We’ve helped a number of clients buy software and data storage packages on the Cloud. It has a number of benefits that can provide a significant advantage but, like verything else in life and business, you need to think things through before making a committment.
You should always start with looking at how what you are proposing to do will support your business plan, and be brutally honest about this. In the case of Cloud based computing it is a business tool, so how are you going to use it? Will it be better for you that running the software or data storage on your own equipment? If you can’t use the tool once you’ve bought it, or it doesn’t do what you need it to do, then you have wasted time and money.
To use the Cloud you need to have reliable and fast broadband connection. Now you may have that at base, but what about on the road? If you are going to need to connect while you are out and about, can you use whatever it is that you are buying from internet hotspots or via your dongle/phone?
Our MD blogged about this recently, and here is a link to that post.
