Managed IT Cloud Solutions

The cloud enables efficient and reliable IT Systems

Why Managed IT Cloud Solutions?

Every business needs to have efficient and reliable IT Systems. Like it or not, Cloud Computing or Cloud Storage is here and it’s not going away. The cloud enables efficient and reliable IT Systems for very little cost with little requirement for user intervention

What are the Pros and Cons of data storage options?

Opinions about the benefits and risks of cloud storage and applications vary widely and differ from business case to business case. We recognise that there are some situations where a hybrid solution is justified. However, the future trend for both is undeniable: managed IT cloud solutions are critical for businesses to thrive.

The bottom line: Implemented properly, housing your data or applications in the cloud is as secure as having it onsite on your own server. Turn on the readily available cloud-based security tools and it is arguably more secure than having your data and applications on an onsite server.
