Cloud Services

Cloud services are essential for many businesses because they are delivered via the internet, removing the need for on-site hardware and all its associated problems. Cloud solutions offer an abundance of options to businesses that would otherwise be constrained by hardware or physical office space.  

We are a Surrey-based company offering cloud services to a wide range of businesses across the UK. Yet there are still many companies that continue to operate without cloud. So, if that’s you, ask yourself: 

  • Does having onsite hardware cause your business problems with access and productivity?
  • Do legacy systems prevent you using the latest technology with associated flexibility? 
  • Can you work from anywhere, anytime? 
  • Does your business get disrupted by tech downtime? 
  • Are you and your colleagues struggling with piecemeal systems that don’t work seamlessly together? Do you find it hard to collaborate on work? 
  • Do you worry about the cost of purchasing and maintaining hardware, facilities or utilities?  
  • Are you sure your data is securely stored and handled? 

If the answer is no, or you are unsure on any of these questions, you may want to book our 90-minute discovery workshop. It will benchmark your IT, give you insights into where it isn’t performing and help you work out what to do about it.

What Are Cloud Services?

Cloud services are infrastructure, platforms or software that are hosted by third-party providers and are accessible through the internet. They simplify the flow of user data making applications and resources easily accessible without the need for internal infrastructure or hardware. Most businesses use cloud services throughout the workday, such as Office 365, to help them collaborate and work effectively.

When choosing to leverage cloud services, businesses must decide which type of environment works best for the company. It could be a public cloud, a private cloud, or a mix of both. At Pro Drive IT, we work with you to plan the best cloud services for your Surrey-based business.

Benefits of Cloud-Based IT Services in Surrey

Cloud computing has been around for approximately two decades, and although there are countless benefits for organisations, many businesses continue to operate without it. The cloud delivers far more benefits than the removal of onsite hardware. It ensures you always have the latest technology and that your systems work seamlessly together. Once hosted in the cloud, your systems can be accessed at any time, from any place allowing for flexible, more productive ways of working which is essential given the recent rise in remote working. More benefits of cloud-based IT services in Surrey include:

Efficiency & Cost Reduction

By using a cloud infrastructure, you don’t have to worry or spend huge amounts on purchasing and maintaining equipment. You don’t have to spend on hardware, facilities or utilities and don’t even need to employ large IT teams to handle your data, you can put your trust in the expertise of your cloud provider. Using cloud infrastructure also reduces costs related to downtime, as downtime is rare in cloud systems.

Data Security

Data breaches and other cyber security breaches can happen no matter the size of your business. They can be devastating to a company’s revenue, customer loyalty and brand reputation. Our cloud services offer advanced security features that guarantee your data is securely stored and handled. There is a baseline of protection for cloud platforms including authentication, access control and encryption.

Collaboration

Having cloud environments enables better collaboration across teams in your business. They can all work simultaneously without stepping on each other’s toes. With cloud services by Pro Drive IT, you can keep track of changes whilst avoiding conflicts and confusion with different environments being built specifically for different purposes for your business.

Better Remote Working

Because cloud services are available through the internet, this means employees in your business can work from anywhere in the UK and they can easily access business systems, software, files, data, and communication from wherever they have an internet connection. We can help you plan remote working solutions through cloud IT services, making it possible to scale businesses even if you’re not in the office.

Cloud Services to Streamline Your Business

Our cloud services offer unprecedented flexibility, collaboration and more – to a budget that you determine. We can integrate your software with the cloud to add value to your staff and customers and streamline processes that reduce overheads and give you an advantage on your competitors. We can also move your office 365 to the cloud including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and more without needing to install or update on your desktop again.

Are Cloud Services Secure?

Security need not be a worry when it comes to cloud services for your business. Rest assured that the latest cloud services, delivered by technology leaders, have the best measures in place to protect your valuable data. And for ultimate peace of mind, cloud backup also allows you to retain complete control over your data.

Servers are usually located in warehouses that most workers don’t even have access to. The files stored on these servers are also encrypted. These measures ensure your data is far harder for cyber criminals to access. Here are some of the security measures that we have in place to protect your data:

  • Frequent security updates
  • Built-in firewalls
  • Third-party security testing
  • Encrypted data
  • Data backups

Migration to Cloud-Based Systems

Cloud migration is the process of moving a company’s digital assets, services, databases, IT resources and applications into the cloud. It can also mean moving from one cloud to another. Through our cloud services, we can help you seamlessly and effectively migrate your data from on-site computers onto secure, remote cloud servers. Whether you’re moving to the cloud for the first time or looking to switch providers, we’ll offer all the support and advice you need to formulate a successful cloud migration strategy.

So, if you’re still struggling with on-site hardware and loss of productivity, why not take advantage of the security, scalability, and cost-effectiveness that come with cloud solutions?
