When these are combined with a lack of available skilled labor and decreasing run lengths, the need for management teams to boost the digitization, automation and connectivity of their business becomes clear.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; color: black;\">\u201cNot only does the cloud address these demands, but it also delivers new freedoms to businesses, both in terms of their operations and processes and also in eradicating IT challenges that might stifle their passion for prepress.\u201d<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; color: black;\">Jan explained that recent disruptions have underlined the fact that utilizing cloud-based technology is not merely a future aspiration for businesses, but an urgent requirement to drive operational agility and resilience. \u201cWhile the opportunities to drive efficiency, deliver at scale and differentiate have moved businesses across the industry to embrace digitization, the adoption of cloud-based solutions has been an ongoing theme for some time,\u201d he said. \u201cNow more than ever, we need to use the cloud as a catalyst to help businesses become more resilient and customer focused, as well as enable them to differentiate, build and protect.\u201d<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; color: black;\">Cloud-based software delivers new freedom for businesses. With information no longer stored in one single location that can be susceptible to loss or corruption, it is accessible by all, regardless of location and ideal for single site operations now utilizing employee homeworking or for multi-site organizations. Freedom of data access also brings new flexibility, freeing up people to collaborate and speed up established processes. Removing the need for physical hard drives and on-site servers lowers operational and IT management costs, while cloud technology also offers scalable infrastructure and improved platform availability, ensuring optimal software performance for users.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; color: black;\">\u201cThe benefits of cloud computing to the packaging industry are endless,\u201d said Jan. \u201cToday is about further helping our customers on their digital transformation journey, enabling them to improve IT management and boost operational flexibility and efficiency. But tomorrow is about data analytics \u2013 uncovering insights about their business that enables them to become rapid innovators and truly differentiated to drive business performance.\u201d<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; color: black;\"><strong>Jan De Roeck concluded:<\/strong> \u201cAt Esko, we often talk about automation creating islands of success in a sea of waste, if not addressed on an organization-wide basis. For multi-site packaging suppliers, this is exactly the risk. Moving to cloud-based software and data management to support the digital transformation process overcomes this challenge and is the key to securing competitive advantage in what is today a highly competitive evolving market.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Esko has launched a new whitepaper \u2013\u00a0Cloud Freedom \u2013 delivering operational efficiency, data security and flexibility for print and packaging suppliers.\u00a0This latest tool follows the successful launch of the company&#8217;s Digital Maturity Model program in 2020 designed to help management teams meet the growing need to strategically address business digitization, automation and connection.
