Why choose FCC over FDC?

When it comes to software versus hardware, there is one key concept to consider — the value of hardware is only as good as the software running on it.

Due to increased demand for hardware and potential quality issues with components, delivery times have shot up significantly in recent years. That is why we have focused on a cloud-based solution like Cloudics instead.

Cloud-based solutions are becoming increasingly popular due to their many advantages, such as effortless setup, lower operational costs, easy access from anywhere in the world, and quick updates without downtime or installation hassles.

Our forecourt cloud-based controller offers reliability, security and fast delivery times while giving you access to cutting-edge technology that will keep you ahead of the competition.

Cloudics FCC eliminates issues by running on secure cloud infrastructure with built-in redundancy for maximum uptime and reliability.

The benefits of the Cloudics FCC are undeniable — you install it once, and that’s it!

Last but not least, cloud-based solutions are designed for scalability, so they expand as your business does.

Cloudics benefits calculated per 100 stations:

  1. 180 000 € saved on hardware and maintenance.
  2. 50 000 km less travelled for maintenance work.
  3. Six hundred hours of less time spent on error identification.
  4. Up to 30% saving on staff expenses and salaries.
