CLOUD BASED SERVICES FOR SMALL BUSINESSES

Why and how to step into the cloud


In this fast-moving digital age, small and medium-sized businesses and enterprises need to stay up to speed. More and more SMEs are choosing cloud solutions, like Microsoft Office 365, to deal with huge volumes of data, work efficiently, improve security, control costs and minimise risks. The team at Konica Minolta understand the smaller business needs and plans. We are ready to help organisations take to the cloud technology with confidence.

The main challenges in the digital age without a cloud storage solution


  1. Especially small businesses in all industries have to deal with huge amounts of data, arriving through various channels: phone calls, emails, letters, online forms, apps and social media. This flood of business data is challenging for workers.

  2. It might also be a challenge for SMEs to efficiently operate and keep your existing IT infrastructure up to date and running to avoid downtime and negative business impact.

  3. Lack of mobility means that SMEs can't work in real time from any office, on any device. This holds companies back and prevents seamless cooperation.

  4. Other issues faced by SMEs are privacy and security breaches, due to e.g. not patched software. Using cloud security can be delivered to a higher level in many cases than could be provided in house. Especially for SMEs which are not able to allocate sufficient inhouse resources to data security cloud solutions can prevent severe consequences to the business caused by data breaches.


Loss of customers


All these challenges can be answered by flexible cloud-based services that take away uncertainty and put SMEs in control of their data.
