The ultimate test: This is how we walk our talk

Business as usual in the Mediterranean

We like to say that Elastic Move was born in the cloud. To put our cloud-based work to the test, we packed our phones and laptops and took our work on the road. We spent a week in September in the Mediterranean, doing business as usual. Customer meetings, customer support, internal routines – an ordinary week in the life of Elastic Mobile.

How did we do it?

We were well prepared: Everything we do is cloud-based, and most of our meetings are already online. To be honest, we didn’t tell our customers about our change of scenery. Because we have complete confidence in the reliability of our cloud solutions, we dared to go ahead with this extreme test.

When we chose our location, reliable internet capacity was our top priority. However, we also tried disconnecting from the internet a few times during the week. The tests were a success. To manage our 24/7 support agreements, i.e. 24/7 standby duty, we made sure that support was always available in our “base camp”.

The results: A success!

We continuously measure a set of key performance indicators. When we look back at our Mediterranean workweek, the results far exceeded our high expectations. The only negative thing we can report is that the work environment wasn’t as good as our home office. On the other hand, we could take a dip in the pool during our lunch break. That was a welcome feature!
