Mecalux software solutions in the cloud

More agile and flexible warehouse management powered by cloud computing technology

Lower costs, faster deployment and maximum scalability

Mecalux’s software solutions, including Easy WMS and Easy DOM, are available in the SaaS (software as a service) model — fully deployed in the cloud. This setup allows systems to run and store data securely on external servers, eliminating the need for on-site infrastructure. With SaaS, users can access the software from any internet-connected device, without the need to handle maintenance, updates or technical operations.

Compared to on-premise solutions (hosted on the client’s own servers), SaaS deployments are quicker, easier and more cost-effective. Mecalux also ensures an optimised environment by managing the technical infrastructure and configuring all connected devices: workstations, RF scanners and other system hardware.

Benefits of Easy WMS cloud deployment

One of the key advantages of Easy WMS’s SaaS model is that the interface and capabilities are identical to the on-premise version — but without the costs that come with hosting and maintaining the system on internal servers.

• Initial investment. The cloud-based version of Easy WMS is offered through a monthly subscription model, unlike the on-premises version, where clients must cover the upfront cost of perpetual licenses, server hardware and software maintenance. SaaS pricing is more flexible and significantly reduces internal resource and IT support costs, as the provider handles most of these responsibilities.
• Scalability. SaaS solutions can be easily scaled up or down depending on business needs, whereas on-premise systems call for long-term planning and are less suited for fast-growing companies. Clients can adjust Easy WMS licenses based on product demand, warehouse staffing levels and other market-specific needs.
• Implementation. SaaS deployment does not require installing servers on-site, speeding up the roll-out and shortening the implementation timeline. This allows the Mecalux team to focus on functional configuration and operational go-live, ensuring a faster, more efficient launch.
• Maintenance and support. With the SaaS model, clients rely minimally on their internal IT teams for system maintenance and support (their involvement is typically limited to validation reviews and customisation). Mecalux handles availability and security, eliminating the burden of IT management for the client.
• Updates. In on-premise setups, the client’s IT team is responsible for planning, deploying and validating updates, requiring a considerable investment in time and personnel costs. In contrast, SaaS systems are updated continuously and with far less effort.
• Security. On-premises solutions demand extra time and resources to achieve high-level security. With Easy WMS in the cloud, users benefit from enterprise-grade protection. Mecalux’s cybersecurity experts monitor servers and network infrastructure, managing multiple layers of security at all times.
