      Performance

      Migrating to the cloud can improve overall user experience. Data will be available much quicker than if it were coming from multiple on-premise servers meaning page loading times will be considerably lowered.

      Scalability

      Where you’d previously be required to purchase and set up physical servers to support larger workloads, the cloud can scale up easily to support your organisation through times of growth. With companies such as Apple, Netflix and eBay, all using cloud computing, you can be sure that the cloud can accommodate for any amount of growth you project.

      Security

      Migrating to the cloud offers your organisation much greater security than on-premise infrastructure by storing all your data centrally in an established facility. Unwanted users won’t be able to access your data due to the continued and consistent security updates that will be implemented instantaneously without you having to lift a finger.
