WikitipThe 3 Greatest Reasons to Move to the CloudI would like to thank one of my readers for asking me what are the three greatest reasons a business should move to the cloud. I have discussed both the benefits and disadvantages of cloud adoption, but it is time to bring some perspective on the matter from the point-of-view of those who have not yet moved to the cloud. Obviously, each business has its own priorities and decides what is important, so it is quite a challenge to come up with some criteria that would apply in all situations. However, this is the nature of cloud computing, its characteristics are universally beneficial. I believe that all businesses could benefit from the advantages below, making these the top three reasons for any business to move to the cloud.
What about you? What are the top 3 reasons for your company to move to the cloud?
