Cologne, 15 July 2010 – Tax consultants can now manage all of their administration tasks via Internet. Stollfuss Medien offers the industry solution Stotax as a cloud service which is accessed via common web browsers. The software vendor and specialist tax and commercial law publisher is cooperating with the outsourcing provider Pironet NDH Datacenter. The cloud solution supports all of the processes for human resources management and accounting, tax accounting and tax office management.

Pironet NDH Datacenter is responsible for the efficient and secure operation of the industry solution at its high-performance data centers. The business cloud by Pironet NDH, aimed at meeting the needs of small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), provides the application with the required processing power and storage capacity. The cloud service "Capacity on Demand" generates an abstract IT infrastructure pool from a physical server farm, which flexibly provides virtual server resources (GHz and RAM) for application operation.

No installation or operation costs
Customers who choose the cloud model save investment and follow-up costs for operation while increasing the security of their customer data. The operation of software on in-house servers, including installation, maintenance and continual system updates, is often a costly endeavor, especially for tax consultancies. The cloud approach provides for simpler processes and cost savings. Customers consistently carry out their work based on the current laws. Another benefit: mobile users can access the software – and all reports – from anywhere. All you need is a computer with Internet access or an Apple iPad.

Improved data security for tax office systems
The cloud computing approach also offers support in the area of IT security: tax offices have automatic access to the security standards of a professional data center. Pironet NDH Datacenter not only protects the customer systems from external attacks, but also prevents data loss with synchronous data mirroring and daily backups.

Integration with office and email systems in the cloud
Tax offices can access additional business applications via the Pironet NDH business cloud. Stollfuss Medien offers its customers online models of the office suite Microsoft Office and the email software Outlook.
