- 1. Cloud Computing Software As A Service SaaS Hosted Applications
- 2. Three Types Of Cloud Services • Infrastructure - clusters or virtualized servers, networks, storage and systems software designed to augment or replace the functions of an entire data center. • Platform - Provides virtualized servers on which users can run existing applications or develop new ones without having to worry about maintaining the operating systems, server hardware, load balancing or computing capacity • Software - SaaS provides all the functions of a sophisticated traditional application, but through a Web browser, not a locally-installed application
- 3. Cloud Computing 101 • More productivity • Save money • Less hassle • Others manage the tech stuff. You run your business.

Cloud Services for Small Business • Your phone system (Ring Central, Grasshopper, Verizon) • Your office suite (Microsoft Office 365, Google Apps, Zoho) • Your file sharing (Dropbox, SugarSync, Mozy, Egnyte) • Your finances (Quickbooks Online, Outright, Freshbooks) • Your CRM & Contact Management (Infusionsoft, SalesLogix, ACT!) • Your Security (Symantec, Carbonite, others)
- 13. Cloud Security • Have complex passwords and change them regularly • Audit your data (is data missing?) • Review your vendors
- 14. A few more tips • Educate yourself and your staff - learn more than the basics of your cloud services • Can your cloud services integrate with other services or data sources (no information silos)
- 15. ….and a bit more • Cloud computing comes alive with mobile technology • Test cloud computing services (did that Dropbox file sync?) • Free is not always the best • Don’t have too many redundant services
