Futurion modernizes its business model, transforming how it serves customers, scales operations, and grows business. All without disruption.
Futurion built its FuturCast forecasting platform to serve large, long-term clients. And for years, delivered it through on-prem installs, annual licenses, and minimal internal IT. And while the model was stable, it couldn’t scale.
Going SaaS was essential, but it required turning their own operations upside down, without forcing change on their customers.
Futurion’s shift to cloud-based delivery was already underway. But internal resources were stretched; they needed a partner to take over day-to-day operations. And then, help build a multi-tenant SaaS foundation that could support long-term growth.
The real challenge: modernize the product without breaking customer contracts or introducing operational risks. Any shift had to feel invisible to their users; it was critical their partners understood this.
When Futurion engaged us in 2019, most of their customers were still on single-tenant environments, delivered manually. Their team needed immediate support first, and a long-term growth roadmap second. Together, we agreed on a phased approach:
Phase 1: Dedicated SaaS environments (2019)
Phase 2: Flexible Multi-Tenant Architecture on AWS (2024)
This phased approach let Futurion protect existing revenue while evolving their platform for broader market reach and better margins.
Since partnering with us, Futurion has fully transitioned to SaaS delivery and onboarded new customers, without compromising performance.
But more than that, they have unlocked new access to markets that were previously out of reach. By reducing their costs, they can now bring their powerful forecasting tools to small businesses, aligning their technology directly with their purpose.
