Q2 Vice President of Hosting Jordan Hager details how the company’s partnership with Presidio since 2012 has been integral to its ability to deliver for customers, while also helping scale and simplify the business as its grown exponentially.
Since 2004, Q2 has provided digital solutions to banks and credit unions with a mission to empower financial institutions to deliver future-proof customer experiences, securely. Q2 integrates a financial institution’s legacy technology into a single cloud-based platform, powering the next generation of digital banking services. The company has been at the forefront of the digital banking revolution, beginning when the concept was still in its infancy. The Q2 guiding philosophy: Technology is the great equalizer.
Q2 relies on Presidio’s PRISM offering to optimize its cloud portfolio in a way that allows Hager and his team to spend time strategically rather than mired in cloud administration and management.
PRISM is a fully automated and managed AWS cost optimization offering from Presidio, the only of its kind to provide white glove service with a locked-in discount percentage. Presidio takes the day-to-day management of AWS Savings Plans and Reserved Instances off Q2’s plate, allowing the company to get the most out of its cloud investment while removing all the risk associated with costly unused instances.
Additionally, Presidio supports Q2’s growth strategy through hardware procurement, vendor selection and best-in-class professional services.
“Indicative of the way the partnership has worked over time, we’re not (spending cycles} looking at vendors,” said Hager. “We’re looking at a partner that unlocks the capability across multiple vendors. Being able to deliver value to customers doesn’t happen by virtue of moving to public cloud. The real value comes through the innovation. Leveraging a solutions provider like Presidio and their PRISM program, but also with the access to AppDev and DevOps resources, allows us to accelerate that innovation.”
