Your Business Isn't Using the Cloud? What Are You Waiting For?

Studies have shown in recent months that the majority of consumers don’t really entirely understand Cloud computing. In fact, 9 out of 10 American consumers claim not to use Cloud computing, yet all of them had used the Cloud in some form or another in the past year without knowing it.

The caveat, then, is whether this knowledge gap transcends to the business leadership in the corporate space.

If we look at the present state of the corporate Cloud environment, it seems that the trends point to more of a misunderstanding than a lack of knowledge.

While the Cloud represents unprecedented accessibility, scalability and utility, the vast majority of business owners still opt against it for an increasingly popular reason: Cost.

This reluctance toward Cloud adoption due to financial concerns is therefore a puzzling matter, as it would most likely actually prove more cost effective.

Here at eTransmittal, we provide a Cloud-based service, or rather Software as a Service (SaaS) with very clear benefits to businesses as both an online collaboration tool and an FTP Replacement option for file sharing.

We ourselves use the Cloud for our operational purposes and we’ve enjoyed the cost-savings and efficiency benefits. But even our own testimonial aside, still many more Cloud-savvy companies are raving about the new tech trend. Granted, the Cloud may not be right for everyone, but we might be so bold as to append a big “Yet” to that statement.

The focus in this scenario should be squarely on the small business, as they stand to gain the most from leveraging Cloud computing. While still very much a generic term, the Cloud represents a fresh, flexible technology that truly levels the playing feel in today’s corporate space.

Small businesses who adopt Cloud computing technologies can overcome barriers and operate with a level of efficiency that empowers them to keep pace with their larger counterparts.

Whether or not business leaders in our ever-evolving technological economy are getting a good grasp on Cloud computing won’t be an issue for much longer. Like any other widespread technological advent, the Cloud will become more approachable as the early adopters revel in their successes.
