There are many benefits of cloud computing services. Moving your business’ applications to the cloud can provide increased security, accessibility and compatibility across all of your employees’ devices–and large cost savings. By moving to the cloud, your business applications reside on the large, secure servers at the protected data centers of a national technology company like Microsoft or Amazon. These server environments include redundancies making cloud data significantly more secure than small business on-site hosting arrangements. Everyday, more new cloud computing companies introduce applications and services that offer new functionalities to your team members while residing on their own servers.

Outside of cloud-based applications, the cloud is an increasingly integral part of backing up your business data and being able to get back online quickly in the case of a disaster. The best solutions are ‘hybrid’ solutions that have your data backed up on a local appliance at your business site and also redundantly backed up as cloud data at a secure, remote data center. Should disaster occur, your data will be safe and your business can actually work on a virtualized environment in the cloud while your network is repaired.
