How Cloud & Security services help the MSME Sector.

If you own an MSME business, this is the perfect time to switch to cloud and security services. It is an upgrade long overdue.

The market for cloud services is foreseen to increase to $125 billion by 2016, as per Parallels SMB Cloud Insights for Global Markets 2016. Business applications and infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) providers will account for 67 per cent of the market.

The cloud provides a smarter and leaner IT solution for MSMEs, lowering costs and increasing productivity. MSMEs can benefit from the cloud in a variety of ways, including increased data protection, reduced downtime, flexible storage, CRM management, resource efficiency, and remote computing.

As an entrepreneur, you must constantly be on a quest to stay updated and increase profits without sacrificing quality, cost, or efficiency. Cloud provides a potential alternative to achieve all of these objectives with much more flexibility and ease.

Here’s a glimpse at the key advantages of cloud and security for your company:

 

1. Enables Remote Access

To get started with the cloud, all you need is a suitable device and an active internet connection. Cloud technologies enable you to work from anywhere at any time, which is especially beneficial for small enterprises that move offices frequently. Part-time workers benefit greatly from working remotely because they may go home and work from there, maximizing their time.

 

2. Enhanced Security

Security breaches are a public concern that every company must address. When it comes to MSMEs, however, they have serious ramifications on the brand image. They are under pressure to generate goodwill in the market and to stand out in order to prosper.

According to the rule of diffusion, organizations must first gain the trust of innovators and early adopters in order to survive and prosper. In order to acquire this trust, data security is critical.

The security of a company’s data is considerably enhanced by cloud technology. Experts in the cloud take custody of your data to encrypt and secure it against intruders. An added advantage of using the cloud is that your data is always backed up.

 

3. Software Management Simplified

Using the public cloud to host applications reduces a lot of management work. There used to be multiple stages necessary if your company wanted to employ a new software platform.

You’d start by purchasing the software and the necessary number of licenses.

Then you’d get the gear you’ll need to host it, manage the setup, and deal with any data migration and security issues that arise. It was a significant undertaking that would have to be undertaken on a regular basis when software changes became necessary.

Public cloud computing makes Software as a Service (SaaS) models more accessible. The management of applications hosted in the public cloud is straightforward. The cloud provider handles upgrades and updates, saving your IT department time and effort.

While your organization is free to concentrate on profound strategic topics, you’ll always have access to the latest software facilities or ensure that an updated patch has been implemented.

 

4. Improved Scalability 

Cloud services are scalable and trustworthy. MSMEs can employ cloud solutions to plan for steady and planned expansion. You may simply scale up to the next level of services as your company grows and expands its staff by adding users and servers.

There is no requirement to purchase extra software. It’s the equivalent of hiring an additional room. 

You can scale up or down your business depending on your individual needs. For example, if you plan to launch a viral online campaign and anticipate heavy traffic to your business website or application, you can scale up for a few days and then scale down to your actual plan once the traffic returns to normal.

Traditional software is less stable than cloud solutions. There are no upfront costs, no investments, and very little upkeep. Another important feature that makes cloud systems more dependable is automatic software upgrades.

 

5. Extra Flexibility

Any MSME owner wishing to expand their business should prioritize cutting costs and increasing earnings. You have that opportunity thanks to cloud technology. Through the pay-as-you-use doctrine, your firm can save significant money on the investment.

MSMEs can avoid the trap of advance payments, which has a negative impact on business growth, by incorporating cloud into their business model. Cloud technology is suitable for MSMEs’ ever-changing financial dynamics, since it allows them to scale up or down without incurring additional fees at any time.

 

Conclusion

With the implementation of cloud services and security business models will continue to shift dramatically in our contactless environment. The days of seeing strategies through a transactional lens are long gone. Small businesses must think of themselves as digital businesses, and the cloud is the way to go. 

Small firms will be more in charge of distributing duties efficiently if they foster an ecosystem of innovation by syncing data, strategies, and operating models. As a result, a more rapid and inventive approach to customer experience and business expansion is being used.
