The adoption of technology solutions in cloud-based companies fosters the development of the economy and creating jobs directly, while promoting increased productivity and reduced costs in a high percentage.
SMEs, the major beneficiaries
According to the latest study by the National Observatory for Telecommunications and the Information Society (ONTSI) under the title “Report 2015 Cloud Computing”, the implementation of technology solutions based on the cloud is a benefit for the proper functioning of the economy in general and businesses in particular. Over the last year 2015, 15% of Spanish companies acquired some cloud service. Of these, 71% of purchases were on e-mail services, 64% for file storage, 57% to services server database, 29% to office software, 27% of applications manage information about customers and 23% to accounting software and/or finance. Thus, migration to cloud computing continues to rise, something we can understand the basis of the findings generated by the study ONTSI.
5 Benefits of migration to the cloud
This report concludes that small and medium enterprises opting for cloud migration out especially benefit from its advantages because the productivity of workers simultaneously to reduce computing costs way increases. ONTSI defines five concrete benefits that the adoption of cloud computing brings to the companies:
1. Promotion of mobility. Cloud solutions allow you to work from anywhere, using any terminal for this (smartphone, tablet, computer).
2. Increased flexibility, while cloud computing formula favors the pay per use, which allows you to scale the services contracted based on the specific needs of each SME.
3. Both factors, greater mobility and flexibility, result in increased productivity, enhanced by remote access, connected equipment or tools for collaborative work.
4. Also the security of data and information is enhanced because the companies providing these services cloud computing, aware of its importance, “offer a very high safety standards in communications, data and equipment.”
5. Greater economic savings for businesses, both ICT personnel costs (31%) and hardware and software investment (40%) and energy (80%).
