Cloud Technology Articles

The Cloud is a collection of computing devices that reside outside of their office or off their physical computers. Pretty simple? Trust me; us IT people can make things more complicated. We want to keep this simple for your clients. OK… you and your clients need more information than just a simple yes.  But, for those busy people with a To-Do list a mile long, there’s your answer; yes, the Cloud can help with the cybersecurity and physical security of your clients’ technology infrastructure and important data. Now, for those people who crave more information, here it is.  Back to the question at hand. Can the Cloud help with your clients’ IT security?

While you have the business understanding and skills to run a Managed IT Services company, you may have problems meeting your long-term goals to increase your revenue and profits each year. If you want your MSP business to grow beyond where you are now, all you need to do is to make a few changes in the way you package your services. A recurring revenue model is the key to doing this. But you must make it work for you, not bog you down with unnecessary manhours that cost you in time and money.

Using the Cloud is a secure choice for most small and mid-sized businesses. The Cloud offers a substantial increase in security for all of their IT resources. As an MSP, you probably get calls all the time from clients and prospects who are worried about their cybersecurity. And one of the best ways to help them keep their data safe is by partnering with the right Cloud Service Provider (CSP). We’ll tell you how in this article. It’s been proven, over and over again, that the Cloud is more secure than the best on-premise server solutions.

The Cloud follows a pay-as-you-go pricing model. Your clients only pay for what they use. This includes compute power and licenses. I frequently get asked by MSPs, “What do I tell my clients about the cost savings with the Cloud?” There are many, but here are a few: no capital costs, pay-as-you-go services, increased collaboration, and increased productivity.

This is a question we get asked all the time; why an MSP should purchase cloud services from us for their clients instead of using AWS or the Microsoft Cloud? Here’s the first reason… We’ve been in the IT industry for over 30 years and in the cloud space for over 20, and we were a very successful MSP in the past. So, we understand what it takes to be a successful MSP in the cloud space. Some cloud providers are so large that when you contact them, you could be hanging in level-one support for a week before your issue is escalated. In the meantime, you or your customers are left without the vital cloud solutions you require.

Whether they rely on cloud computing or not, your clients must be vigilant about cybersecurity. The Cloud is as safe as they make it. Cyberattacks, ransomware, data breaches… These are all part of our everyday vocabulary. But they don’t need to be. Not with the help of the Cloud and proper security solutions. Learn here how using the Cloud can protect your clients’ businesses. We’re going to examine how the Cloud and little bit of cyber TLC can keep your clients off the front page of local and even national newspapers.

Below are some reasons why you should be selling cloud-based backup and disaster recovery services to your clients.

In this article, we’re going to examine how “the Cloud” can help your clients attract and retain superstar employees and keep their data secure when employees leave, especially the bad ones. We’ve all been there. You wake up one morning, and there’s an email sitting in your inbox from your best tech employee. Or you get ambushed by the star team member of your IT department when you walk in the front door…“I’m quitting; I got a better job somewhere else.” Staff members come and go. We hope to hold onto the great ones. But this is hard to do, especially in today’s economy where you have a better chance of striking oil than you do landing that superstar employee you can build your company on.
