COMPLEMENTARITY

FlowFactor is part of the Cronos Group, and FlowFactor strongly believes when companies collaborate, the sum is greater than the individual parts. The complementarity between the services and products of different companies is self-evident. Through collaboration we can offer our clients a ‘one-stop-shop’, meaning we can handle the complete process from problem to solution.

In our eyes, being able to choose for the right expertise, technology and experience at the right time is of utmost importance in the quickly evolving technological landscape of today. IBM investing in Red Hat, one of the world’s leading open-source companies, proves that it also believes in the power of cooperation. Open source, and the strong developer community behind it, shows the increased speed at which solutions see the light of day and are rolled out.

Additionally, with Red Hat’s OpenShift and IBM’s Cloud Paks a new leap towards further modernization has been made. FlowFactor recognizes the positive impact of collaboration and complementarity because on your own it is practically impossible to be quick and agile when supporting customers.

EVANGELISATION & IMPLEMENTATION

Convinced by the power of the IBM-portfolio, we try to evangelize this conviction and embed IBM technology as much as possible into the diverse solutions of the Cronos group ventures. With success! We make use of almost the entire IBM-offering, with amazing payoffs for our clients. Together with IBM and the rest of the Cronos group we worked on an ecosystem that ensures that we can help our clients from start till finish throughout the entire life cycle, from problem identification to implementation and management.
