Cloud Computing / Software as a Service (SaaS)

Cloud computing provides software applications without the need for local installation.  Software as a Service or Saas, caters to these demands by providing these applications online. There are many advantages to Cloud Computing:

• Reduced Cost
  Cloud technology is paid incrementally, saving organizations money
• Increased Storage
  Organizations can store more data than on private computer systems
• Highly Automated
  No longer do IT personnel need to worry about keeping software up to date
• More Mobility
  Employees can access information wherever they are through a secure Internet connection
• Allows IT to Shift Focus
  No longer having to worry about constant server updates and other computing issues, organizations will be free to concentrate on innovation

Many businesses, large and small, can instantly obtain the benefits of the enormous infrastructure without having to implement and administer it directly. As the need for resources increases, companies can add additional service as and when needed from the cloud computing vendor without having to pay for additional hardware.

Powerful Internet Connection Required – Although Internet connections are available almost everywhere, the rate of the connection may be inadequate. Some areas can’t provide strong Internet connections to support SaaS applications.  Fortis Telecom solves this problem with a state-of-the-art hybrid wireless/fiber-optic network.
