No one will doubt that cloud applications were responsible for ensuring business continuity during the pandemic restrictions. Their first great advantage is the ease with which they allow remote work to be carried out.

What is the difference between on-premise and cloud?

• Cloud applications are those that allow you to store and access your data over the Internet.
• On premise software is the one that is installed on your company's servers or computers. It implies a physical access to the information.

At Etixen we are convinced that today, cloud applications can bring major advantages to your business. That's why we want to tell you about some of them:

Advantages of cloud applications 

Productivity

Applications are more likely to be connected to each other and create a business ecosystem. People can always be in contact and collaborate with each other: on documents, tasks, contacts, among others. The ability to store and retrieve data with just a few clicks optimizes time and workflows. In addition, being intuitive applications and with a small learning phase, work teams adapt more quickly.

Work from anywhere

2020 made it clear to us how important this point is. Workers must continue to have access to the data they need to carry out their work regardless of the circumstances or place where they are. In addition, they should be able to access them in a simple way, from any device they have (for example, mobile applications).

Scalability: grow with your business

The applications adapt to the stages of your company, and not your team to the solutions. You hire what you need and without thinking about hiring other infrastructure "just in case" your company grows. You pay for what you use and need, having the possibility to expand and reduce it whenever and in a few steps.

Priorities

Your human resources are in charge of doing the job they were hired to do. They should not do additional research or support activities. They have the task of adding value to the business activities. Support is provided by a solution partner.

Safeguarding and updating

The data in the cloud will always be available, even if a device is damaged. In addition, you don't have to worry about updates, since they are performed by the provider without interrupting the service.

Security

Although it is often believed that this is not the case, cyber attacks are more likely to occur if the data is stored on servers within the company. In the case of cloud applications, the data is located in maximum security centers managed by experts. Also, most software allows the implementation of advanced security measures.

When we migrate to the cloud, these are the crucial points to define for our customers. The ones that give certainty about the decision taken.

Cloud applications are beneficial both for work teams in general and for IT teams, which can optimize their work. When choosing, you need to think about the company structure and processes you want to improve. With cloud applications, progress is guaranteed.
