Use case typeFarm managementUpdated Jun 13, 2026

Jucker Farm AG in Switzerland modernized its operations by adopting Microsoft Azure and Office 365, transitioning from a traditional fruit farm to an innovative agri-tourism destination. Facing challenges with outdated infrastructure and rapid business growth, the farm sought a digital solution to boost efficiency, collaboration, and mobility across multiple locations. The transition enabled a bring-your-own-device policy and cloud-based work, significantly enhancing employee flexibility. With digital tools, staff were able to work remotely, support thousands of daily visitors, and streamline event management across four sites. Vision-inside AG helped implement the solution, making processes more efficient and reducing ICT costs. The farm's digital journey also enabled expansion into new business streams and laid the groundwork for further regional and international innovations.
