A public cloud, when compared to other
cloud service types and a traditional
in-house server, is relatively easy to
set up for your business. You don’t necessarily need any great
technical knowledge and the process is often backed up by
24/7 support from the cloud service provider.
EASE OF USEMobile, home working, collaborations
across other companies and globally and
file sharing are all benefits of using a
public cloud setup. As other companies will also use a public
cloud the integration is relatively seamless and as long as you
have an Internet connection you can stay in touch.
MOBILITYAlthough you still need to
maintain your in-house
computers and devices, using
a public cloud service will drastically cut out the high-end levels
of maintenance that’s usually associated with running your
network. It’s not just the maintenance of the servers either,
consider the saving in not having to maintain a server room,
climate control and so on.
LOW MAINTENANCEAs you are no
doubt aware,
upgrading
software or hardware within a business can be tricky. Updated
software may not work with older versions, hardware may
require more expense to implement and testing times for IT
staff can be long and expensive. A public cloud service cuts
down on the expense and time taken during upgrades, keeping
downtime low. DOWNTIME AND UPGRADESPublic cloud services, by their Pay
as You Go nature, are often contract
free. While that won’t necessarily
impress some business users, others will enjoy the freedom of
not having to commit to a long term contract. NO CONTRACTSAs you are aware by now,
there’s plenty of choice when
it comes to picking a public
cloud service provider. You’re not limited by geographical
location or languages and you’re not limited by what’s available
in terms of IT support or skills in your local area region. PLENTY OF CHOICEPublic Cloud Benefits
