Cloud technology is becoming one of primary bases for business infrastructure. International Data Group’s research showed that 70% of businesses have at least one application in the cloud. Moreover, they revealed that businesses have big plans of moving analytics and data management to the cloud, creating new roles such as cloud engineers and cloud system administrators.
Cloud computing facilitates access for company’s information, programs and systems, allowing users, who might be employees or partners, access features and business data. Applications based on cloud technology and that can be accessed through web or an API are called software as a service (SaaS). There are various platforms providing SaaS solutions for type of business from marketing to IT, and to payments — for example, Crassula is providing SaaS solutions in this area.
Everyone starts using cloud systems. Here are some advantages of it for those who are still unsure whether or not they should move to the cloud service too:
It saves you time and money
It might seem difficult at first to implement a cloud-based server into your business, but the simplicity of its use will be efficient time- and money-wise. The cloud system allows to access company’s data quickly and without the need of being in the office — great solutions for companies whose employees work remotely — especially developers! The time efficiency helps to launch the project fast, and the pay-as-you-go option means that if you decide to stop using cloud software, your money will not be dropped off.
It creates flexibility
The great feature of using cloud services is that they can be accessed from any device — would it be laptop or a smartphone. With this, company’s information and data can be accessed by its employees during holidays, travel or just by those who work on remote. It’s no secret that work from home increases employees satisfaction due to a better work-life balance!
It prevents data loss
When all of company’s data is stored on in-house computers, it is under a big risk of being all lost in case of an error. As it might have become clear, the cloud service stores all of the data online, which does not go under effect of internet connection or computer damage — therefore, it eliminates the possibility of losing it.
