Executives who are starting to look at Cloud Solutions to resolve their Business Problems often ask themselves the following key questions.

1. Performance - Will using a solution that is hosted somewhere else be a lot slower than using my company's existing system?
   Many companies large and small already use off-site data centers which shows a confidence in their bandwidth and the performance it provides.  Connecting to the cloud is no different.    Diving further into the actual performance within the cloud, the benefit of dynamically allocating resources to the highest priority applications is quickly realized.  The pay as you need model lets a company efficiently and cost effectively expand and contract to ever changing performance needs without seeing resources go wasted.
   
   
2. Data Security - How an I be sure that the data will be secure on the cloud?
   Cloud service and product providers incorporate a wide range of security rigor into their solutions.  As with the purchase of any strategic solution, the buyer must beware and mindful of the security risks when purchasing such products and services.  A solid understanding of cloud security issues combined with a thorough due diligence analysis of the candidate IaaS/SaaS solution providers are critical prerequisites to ensure brand and operational integrity.  CloudGarage offers the necessary expertise and knowledge to assist our clients with making these critical choices.  CloudGarage for its own SaaS products follows strict processes to ensure the highest security measures are in place to protect its customers data.
3. Implementation Time - This sounds interesting but how long will it take to get up and running compared to more traditional systems?
   Thanks to the openness and the instant scalability of the Cloud Based technologies CloudGarage has seen a dramatic improvement in Project Development time and Project Roll-outs with up to 75% improvements on existing traditional Enterprise Software solutions.  On top of the initial roll out any system maintenance is done centrally so there are no lengthy waits while people upgrade clients, it all happens in an instant.
   
   
4. Cost Structures - How do I pay for such a system?
   Cloud Computing is an on-demand service so users just pay for what they require.  This allows Enterprises to be as flexible as they can with their deployment of solutions as they can ramp up usage or lower it as and when they require.  This takes out the heavy up front costs associated with traditional Enterprise Software solutions.  This also carries a certain level of risk as to obtain better conditions companies often buy upfront what they think they will use in the mid-term.  The reality is that
   the licenses never get used and sit on the shelf.  CloudGarage strongly believes in the on-demand model and will study with its customers a pricing model that fits the requirements.
   
   
5. Existing Systems - I have so much data and information in my existing systems, can they be integrated?
   Cloud Solutions are often deployed to extract more value from existing systems.  Data that until now has been locked up in older systems can now be integrated into a cloud and made available to people or other systems where ever they are in the world.  All this occurs without disrupting (if necessary) consolidated processes.  Companies find that innovative Cloud products such as those provided by CloudGarage allow them to automate processes that thought were impossible whilst integrating into existing systems.  This allows existing systems a new lease of life and means that years of development is not thrown away as all the data residing in them can be used in the new Cloud based products.
