Benefits of moving to the cloud
It’s time to move to the cloud.
It is no secret that small and medium businesses (SMB) are the backbone of the UK’s economy. They provide job opportunities for over 60% of the population and serve as an engine for our country’s growth and innovation. Not every organisation can be GlaxoSmithKline or Coca Cola but remember most of today’s multi-billion-pound businesses had very humble beginnings.
There can be multiple criteria’s used to classify a small business or medium enterprise including capital investment, annual revenue, types of employees, or scale or type of operations so this means that even a small business may need enterprise sized IT resources, and this is where cloud computing can really support your organisation. The Cloud is one of the few high-end technologies that is equally accessible to every size of business, removing the entry barriers for SMBs that they may find with non-cloud products on volume licensing where overall size still has advantages – So cloud computing is a great leveller.
Below, we highlight the benefits for the use of cloud both in the short term in quick win scenarios as well as aiming for those longer-term strategic goals.
