How do Cloud Solutions for Business work?

Simply put it is housing your data in a remote location, and accessing that data and applications by internet connection, instead of storing and operating your data and applications on your local machine, such as desktop PC, laptop or server.

To explain it visually, it is like having access to water through your city plumbing system (cloud), rather then having to dig, secure, and maintain a personal water well (local systems).

What are the benefits of a Hosted Cloud Solution?

• Fully managed, maintained and supported by the Hosted Cloud Services provider
• Accessibility anytime, anywhere from any internet-enabled device.
• Predictable IT budget balanced IT overhead expenses: typically hosted solutions are priced on a per usage model, which allows for consistent and balanced IT expenses month after month
• Eliminating need for more physical space for hardware, such as on-site servers
• Latest technology infrastructure and security ensure your business-critical data and IT systems are more secure than they are currently onsite at your facility.
• Data backup and redundancy planning.
