For those that were already familiar with the advantages that cloud services and cloud computing in particular has to offer, it seems like these are a logical technological step. Doubtless they will cut costs by trimming IT overheads but there are many other advantages to the whole system from improved efficiency to greater security when it comes to the question of important data.
The main concern for any organisation is keeping data safe and for an IT manager, disaster recovery systems are vital to the smooth operation of business. The practice of cloud computing fits with this requirement perfectly as the risk of losing data is eradicated by using the 'cloud' or external server. Lengthy and complicated back up procedures become a thing of the past and data in turn becomes completely safe.
As an additional benefit, employees from within the company can access information more easily no matter where they are in the world. Irrespective of whether they are using a PC, laptop or mobile phone to access the internet, company information can be used provided that device is included in the network. With easy access, working becomes streamlined and much easier for the individual employee who doesn't have to pre load information onto their system.
Storing less data on a computer also makes that individual device more productive and reduces the risk of it slowing down or even crashing beyond repair. Heavy files and photographs can be stored on the external server making company equipment more efficient and less prone to issues further down the line.
Lost data is the biggest concern for any individual or organisation but cloud computing deals with all of these issues on a permanent basis. It reduces the need for members of the company to transport sensitive information around on a laptop or portable storage device and that in turn removes any risk of theft which has become more and more commonplace.
Overall, cloud computing provides an all round solution for businesses of all sizes and those that have begun to implement it are reporting advantages across their organisations with no down sides whatsoever.
The system is flexible and highly cost effective and the improved 'up time' alone makes a business run more efficiently. When you add in the additional benefit of security then this really is a revolutionary new form of outsourcing that has pluses for a business right across the board.
