Buttonwood was formed in 2012 when cloud was compelling but lacked the maturity to truly disrupt enterprise IT. Benefits relating to increased agility were offset by complex consumption methods, poor operational control and the lack of financial transparency. At Buttonwood, we thrive on the disruptive nature of cloud, but we rail against proprietary access methods that result in vendor-lock. The team at Buttonwood have worked to develop the necessary products to help build and secure the hybrid enterprise with cloud choice, financial governance and operational control. Buttonwood aims to eliminate the cost and complexity associated with hybrid cloud architectures by focusing on open standards, beautiful design and radical simplicity!
