Getting started with Nilead

Congratulations on choosing Nilead as your Digital Platform. Nilead Platform contains several core components that empower businesses to become more productive and grow efficiently.

The reason behind the platform

Users nowadays expect much more from websites than just information listing, they want to interact with the businesses online to get what they want and they want to be communicated on a personal level. Businesses also need to achieve more on their websites, they want to be able to do online sales, manage customers' relationship, provide online support, engage in meaningful conversations with customers directly on their websites.

There are many softwares out there but they either offer just a single feature (and thus require additional work to integrate) or offer too much (and thus require steeper learning curve).

1. Productivity efficiency

Hosting & Maintenance

Nilead is provided as a Software as a Service (SaaS). SaaS is sometimes referred to as "on-demand software".

Maintaining a secured and performant website is a lot of work, it requires highly-skilled experts in various areas (hosting, software, system, security, networking, etc...). With SaaS model, your website and the whole platform that powers your website are hosted and maintained by Nilead on our global data centers. We help you to focus on your business by taking care of these things for you:

1. Maintenance: we ensure that the platform software, server's operating system and related pieces of softwares required to run the website and services are up-to-dated with latest security and stability patches.
2. Backups: we ensure that your website's code and your data are always backed-up and ready for recovery in cases of disaster or business's requirements.
3. Support: our monthly/annually packages include both hosting and technical support. You can rest assured that there will be someone there to help when things go wrong.
4. Features: we regularly update our platform to add new features, these features become available to all our clients. Your website and the platform that powers your website is constantly updated to keep up with technology changes.
5. Accessibility: we can setup your website closer to your target audience to make it load faster for them. We have data centers in Asia (Singapore, Japan), Europe (Frankfurt, London), and North America (New Jersey, Silicon Valley, Toronto).
