PART 1 WHAT ARE APPROVAL WORKFLOWS? 3

EVERY BUSINESS RELIES ON APPROVAL WORKFLOWS LIKE PURCHASE REQUISITIONS, SALES ORDERS, LEAVE APPROVALS, EXPENSE REPORTS AND EMPLOYEE ON-BOARDING TO CONDUCT ROUTINE, DAY-TO- DAY ACTIVITIES. 4

APPROVAL WORKFLOWS ARE FORMS FILLED IN BY EMPLOYEES, CUSTOMERS & PARTNERS THAT ARE ROUTED THROUGH THE ORGANIZATION FOR COMMENTS & SIGNATURES. THE ROUTING IS USUALLY NOT TOO COMPLICATED. VIEW EXAMPLES 5

APPROVALS ARE THE LIFEBLOOD OF YOUR BUSINESS. YET: THEY RE WORD/EXCEL/PDF FILES E-MAILED AS ATTACHMENTS. THEY CROWD ALREADY OVERFLOWING INBOXES. MANAGERS FORGET AND EMPLOYEESWASTE TIME CHASING DOWN APPROVALS. IF A SIGNATURE IS REQUIRED, IT MEANS PRINT, SIGN AND SCAN. THEY RE PRACTICALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO USE ON MOBILE. 6

IT S 2017!!! WE DON T PRINT DRIVING DIRECTIONS OR BOARDING PASSES ANYMORE. MORTGAGE DOCUMENTS CAN BE SIGNED ELECTRONICALLY. CLOUD IS HERE. EVERYONE HAS A SMART PHONE. GREEN IS ON EVERYONE S MIND. WHY ARE YOU STILL PRINTING AND EMAILING DOCUMENTS FOR APPROVALS & SIGNATURES? 7

DIGITIZE IN THE CLOUD AUTOMATE YOUR APPROVAL WORKFLOWS USING FREVVO S SECURE, CLOUD-BASED, MOBILE-READY PRODUCTS AND STOP WORRYING ABOUT THE ROUTINE STUFF. YOU LL SAVE TIME & MONEY AND INCREASE YOUR FOCUS ON CUSTOMERS. 8

WHAT DO I NEED? PART 2 PUBLIC OR PRIVATE CLOUD? 9

PUBLIC CLOUD REFERS TO RESOURCES (STORAGE, HARDWARE & APPLICATIONS) DEPLOYED BY A SERVICE PROVIDER, DELIVERED OVER THE INTERNET UNDER THE CONTROL OF THE SERVICE PROVIDER. YOU SHARE RESOURCES WITH OTHER CUSTOMERS. 10

PRIVATE CLOUD REFERS TO A CLOUD COMPUTING PLATFORM AND/OR APPLICATIONS DEPLOYED BEHIND THE CORPORATE FIREWALL UNDER I.T. CONTROL. YOU DO NOT SHARE RESOURCES WITH ANYONE ELSE. 11

SO, WHICH ONE IS RIGHT FOR ME? PUBLIC OR PRIVATE CLOUD? 12

PUBLIC CLOUD LIKELY TO BE LESS EXPENSIVE AND MORE RESILIENT. TURN RESOURCES ON/OFF ANYTIME AND TRY NEW THINGS QUICKLY. PAY ONLY FOR WHAT YOU USE. NOWADAYS, PUBLIC CLOUDS ARE OFTEN MORE SECURE THAN TRADITIONAL CORPORATE DATA CENTERS. 13

WHY PRIVATE CLOUD? REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS SUCH AS HIPAA AND THE RESULTING POTENTIAL LIABILITIES. INTEGRATION WITH EXISTING BUSINESS SYSTEMS BEHIND THE FIREWALL E.G. LEAVE APPROVAL TALKING TO AN HR SYSTEM. SINGLE SIGN ON AND/OR CUSTOM AUTHENTICATION PROTOCOLS. 14

FREVVO HAS BOTH SIMPLY SIGN UP ONLINE AND USE OUR SECURE PUBLIC CLOUD. DOWNLOAD, INSTALL BEHIND YOUR FIREWALL AND CREATE YOUR OWN SECURE PRIVATE CLOUD. EITHER WAY, YOU LL SEE MANY BENEFITS LIKE SELF-SERVICE AND MULTI-TENANCY. 15
