Cloud Computing for Small Business
The advantages cloud based services bring to small and emerging businesses are huge.
‘The cloud simply means applications and services that people access via the internet instead of installing software on their own computers. If you’re online, you’re somewhere in the cloud.’
APTUS Advisory can help you, the small business owner, select and implement a cloud computing strategy.
Why do you need this? Some of the advantages are:
- Lowers the cost of setting up IT systems for your enterprise.
- Ease of data distribution
- Ease of data backup and recovery
- Access to your information and data anywhere anytime through web based applications
- Reduced effort and costs in maintaining and IT infrastructure
- Reduce costs on software licences as most cloud offerings are subscription-based and very cost effective.
- Increased and enhanced collaboration for you and your staff
- Ease and lower cost of communications
- The cloud offers reliability, so there is little need to worry about data recovery or losing valuable business data.
- You can use any computer in any location to access your work, not just one that has the software.
- If you have employees in several locations, they can more easily collaborate in the cloud than they would with individually stored files. They all can download, revise and save the same document that's stored in a single location online, and you never need to worry about on whose computer the latest version of a document resides.
