Enchanting Studio’s success has lead to more and bigger projects. Because of their origins as a small business, one of the biggest problems came from the fact that they were storing data on PCs and hard drives. Locally-stored files could only be accessed by one person at any one time, and were also hard to locate, resulting in lower efficiency and poor team collaboration.
The company had plans to expand the team in Hong Kong and Suzhou in the first half of the year, which required an agile and scalable IT solution.
