5 Ways to get your Business into the Cloud

Cloud adoption is steadily growing and onboarding your organisation will be a key differentiator that will keep a competitive edge in today’s fast paced market.
We have outlined 5 practical ways for small firms to embrace cloud services to improve business ROI and optimise workflows.
Cloud Storage
The main benefit of cloud storage is the access the employees have to content when and where and however they need it. Concerns over security in the cloud is a thing of the past as data storage is regulated by the highest standards so you never have to worry about who can access your private data.
Email and Office Tools
Forget the hosting and servers, licensing software, or upgrades to your infrastructure. If you're not hosting your email, calendars, contacts and chat through either Google Apps for Business, Microsoft's Office 365 or a similar service provider, then you are wasting your time on unnecessary hassles and expenses.
