Find out how Essential Tech worked with BallyCara to create a hybrid cloud solution that combines the benefits of the cloud while maintaining some legacy features.

Founded in 1983, BallyCara is a charitable organisation that provides residential aged care, home care and retirement living for members of the Queensland community. The organisation is recognised as an innovative leader in quality care and accommodation for older Australians and delivers significant community health, wellbeing and social benefits to older people through in-home support, community engagement and Wellness Programs.
