Four Reasons to Trust the Cloud with Your Business Data

Cloud technology plays a key role in maximizing efficiency for contractors.

By AccuLynx.

The cloud is an intangible place where digital information and data is stored. More businesses are beginning to move their data into the cloud for storage and backup. Let’s look at the benefits:

1. Your data is always accessible to you One of the biggest benefits to having data in the cloud is accessibility. Traditional onsite storage means that you must be in the office to access company information, or connect through a complicated virtual private network that can have high yearly fees to maintain.
2. Your data is secure The cloud is all about replication. Your data is housed on large servers in multiple geographic locations and maintained by industry leaders like Amazon. It’s built on redundancy – your data won’t ever be lost or deleted. Data storage companies maintain strict regulatory security and compliance, meaning that your data has the highest level of protection.
3. Storage space is growing No longer do you need to worry about finding space for bulky filing cabinets and boxes of files. As your digital storage needs grow, the cloud scales with you. Often better pricing is available for larger amounts of online storage.
4. No maintenance required Data service providers handle daily maintenance, updates and new feature rollouts.
