How can cloud communication help your business?

Most businesses have heard of the term cloud communication but few actually understand the benefits that it can bring – it’s no surprise that those who have already adopted some type of cloud communication technology have seen a great amount of improvement in their turnover and customer numbers. Better technology brings better opportunities, it’s as simple as that – but how can cloud communication help your business? First off, it’s good to understand exactly what cloud communication is.

What is cloud communications?

At a basic level, cloud communication refers to data that is primarily hosted and stored over the internet. While initially, this meant that just data was stored, over the past few years it has evolved to include VoIP (voice over internet protocol) which has become a large part of the cloud.

Business transition to the cloud is growing, so much so that Forbes recently reported that 83% of enterprise workloads will be in the cloud by 2020.

What does cloud communications look like for your business?

It’s all well and good understanding the terminology behind cloud communication and cloud-based phone systems but what does it actually look like for your business?

VoIP (voice over internet protocol) as mentioned above, is one type of technology that is making a big difference. With the removal of traditional ISDN lines hitting in 2025, VoIP is not only helping businesses to prepare for its removal but also cuts the need for expensive hardware and maintenance which can take up valuable space and be costly to support.

The power of the cloud also allows you and your team to answer calls from anywhere on almost any device, giving you great flexibility to work how you like to work and not be restricted by the technology you employ.

VoIP is scalable as well, which means that if you’re looking to quickly build on your existing inbound sales team then you can quickly ramp up without worrying about the cost of additional hardware.

For any IT department, VoIP keeps your business at the cusp of technology, for finance, it can be a cost-effective solution and for any business owner, VoIP can be the complete package, bringing tech, flexibility, reliability and scalability to your business without the burden of additional hardware and increasing costs. For businesses of any size, VoIP and its use of cloud communication technology should be a viable solution to the way you operate moving forward.
