We are close to a 3 day weekend. Today we are going to give you some points to consider related to the cloud and if it is good for your small to medium business. Yet questions about the cloud still remain? Can it really deliver a boost in productivity? Is it easy to leverage in the right way? Will an upgrade in Internet connection speeds be required? Will that negate any cost savings? CMIT Solutions understands that the cloud is not a one-size-fits-all solution — and in many cases, it doesn’t fit at all. Consider these points before you consult an IT professional about exploring the cloud further: Acknowledge that hybrid solutions might make the most sense. For businesses that have adopted the cloud, a mix of remote and local infrastructure might make access to the information you need seamless, whether you’re on your PC, laptop, smartphone, or tablet. Understand that, in some cases, the cloud can help you save money. In the software realm, cloud offerings, or Software as a Service (SaaS), can often have the most immediate impact on a business. Need to run expensive packages like Microsoft Office or Adobe Creative Suite? Instead of paying hefty up-front costs, being stuck with only a few licenses, and losing valuable time to the lengthy installation and update process, services like Office 365 and Creative Cloud can afford you increased levels of productivity by providing up to five licenses for separate devices — and even potentially lower your monthly or annual costs. Our final post on this will be on Monday. Hope you have a safe and happy 4th of July!
