No, it is not absolutely necessary for foodforecast to have its own server access. However, in many cases it can significantly facilitate and optimize our collaboration. In this article, we explain the advantages of such access as well as the alternatives and their potential limitations.
Why having your own server access is an advantage
If you grant foodforecast direct server access, we can react more quickly and efficiently to necessary changes, adjustments or updates. Such access enables us to carry out technical tasks directly and without detours. This is particularly important when time-critical adjustments are required or unforeseen problems occur.
Having our own access also reduces the workload for both sides: Instead of coordinating again for each update or adjustment via a remote service such as TeamViewer, we can take action independently and immediately. This not only saves time, but also minimizes the risk of misunderstandings or delays in communication.
Alternatives: Access via TeamViewer and similar solutions
If you do not wish to provide your own server access, we can of course also obtain access via TeamViewer or similar tools during a meeting. In this case, you would have to grant us access again each time a change or update is required. Although this process is possible, it can be cumbersome in the long term and lead to delays. Particularly in the case of regular updates or the implementation of new features, this could require increased coordination effort.
It is therefore advisable to assess the frequency and scope of the required interventions before deciding on this solution. In some cases, it may be sufficient to limit access to isolated meetings. In other situations, especially for larger projects or continuous development, direct access is far more practical.
Security aspects
We understand that direct access to your server is a matter of trust and security. At foodforecast we place the highest value on the protection of your data and systems. All access is carried out in accordance with strict data protection guidelines and only by authorized and qualified employees. On request, we can jointly define security measures to optimally secure access to your server.
Having your own server access is not a mandatory requirement for working with foodforecast. However, it simplifies many processes and can reduce costs in the long term. Ultimately, it is up to you to decide how you want to organize access.
