5 Ways Moving To The Cloud Can Stimulate Business

Hi all. Found an excellent article that I am sure many will relate to. Hope you get something useful out of this...

Offering significant cost savings, increased collaboration and painless cloud backup, cloud technology can really help your business. If you're weighing up the pros and cons of moving to the cloud, here's a look at five important ways the cloud can help stimulate business growth.

Shortened Development Cycles

Cloud-based systems allow for universal access, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. This ability to collaborate anytime, anywhere can give your business a competitive edge. According to a new report by Harvard Business Review Analytic Services, 72 per cent of the respondents said collaboration was a top benefit of investing in cloud technology. In the report one survey respondent said "that cloud allows business operations to more quickly share information and work cooperatively, while another noted that cloud has given the marketing department the ability to work more closely with engineering, sales and the service department".

Improved Communications Methods

Do you run a virtual office? The good news is that the cloud can bring together employees and contractors in multiple locations in real-time. Using a variety of cloud-based services and collaboration tools, employees can set up meetings, pitch ideas, give feedback and share documents wherever they are – be it in the office, at home or on the road.
