Why Nutanix for CGI

We’d like to help CGI balance reliability with the flexibility to strengthen your customer relationships. Here’s how Nutanix can act as a trusted advisor and partner to each of your key stakeholders.

Intelligence for CGI IT leaders

You can see the insights spread across your clouds. All that’s missing is a path between them. Your existing consumption model might be making it too expensive to scale or it could be that increased complexity would make you a target for cyberattacks. But with Nutanix, CGI IT leaders can connect intelligence from all over the business – with OPEX service models and zero trust security.

Freedom for CGI managers

Much of your team’s time is spent keeping the IT running, scaled and secured. But with so many technologies, admin tools and vendors involved, it’s a task fraught with complexity and risk. Allow Nutanix to free up time to focus more on growth – without getting locked in to legacy infrastructure. See how we can help CGI managers work with the tools of their choice to deliver the services and experiences customers are calling for. There’s also potential for attracting and retaining employees – incentivised by access to emerging technologies and resources.

Inspiration for CGI IT administrators

You’re not the only one who sees more promise in operating an on-premises cloud-like experience – you’re just in the best position to make it happen. With Nutanix, CGI IT administrators will find there’s plenty more potential to unlock their talent in their role and beyond. An intuitive interface relieves the burden of administration by providing a single pane of glass, while automation frees experts from routine or time-consuming tasks – allowing tech specialists to dedicate more skill and energy to activities that will generate real business value.
