Are you looking to move to the cloud? Cloud solutions have become an increasingly popular option for organizations due to the many benefits that can be reaped. Some of the benefits of adopting the cloud include the lack of need for hardware or maintenance, easier collaboration, greater prevention of data loss, and more. Nowadays, a variety of services are offered through the cloud; these services are typically offered on a subscription basis. If you’re on the fence as to whether or not you should adopt a cloud-based solution at your organization, here are some business challenges that a cloud solution can help you overcome.

With more and more businesses adopting cloud technology and moving their systems to hosted servers, your company has likely thought about if it is the best option for you as well. However, there are a number of things you need to consider before deciding if this is the right transition for your company. This blog will cover a few questions to ask yourself and your selected provider before making a decision.

If you are like most businesses, you have probably given the Cloud and Cloud-based or hybrid business solutions some serious thought. The benefits of Cloud technology, after all, are irrefutable; decreased costs, increased accessibility, improved business flexibility, and convenient data storage capabilities all make up a strong argument for Cloud technology cases.

Have you heard the term public cloud? Cloud computing can be described as public clouds, private clouds, or a mix of both. Here's what each means - and why you shouldn't worry if your business uses a public cloud.

Whether it is to do with fear and uncertainty or whether the on-premise or anti-cloud enthusiasts are propagating false information, there are currently a number of myths regarding cloud computing security that need to be debunked. 

Cloud-based business intelligence has reached the point where it’s no longer a question of if you will join the cloud, but when. According to Forbes, 78% of business owners plan to switch to the cloud in the next year for their business intelligence data needs. That same number, 78%, plan to increase their use of cloud computing for BI data storage. Clearly, the cloud isn’t just a great idea - for many businesses, it’s as integral to how they run their operations as a telephone and internet connection.

The decision to make the leap of faith into what seems like many jumping on the cloud bandwagon, would seem daunting at first. Of course that would mean having to replace your current on premise solution. However, despite the unnerving changeover, many companies have found the capabilities that cloud offers outweigh the adoption process.
