6 Ways the Cloud Improves Business Efficiency
Traditional on-site storage solutions are often too expensive to operate and scale. Here are six reasons why cloud storage is the wave of the future.
- Embolden business growth.
Nearly 74% of tech Chief Financial Officers (CFOs) believe cloud computing has the most measurable impact on their business.
- Solve big challenges.
More than 1,000 IT buyers state the top benefits of moving to the cloud, include:
- Anywhere access to data (42%)
- Enhanced disaster recovery (38%)
- Greater flexibility (37%)
- Reduced burden on IT (36%)
- Bolster security.
Reputable cloud providers enforce strict protocols. That’s why many U.S. government agencies store sensitive data on the cloud.
- Enhance flexibility.
Cloud service providers can spread out expenses with subscription payment models.
- Build competitiveness.
The cloud allows companies to quickly respond to customer needs, make changes to supplier-scheduled deliveries and gain consistent access to essential information. That’s why 88% of growing businesses use at least one cloud service.
- Expand scalability.
Companies can easily broaden the size, storage and processing power of their servers to meet seasonal needs. The end result: financial savings and greater business efficiency.
