Here are six common reasons organizations turn to the cloud:<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<h4>Cost<\/h4>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Cloud computing eliminates the capital expenditures and resources needed to run and manage your own infrastructure. The cost of hardware, software, utilities, and on-site management of servers adds up fast.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<h4>Speed<\/h4>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Most cloud computing services are provided self-service and on demand. Even vast amounts of computing resources can be provisioned in minutes, typically with just a few clicks, giving businesses plenty of flexibility and taking the pressure off capacity planning.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<h4>Global Scale<\/h4>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Cloud computing services include the ability to scale elastically. In cloud speak, that means delivering the right amount of IT resources. For example, choosing computing power, storage, bandwidth right when it\u2019s needed, and from the right geographic location.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<h4>Productivity<\/h4>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>On-site data centers typically require heavy \u201cracking and stacking\u201d hardware setup, software patching, and other time-consuming IT management duties. Cloud computing removes the need for many of these tasks so IT teams can work towards more important business goals.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<h4>Performance<\/h4>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Cloud computing services run on a worldwide network of secure data centers that use the latest generation of computing hardware. This global network provides your application\u2019s users with the reduced network latency they have come to expect. As your user base shifts geographically, your cloud infrastructure can too.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<h4>Security<\/h4>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Cloud providers typically offer a broad set of policies, technologies, and controls that strengthen your overall security posture. These tools protect your data, apps, users, and infrastructure from potential threats.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<h4>Types of Cloud Computing<\/h4>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Not all clouds are the same and not one type of cloud computing is right for everyone. Several different models, types, and services have evolved to help offer the right solution for your needs.\u00a0First, you need to determine the type of cloud deployment, or cloud computing architecture, that your cloud services will be implemented on. There are four different ways to deploy cloud services: on a public cloud, private cloud, multi-cloud, or hybrid-cloud.<\/p>\n<p>We are proud to have been providing the 3CX Phone System to North and South America since 2006.
