The Benefits of Cloud Computing

Cloud computing has been revolutionary in the world of business. Many businesses have already switched to the cloud and are enjoying all the benefits it brings. At Midland Networks, we offer a unique hosted desktop service that can bring the maximum benefits of cloud computing to your business.

Cloud computing is an extremely flexible solution. It has the capability to instantly meet the changing demands of your business. Our remote servers have a vast capacity, which allows you to enjoy greater bandwidth and storage whenever it’s needed. Your cloud-based applications can be accessed on virtually any device and at any location, providing there is an internet connection. So, if you need to support a flexible and remote workforce then cloud-computing is the ideal option.

When businesses switch to cloud computing, they tend to notice a huge uplift in performance. With the benefit of much greater bandwidth than the typical on-premises solution, applications are able to run much faster and internet browsing speeds are significantly improved.

Cloud computing also offers robust business protection. Switching to the cloud means that you no longer have to worry about complex disaster recovery plans. Since we host the service for you, we will ensure that all of your files are backed up and replicated and deal with any issues as they arise. Our data centre is monitored around the clock by skilled engineers, ensuring that any issues are detected early and promptly resolved. We carry out all ongoing maintenance work, to ensure the systems continue to deliver the best possible performance. In the event of loss or theft of a device, you will not lose your data. Because it is stored safely in the cloud, you will still be able to access it.

With cloud computing, your employees will be able to sync and access documents and apps simultaneously. This is a great way to promote enhanced collaboration and build team working skills. It can also lead to greater overall productivity and efficiency.

If you’re keen to future-proof your business then cloud computing can help you achieve this. We replace our servers every few years to ensure that you are always running on the latest equipment, and that you always benefit from the best possible performance. This is something that most businesses are not able to do themselves, as it would be financially unviable.

All these benefits make cloud computing an extremely cost-effective solution. Because we take care of all regular software updates as well as ongoing maintenance and support, you will no longer have the cost of maintenance contracts, onsite IT support staff or emergency engineers. You will also save a significant amount of money on the cost of equipment, as this will be housed by us. With fixed monthly payments, you get real value for money and straightforward budget planning.
