Storage as a Service Can Maximize Your Company’s Potential

Cloud Data Storage: Storage as s Service (StaaS) is an attractive option for small to mid-size businesses

Storage as a Service or StaaS offers small businesses a way to “pay as you go” for cloud data storage via a monthly subscription fee.  It’s a useful and convenient way to manage backups and document sharing, and is typically less expensive than creating your own storage infrastructure.  StaaS is a great service for small to mid-size companies that have only a small or even no IT team in-house.

Affordable IT: StaaS in Cloud Computing

Your data is stored securely in the cloud, rather than on a physical server, and your provider typically charges based on how much data you have there.  It’s important to keep in mind that you need ample and reliable internet bandwidth to use Storage as a Service.

When you need a data storage service, StaaS offers many benefits.

Four benefits of Storage as a Service (StaaS):

1. Cost Savings – Until recently IT departments had to estimate how much storage they would need for the upcoming year and then pre-purchase for that amount.  Now you can pay as you go.  That means your money isn’t tied up in storage you are not using.  And, since storage costs generally go down over time, you’ll save even more money by only adding capacity as you need it.

1. Easy Setup For A Small Office IT Infrastructure. The initial setup is faster and easier than buying your own equipment.

1. Cloud computing scalability benefits – You pay only for the data storage you need, but can quickly increase your capacity as your storage needs grow.

1. Reliable and Efficient Backups. When backups are cloud based, there is always a copy of your data offsite.  You can also combine this with a hybrid on-premise and cloud-based solution for the ultimate solution. We’ll suggest the best cloud backup solutions for your budget and needs.
