Cloud computing provides many of the features enjoyed by traditional on premise solutions, but relies entirely on your internet connection.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Coincidentally, you may already be computing in the cloud without knowing it.\u00a0 For example, checking your emails on your mobile device, or updating your calendars or CRM like Salesforce, are all cloud based technologies.\u00a0 Today we see the vast majority of businesses have already adopted similar cloud capabilities to address everyday needs, the most common example being email.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Today, businesses are moving more of their operations to the cloud to increase efficiency, minimize operational costs, and provide greater functionality to their employees.\u00a0 However, all benefits aside, there are a number of considerations to keep in mind when transitioning to a predominately cloud infrastructure model.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>Business Continuity:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Investing in a robust business continuity plan is a costly venture that requires considerable capital and expertise to create a proper action plan.\u00a0 Moving your business to the cloud not only helps to avoid a number of up-front costs, but saves in loss of productivity by using an SAAS or cloud based model that brings downtime to nearly zero.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>Security Updates:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another key component of cloud computing to take into consideration is the need to maintain the latest security\/software updates for your servers.\u00a0 With off-site servers managed by the service provider, you no longer need to worry whether your information is being proactively maintained and protected.\u00a0 This allows business owners to focus on what really matters- growing your organization.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>Work from Anywhere:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">One of the most obvious benefits to cloud computing is the ability to work from anywhere with an internet connection.\u00a0 With more services being pushed to the cloud, software providers are accommodating to these changes so access through your mobile devices becomes easier and you have even greater access to your IT investments.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This also allows you to share your work with anyone in the world at any time.\u00a0 Any document uploaded to a cloud-based system does not simply exist in a physical location, but online as well, where you can manage accessibility and control your team\u2019s collaborative process.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>Things to Consider:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While cloud-computing has many benefits, there are a few things to keep under consideration. Though rare, cloud-based systems can go offline..\u00a0 In addition to reliability, ensuring the security of your data and abiding by the requirements of your particular industry may prevent you from utilizing many of today\u2019s most common online platforms.\u00a0 Other items such as available bandwidth and complete software functionality are other considerations to keep in mind while transitioning to a cloud environment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Oftentimes cloud based products are limited in what their on premise counterparts are able to do and can cause a number of headaches for organizations overlooking this.\u00a0 Programs like cloud based QuickBooks are notorious for their limited functionality and can cause more headaches than solutions. Trusting your data to a third-party provider, and picking the right solution to meet your needs can become complicated if you don\u2019t know what to ask or have a clear definition of what you are trying to achieve.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is why TSI has a dedicated staff of certified engineers who have the knowledge to help guide you.\u00a0 Overall, cloud computing makes the lives of businesses easier while also increasing efficiency and accessibility.\u00a0 It is an innovation that has quickly changed the way we work, both on a simple day to day basis and around the world.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For more information on the benefits of migrating your business to the cloud <a href=\"https:\/\/tsisupport.com\/tsistaging\/contact\/\">contact us today!<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"fl-builder-content fl-builder-content-8352 fl-builder-template fl-builder-row-template fl-builder-global-templates-locked\" data-post-id=\"8352\"><div class=\"fl-row fl-row-full-width fl-row-bg-photo fl-node-5ecccdbce25c0 fl-row-default-height fl-row-align-center fl-row-bg-overlay BlogCTA\" data-node=\"5ecccdbce25c0\">\n\t<div class=\"fl-row-content-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"fl-row-content fl-row-fixed-width fl-node-content\">\n\t\t\n<div class=\"fl-col-group fl-node-5ecccdbce2d8e fl-col-group-equal-height fl-col-group-align-center fl-col-group-custom-width fl-col-group-responsive-reversed\" data-node=\"5ecccdbce2d8e\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"fl-col fl-node-5ecccdbce2f49 fl-col-bg-color fl-col-small-custom-width\" data-node=\"5ecccdbce2f49\">\n\t<div class=\"fl-col-content fl-node-content\"><div class=\"fl-module fl-module-heading fl-node-5eccce25ec3d2 sec-title title-img-none\" data-node=\"5eccce25ec3d2\">\n\t<div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n\t\t<h2 class=\"fl-heading\">\n\t\t<span class=\"fl-heading-text\">Confident with Your IT Strategy?<\/span>\n\t<\/h2>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fl-module fl-module-rich-text fl-node-5eccce77546d9\" data-node=\"5eccce77546d9\">\n\t<div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"fl-rich-text\">\n\t<p>If you found the information in this blog post helpful and you'd like to discuss your business' technology strategy, then we'd be happy to hear from you.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fl-module fl-module-button fl-node-5ecccec3237e8 primary-btn\" data-node=\"5ecccec3237e8\">\n\t<div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"fl-button-wrap fl-button-width-auto fl-button-left\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/tsisupport.com\/tsistaging\/contact\/\"  target=\"_self\"  class=\"fl-button\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"fl-button-text\">Get in touch with tsi<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"fl-col fl-node-5ecccf1e8a49c fl-col-bg-color fl-col-small fl-col-small-custom-width\" data-node=\"5ecccf1e8a49c\">\n\t<div class=\"fl-col-content fl-node-content\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"uabb-js-breakpoint\" style=\"display: none;\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cloud computing &#8211; \u00a0simply put &#8211; is internet based computing in lieu of building or maintaining large in-house technology infrastructure.
