Now that the new year is in full swing, many companies are trying to make good on their resolutions to be more efficient, increase IT security, and save money wherever possible. Migrating your data to the cloud could hit all three of these points with one action. In today’s blog, we are examining the reasons why companies are migrating to the cloud and how it can be beneficial on many fronts.
Save Space
Using the cloud and cloud computing means businesses can save space by no longer needing to have a data center for storage. Not only can this free up space but it may mean an opportunity to move IT employees around to cover other more important needs.
Cost Savings
With the cloud, most cost structures are based upon paying only for what you use, therefore, no extra budgeting is needed. As the company grows, however, there is flexibility in being able to expand storage and computing. There is no need to purchase equipment, including either hardware or software nor the need to hire personnel to staff a data center with cloud computing.
Mobility
The cloud allows for superb mobility. With so many businesses mobile these days using smartphones and tablets, being able to access the cloud anywhere makes your business more flexible.
Always “On”
Most cloud providers are extremely reliable in providing their services, with many maintaining 99.99% uptime. The connection is always on and as long as workers have an internet connection, they can get to the applications they need from practically anywhere.
