Making the decision to move from traditional hosting services and on-site software and storage solutions to cloud-based computing is an excellent decision for many businesses. However, like any technology, it does not always answer the problem or create a solution that is the right fit for every business.
The more a business relies on computing technology, including storage of data and access to data, the more likely it is that cloud-based computing is the right answer. Taking the time to consider how your current system is working and where there are areas for improvement will help you in making the decision to migrate or stay with the on-site software and storage option.
Storage Issues
The need for secure data storage is typically one of the biggest issues that face a business today. With cloud-based computing, the storage capacity in the cloud is virtually limitless, and the company only has to pay for the storage they use. This not only makes it practical but also cost-effective.
Access to Data and Software Applications
As companies move to remote work or hybrid work environments, it is more important than ever that data and software applications are accessible. The cloud allows authorized users access to data and applications from any internet-connected device.
For additional security, if required, private or hybrid clouds are available, but encryption and security protocols with public clouds make them highly secure. Security with cloud computing is easier to manage and monitor, while various security layers can be used to provide additional data protection.
