Another reason to consider moving to the cloud…













On 2nd June 2012, an article was released on www.mashable.com about the relationship the cloud has with mobile applications.  Pretty much anyone in business has a smartphone.  They rely on mobile applications to function in their everyday lives.  Without them business and personal life would be less efficient than now.  Mobile apps have to sit on the cloud, because there simply isn’t enough data storage on your mobile phone.  This means apps can be accessed from anywhere on the world on any device.  According to Credit Suisse in 2014, over a billion smartphones will be sold and by 2016, it is predicted that over 10 billion smartphones will be connected.

So what does this mean for business?

We use an array of mobile devices to stay connected to the world.  In business, we might use our laptop, our tablet and our smartphone, but we need access to our applications at all times for efficiency and getting the job done.  If you move your business to the cloud, this means you can access your work whenever and wherever you are.  Over time most of the business functionality will be in the cloud and servers will slowly outdate.  Big data centres will house all servers and businesses will simply connect to a server located off-site.

We have clearly been told this is where technology is moving, so why remain stuck in an old clunky system, when you can move with the times and be ahead of your game.  You reduce your risk of system failure and increase your time efficiency.  Not to mention lowering your carbon footprint.  It’s easier to stay connected in your business with the cloud, and as technology develops, we will help you access the advanced stages of technology at all times.  Whether this is new and updated applications or simple advice on what you should plan for.

Don’t worry; we’ve got you covered.
