cloud computing for small businessCloud computing has become the preferred method of doing everything from managing projects to enhancing collaboration across multiple teams. According to Forbes, more than 50% of U.S. businesses have switched to the cloud, an option that has significant financial benefits for small and medium-sized businesses. From improved productivity to enhanced security, cloud computing is an ideal solution for growing businesses.

Streamline Operations

The move to cloud computing results in the ability to efficiently manage multiple aspects of business operation. When working within the cloud, team members are able to collaborate easily, reduce the time spent on repetitive tasks, and automate daily processes. As a result, small businesses achieve high levels of production while reducing unnecessary costs. 

Mobilize Collaboration

In order for a business to be successful, the ability to easily and quickly collaborate between teams is a must. Cloud computing has been a driving force behind workflow innovation, as more companies are instituting bring-your-own-device policies. Access to essential business data is available nearly anywhere with an internet connection, resulting in a mobilized, productive workforce.

Reduce Expenses

Between the ability to pay-as-you-go and the lack of additional hardware, cloud computing allows businesses to reduce overall expenses. At ITS, Inc., we’ve helped numerous companies enjoy financial relief after switching to a cloud-based solution. For small businesses on a budget, each dollar saved means a healthier bottom line.

 Eliminate Downtime

In any work environment, operational downtime prevents companies from providing a quality user experience, and this can result in lost sales. The unreliability of other business solutions poses the unpredictable threat of “going offline.” As a premier IBM business partner, we help small businesses eliminate downtime with cloud solutions. 

Maximize Security

Unlike other business solutions, working in the cloud is reliable and highly secure. Whether your business experiences a physical loss from a natural disaster or simply wants to limit unauthorized access to data, cloud computing ensures your information is secure. Between automated backups and diversified cloud storage solutions, small businesses can achieve the same level of security enjoyed by enterprises – without the additional cost.
