How Cloud Solutions Can Save Your Portland, Oregon Business Time and Money
Small businesses in Portland need every edge they can get.
Enter cloud solutions—a game-changer for anyone looking to streamline operations and reduce costs. Whether you’re a small legal practice or a boutique retail shop, shifting to the cloud can provide you with flexibility, scalability, and, most importantly, savings.
Leasing Capability vs Owning Assets
Why buy a server when you just rent the service? Why own a phone system when you can just use its capabilities? Why manage something yourself when somebody else can manage it for you?
Ultimately, these are the questions cloud computing attempts to answer. The answers aren’t right for everyone — sometimes, there is a strategic interest in owning assets — but, most often, for most small businesses, ownership comes at a high cost for managing IT assets. That cost for a qualified, modern technology professional could easily range from $90k-$500k per year. Looking at those numbers, comparing that cost (ownership, maintenance) against leasing capability starts making a lot more sense.
