Tally on Cloud & Tally on VPS
Run your TallyPrime from anywhere – securely, reliably and with the right performance for your team size. Bison Infosolutions helps you choose and deploy the best option for your business: Tally on Cloud for small to mid-sized teams and Tally on VPS for organisations with more than 10 users or heavy workloads.
Which option suits you?
- 1–10 concurrent users – Tally on Cloud (shared or semi-dedicated VM)
- 10+ concurrent users – Tally on VPS / Dedicated Cloud Server
- Multi-branch, CAs, large inventory or high reporting load – usually better on VPS
We also help you combine TallyPrime Gold and TallyPrime Server for very high concurrency and speed on VPS.
Tally on Cloud vs Tally on VPS – At a Glance
Tally on Cloud
Your TallyPrime license and data are hosted on a secure cloud server. You log in from anywhere using a lightweight client, browser or Remote Desktop.
Best for: 1–10 users, growing SMEs, CAs, consultants, branches.
- Shared or semi-dedicated virtual machine (VM)
- Quick deployment, no hardware purchase
- Centralised, secure data with daily backups
- Cost-effective per-user or per-VM plans
Tally on VPS / Dedicated Cloud Server
A dedicated virtual private server (VPS) or cloud instance reserved for your organisation. Ideal when you have many users or need higher control and performance.
Best for: 10+ users, heavy data, many simultaneous logins.
- Dedicated resources (CPU, RAM, storage) only for your company
- Optimised for 10+ concurrent users & TallyPrime Server
- Freedom to run other business apps alongside Tally
- Greater control on security policies & customisation
How Tally on Cloud Works
Technical Flow (Simple View)
Remote Hosting
Your Tally application and company data reside on a secure cloud server in a datacentre – not on your local desktop or office server. The server is optimised for Tally performance, uptime and security.
Client Access
You use a client device (laptop, desktop, tablet or mobile) to log in to the hosted Tally environment over the internet, via:
- Remote Desktop (RDP) client
- Browser-based access (where supported)
- Thin clients in branches
Virtual Machine (VM)
You get access to a virtual desktop or application window where TallyPrime runs. It feels like working on a local PC, but everything is actually executing on the cloud VM.
Printing, Export & Backup
Tally prints to your local/network printers, and you can export reports to Excel/PDF. Daily automated backups are taken from the server side, reducing risk of data loss.
Security & Monitoring
Access is protected with username/password, optional dual-factor authentication, firewall rules, role-based rights inside Tally, and server-side antivirus and monitoring.
Key Benefits for Your Business
- Anytime, Anywhere Access: Work from office, home, factory, warehouse or on the go, as long as you have internet.
- Device & OS Independence: Use Tally on Windows, macOS, Linux, thin clients or even mobile devices (via RDP).
- Real-time Collaboration: Multiple users (accounts, stores, management) work on the same data simultaneously, with proper user-level rights.
- Enhanced Security: Data stays inside the cloud server, not scattered on individual PCs. Encryption, login controls and restricted access reduce risk of leakage or ransomware.
- Automatic Backups: Daily and scheduled backups, with restore support, protect you against accidental deletion, corruption or hardware failure.
- Cost-Effective: No need for heavy local servers, UPS, cooling or dedicated IT staff. You pay for the cloud resources you actually use.
- Scalable: Start with a few users and increase CPU, RAM, storage or user count as your business grows – without re-installing everything.
Tally on VPS – Recommended for 10+ Users
When your organisation has more than 10 concurrent Tally users, or you run complex reports and heavy data volumes, a dedicated VPS (Virtual Private Server) or cloud instance is usually the best option.
In this setup, Bison provisions an isolated server environment for you – with guaranteed CPU, RAM and SSD storage – and configures it specifically for TallyPrime / TallyPrime Server and your other business applications.
Why VPS for 10+ Users?
- Better performance when many users open vouchers and reports at the same time.
- Freedom to install TallyPrime Server for improved concurrency & speed.
- Higher control on OS version, security policies, login rules and maintenance window.
- Can run other tools (file sharing, MIS, backup agents, 3rd-party connectors) on the same VPS.
Typical Use Cases
- Manufacturing / trading companies with multiple branches and departments.
- Enterprises with 10–50+ Tally users logged in together.
- Organisations needing strict data segregation and compliance.
- CAs and accounting firms serving many clients centrally.
Sample VPS Configuration (Indicative)
- 4–8 vCPU high-frequency cores
- 8–32 GB RAM (depending on users and data)
- Fast SSD / NVMe storage with RAID / replication
- Windows Server OS licencing
- Static public IP, firewall & VPN options
- Daily + weekly snapshot backups
Exact configuration is finalised after understanding your user count, data size, peak timings, customisations and integration needs.
