Everything IT

1. Less need for hardware meaning less capital expenses and less money spent on infrastructure
2. You pay as you go when you used cloud-based solutions
3. You pay a subscription license to utilize the application versus buying the entire software
4. All you need to access cloud based solutions is the internet-all the hardware, and infrastructure is hosted by a third party
5. Because these cloud-based applications are shared by thousands of customers, your cost or total cost of ownership is minimal compared to if you hosted the solution on your own
6. You’ll always be running on the latest and most updated version as automatic upgrades will be pushed out from the provider
7. You can access the applications anytime and anywhere
8. When you free up resources on maintenance, hardware and infrastructure from using cloud based solutions, you can actually focus on innovation, business process improvement and strategy
9. Cloud based applications are usually more heavily encrypted
10. An entire team is solely dedicated to keeping your data secure because this is all they do, compared to your company’s traditional IT team that has a million things to focus on at one time.
