Many companies are now migrating their services to use cloud based software. Cloud based software has many advantages such as flexibility and disaster recover. Software that is ran on a local computer or stored on a physical server in your office can become corrupt or lost entirely should you have a fire, theft or some other sort of disaster and recovering that information can be costly. Sometimes you may find that the information cannot be recovered which can be detrimental to a business and has been known to cause businesses to go under and have to close down.

Cloud computing offers a safety net when it comes to disaster recovery as the data is not stored on one physical computer, it is essentially stored “in the cloud” meaning it can be accessed from many places should you need to.

Research shows that on average a company that uses cloud computing can recover data 4 times quicker than those who don’t.
