About

If you are on this page chances are you want to know who we are and why we are here. And, perhaps how we got here and what we can do for you.

Sounds like a lot to expect from one page doesn’t it? Well here goes…

Who we are

Pick Cloud was founded by Mark Pick, who comes with almost a lifetime of experience in the MultiValue arena. Pick whose name is synonymous with MultiValue thanks to his father Dick Pick, who is widely credited as a founding father of MultiValue software, is commonly recognized as an expert in the Pick arena.

Why we are

One of the reasons we went into the cloud business is we saw that clients were spending thousands of dollars in advance for a server and configuration they thought they would need in the future when they could have been spending a fraction of the cost for what they needed right now. The great thing about the cloud is that you can increase resources quickly when you need them and reduce them when you don’t. AND you are only paying for what you use when you use it.

How we got here

We heart MultiValue and were so confident that the cloud was a perfect fit that Pick Cloud was founded. We also want to preserve and rejuvenate MultiValue since it is near and dear to our hearts.

Our focus has been MultiValue and cloud since day 1. We believe cloud and software as a service are the way forward for MultiValue and have modeled our whole business around it. We have and always will be in the cloud business. Cloud is literally in our name.

Testimonials

Thanks Pick Cloud for your help in getting our development server set up, it was just what we needed!! We didn’t need to worry about purchasing hardware and software. We paid only for that we needed and when we were done, we didn’t need to get rid of the hardware. The whole process was seamless from beginning to end.

Frank Hanshaw

It was magic. All the best stuff is always magic. It was the most painless server migration I have ever been a part of. We never considered any other provider. There was just something about Pick Cloud we knew would be the best way.

Nora Nevers, Programmer Analyst

Pick Cloud really saved our bacon. If it weren’t for Mark’s team we wouldn’t be in the position we are today after our server crashed.

Sharon Daniel, VP and CFO

As a Rocket reseller, we needed a cloud provider that was secure, reliable, responsive, and affordable that we could count on. I collaborated with Pick Cloud to move several of my clients to the cloud. With Pick Cloud, you have a system that is more reliable – up all the time and secure, a perfect fit for anyone considering a cloud option for their PICK environment.

Jerry Dehnel, Owner

Pick Cloud has enabled us to focus on the important task of running our business instead of wasting our time focusing on technology. We moved our headquarters from California to Texas and never missed a beat!

Phil Deniston, President

Pick Cloud is perhaps the best decision we made when deciding to move to the cloud. With few MultiValue cloud vendors to choose from, Pick Cloud was by far the most cost effective. We are beyond delighted with their service and attention to detail. In addition to being incredibly easy to work with, Pick Cloud has saved us time, money and headaches.

Dennis Heit, CTO

We use OpenQM DBaaS to develop our application. Access and reliability is never an issue. We can focus on our application not the hardware behind it. The cost to start is minimal and we can scale our application and business as needed.

Nancy Calderone, CIO

Our decision to move to the cloud was the perfect solution to our rising support costs, aging machine, and complexity of securely connecting from a remote location. Now we have state of the art hardware (and the improved speed that comes with it), predictable and consistent costs and we can securely connect from anywhere. Pick Cloud was the natural choice for taking us from our slow, aging Pick/MultiValue system to the cloud.

Steve Henkel, Director of Information Systems

We have been a client for over 8 years and have always been pleased with the support response times as well as the results of the projects they have helped us with. We have moved all of our applications to the cloud and couldn’t be happier!
