How to Run Your Accounting or ERP Software in the Cloud - Without Compromising Control, Performance, or Security

Short version: Windows-based accounting and ERP software such as Hashavshevet, Revachit, SAP Business One and Priority can run on a cloud server exactly as it runs today, with no change to how you work. Your team connects over Remote Desktop from any device, backups run daily and automatically, and the hardware headaches disappear. A typical cloud server costs from a few hundred shekels a month.

Hundreds of thousands of Israeli businesses use Windows accounting and ERP software. Most of it still sits on local PCs or a physical office server, which means physical dependency, backup problems, hardware failures and serious limits on remote work.

Why move your accounting software to the cloud?

1. Work from anywhere

Your team connects securely to the server from any device, whether an office PC, a laptop at home or a tablet, over RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol). No complicated VPNs and no emailing files between employees.

2. Daily backups and data security

On OMC.cloud you can schedule automatic daily backups of every critical folder, including accounting files, invoices and reports. Your data is also protected by firewall rules, strong passwords, IP-based access restrictions and even two-factor authentication.

3. No more technical headaches

No hardware failures, dead hard drives or system upgrades to worry about. We take care of the infrastructure so you can focus on your work.

4. Full control

The server is in the cloud, but you stay in control. Usernames, folders, permissions, printing and connections all stay exactly the way you are used to.

How does it work in practice?

Take an accounting office with 6 employees using Revachit and Klasar (a document management program). Instead of relying on an old server in the office, we:

1. Set up a Windows cloud server sized to your needs, typically 4–8 vCPUs, 16–32 GB RAM and fast SSD storage.
2. Install Revachit, upload your work files, and configure shared folders and printers.
3. Give each employee a personal username and password to connect over Remote Desktop.

Every change is saved in real time, just like working locally, but secured, backed up and reachable from anywhere.

What about Hashavshevet or SAP Business One?

The same principle applies. Any Windows software that does not require an exclusive local installation or hardware-bound licensing can run fully and smoothly in the cloud. Even heavier systems like SAP Business One, which need a SQL server, perform well when they get the right resources and a tuned environment.

When is the cloud a good fit?

• You run one or more systems and need every employee to reach them from anywhere.
• You are tired of local server crashes or cybersecurity threats.
• You are opening more branches or supporting hybrid work.
• You want backups, resilience and advanced protection without spending thousands on hardware.

How much does it cost?

Cloud server pricing depends on the specification, but it typically starts from a few hundred shekels a month. That is significantly cheaper than keeping a physical server, paying for power, external backup and ongoing maintenance. You can also scale up or down at any time, for seasonality or team growth, and pay only for what you use.
