Software: the centre of our attention
We're making our core competence work better for planet and people.
Why sustainable software matters
The Information and Communications Technology (ICT) sector generates over 2% of global greenhouse gas emisssions, and this is rapidly increasing. Visma has hundreds of software products contributing to those emissions – through the technology powering them, their design, and their use.
How can we develop and maintain our products with as few emissions as possible? The answers might surprise you.
Our footprint, firmly planted in metrics
Visma uses data centres from all three of the major cloud providers: Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and Amazon Web Services. Each provider offers a dashboard with metrics on data centre performance, including carbon footprint.
Public cloud, public gain
Modern businesses need data centres to host their applications and data. But demand is increasing every year, and data centres could use 20% of global electricity by 2030. How are we reducing our share?
Our software for environmental sustainability
This is how we help customers track and reduce their impact on the environment.
