B1 Cloud Migration
Moving SAP Business One to the cloud doesn’t have to be disruptive – Third Wave handles every step of the transition. From planning and setup to data migration and go-live, your business keeps running without interruption. The five steps are laid out below.
B1 Cloud Migration
Five steps, all managed by Third Wave, and typically complete in about two months. Your team keeps working in the same SAP Business One from start to finish.
We review your current SAP Business One setup and the way your team uses it, then size an AWS environment to match: public or private tenant, SAP HANA or Microsoft SQL Server. You get a clear plan before anything moves.
Your SAP Business One database moves to the hosted environment as it is. No change to your data, no re-implementation, no new system to learn.
We validate the hosted system against the one you run today before anyone goes live, so the first day in the cloud looks like the last day on-premise.
Third Wave is on hand when your team switches over. Same interface, same workflows, minimal retraining, and access from any device from day one.
After go-live we manage, monitor and optimize the environment: patching, SAP Business One version upgrades, backups and disaster recovery, backed by the same team that runs our support services.
What's Included
Hosting is only part of it. Third Wave manages the environment so your SAP Business One stays fast, current and secure, and your team gets its time back.
Your SAP Business One runs on AWS infrastructure that Third Wave builds, sizes and manages, in the AWS Europe (London) region. There is no server to buy, patch or replace.
Choose a public or private tenant, and run SAP Business One on SAP HANA or Microsoft SQL Server. The environment is sized to your users and your database.
We watch the system and tune performance before a slowdown becomes a ticket. A Third Wave support plan is included, so the people who host your system are the people who support it.
Operating system patches and SAP Business One version upgrades are scheduled and applied for you. Hosted customers complete upgrades 76% faster.
Regular backups and a disaster recovery plan are part of the service, with the redundancy and failover of the cloud platform behind them.
99.995% uptime is written into the SLA, with zero security breaches across 1,600+ cloud users. The AWS platform carries 140+ compliance certifications, including ISO 27001, SOC and PCI-DSS, and supports CCPA, HIPAA and FedRAMP readiness.
Your SAP Business One license belongs to you and moves with you. Your data stays your data, unchanged by the move.
Every Third Wave add-on runs inside the hosted environment, including Bizweaver, ShipEasy, CreditCard, Forge and Versago. Forge and Versago open in a web browser from anywhere.
Desktop client users connect over a remote desktop session. The Web Client, Forge and Versago open in any browser. No VPN appliances to maintain, no server in a closet.
Is Cloud Right for You?
Cloud is the stronger starting point for most small and midsize businesses, but not every one. Here is how we think about it. For the longer version, read our cloud vs on-prem guides for mid-market leaders and for IT leaders.
If patching, backups and hardware refreshes are eating the week, hosting moves that work to Third Wave and gives the team back its time for the work that moves the company forward.
Every site and every remote manager reaches the same live system, without the latency and upkeep of VPN links to a server at head office.
When the next hardware refresh is on the horizon, hosting replaces a capital purchase with a predictable monthly operating expense. Our SAP Business One pricing guide explains how the cost model shifts.
Air-gapped or tightly regulated environments, and latency-sensitive links to local equipment, are the clearest cases. SAP Business One deploys either way, and a hybrid model keeps most of the cloud benefits where a single constraint applies.
Many businesses start on-premise and migrate to cloud as priorities change. SAP Business One supports both, so a later move does not mean a new platform.
