It’s Time to Get Your Technology Out of the Closet
By: John Brady - Fox River Networks
The Internet continues to change the way we use computers in our homes and in our offices. All around us you will find improvements in Internet access, speed and availability. Small business people can take advantage of these improvements to connect themselves to each other while on the road or at their desk.
The greatest operational challenges that face most smaller businesses revolve around technology. You need to be connected but also mobile. You don’t want to invest in technology that locks you down. You may not have the human resources to set up and maintain the infrastructure needed to help you accomplish you business goals.
Web based applications can be the right solution for you.
Small businesses benefit from using Software as a Service (SaaS). What is SaaS? It is typically any application that is hosted outside your local area network and you use from an available Internet connection. Most of these applications fulfill general needs that face both individuals and small businesses. SalesForce.com and QuickBooks Online are prime examples of these types of applications.
The benefit to you is that you have increased access to these applications and they are maintained by the company that hosts them. Most are priced monthly per user, so you only pay for what you need.
There are also an increasing number of FREE services to help your business increase it’s mobility and flexibility. Google has done a very impressive job of creating solutions to fill these needs without the normal costs associated when choosing a commercial vendor.
