Cloud-based monitoring for healthcare and pharmaceuticals

There is little argument that innovations in cloud computing have had a massive impact on the way all sorts of organisations function. Streamlining the ways in which people access and interact with business data, opening up new channels for collaboration and remote working, introducing opportunities to work from almost any device – the benefits have an impact in many aspects of operations.

Whatever your business' reasons for investigating cloud solutions, you're certainly not going to be alone. According to Gartner, over US$1 trillion in IT spending will be affected in some way by the transition to the cloud by 2020. For industries that demand careful management of conditions through temperature data loggers – such as healthcare and pharmaceutical – the cloud can help to reduce the risk of contaminated or compromised research.

Clearing up the cloud

Perhaps the most important benefit of the cloud – as far as health and pharmaceutical organisations are concerned – comes down to flexibility. Where researchers and medical professionals were once tied to their laboratory to ensure their materials were accurately monitored and managed, nowadays, as long as there is an internet connection at both ends, fluctuations in conditions can be observed from essentially anywhere.

Testo has adopted the innovations allowed by cloud computing into its Saveris 2 temperature and humidity monitoring and data logging system, making it easier for healthcare organisations to keep tabs on their research projects, samples and materials. 

Testo's cloud solution

Here at Testo we have temperature and humidity monitoring solutions suitable for healthcare and pharmaceutical organisations of all sizes, so it makes sense that we offer cloud storage options to match. For smaller facilities, or those businesses with less-intensive monitoring needs, our basic cloud tier has much of the essential functionality required to keep track of conditions, including email alarms and data storage for up to three months.

For a more robust cloud solution, the type required by larger organisations, the advanced tier offers storage of up to one year, multiple user accounts and options for additional SMS alerts to ensure no fluctuations in temperature and humidity go unnoticed. 

Cloud-based systems have an array of benefits for all types of businesses, but there are few industries where improved monitoring systems can literally be a matter of life and death. Speak to Testo today about how Saveris 2 could improve your organisation's monitoring capability.
