaaS applications to meet changing market demands, scale its service delivery, and increase customer adoption of its new Backup-as-a-Service and Cloud Workflow services.
